Stalling While Climbing a Hill

Stalling, rolling backwards or improperly dismounting while climbing a hill could cause a rollover.

  • Always maintain a steady speed when climbing a hill.

  • Always engage ADC mode (if equipped) before ascending or descending a hill. If ADC mode is not equipped, apply AWD mode before ascending or descending a hill.

If all forward speed is lost:

  • Lean forward to keep body weight uphill.

  • Apply the brakes.

  • Lock the parking brake when fully stopped.

  • Dismount on the uphill side of the vehicle, or on the left if the vehicle is pointing straight uphill.

  • Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the owner's manual.

If the ATV begins rolling downhill:

  • Keep operator body weight uphill.

  • Never apply engine power.

  • Apply the brake lever gradually.

  • When fully stopped, apply the auxiliary brake as well, and then lock the parking brake.

  • Dismount on the uphill side of the vehicle, or on the left if the vehicle is pointing straight uphill.

  • Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the owner's manual.
