If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT apply either brake abruptly. If you are in 2WD, apply only the front brake. If you are in 4WD or 4WD-LOCK, because all wheels are interconnected by the drive train, applying either brake will brake all wheels, therefore, avoid sudden application of either the front or rear brake as the wheels on the uphill side could come off the ground. The ATV could easily tip over backwards. Apply both the front and rear brakes gradually, or dismount the ATV immediately on the uphill side. EWB01351 If you begin rolling backwards: • Keep weight uphill. • 2WD: Never apply the rear brake while rolling backwards. Apply the front brake. • 4WD or 4WD-LOCK: Apply both front and rear brakes gradually. • When fully stopped, shift to the park position. Dismount on uphill side or to a side if pointed straight uphill. Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the Owner's Manual. 7 A WARNING POTENTIAL HAZARD Stalling, rolling backwards or improperly dismounting while climbing a hill. WHAT CAN HAPPEN Could result in ATV overturning. HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD Use the proper gear and maintain a steady speed when climbing a hill. If you lose all forward speed: • Keep weight uphill. • Apply the brakes. • Shift to the park position after you are stopped. 7-24
