CLIMBING UPHILL

Use proper riding techniques to avoid vehicle
overturns on hills. Be sure that you can maneu-
ver your ATV well on flat ground before at-
tempting any incline and then practice riding
first on gentle slopes. Try more difficult climbs
only after you have developed your skill. In all
cases avoid inclines with slippery or loose sur-
faces, or obstacles that might cause you to lose
control.
WARNING
Never operate the ATV on hills too steep for
the ATV or for your abilities. The vehicle can
overturn more easily on extremely steep hills
than on level surfaces or small hills. Practice
on smaller hills before attempting large hills.
It is important when climbing a hill to make
sure that your weight is transferred forward on
the ATV. This can be accomplished by leaning
forward and, on steeper inclines, standing on
the footboards and leaning forward over the
handlebars.
