necessary, follow these precautions:

2. If operating in 2X4 mode, make sure the differential is locked ( ).
3. Avoid hills with slippery or loose surfaces.
4. Avoid crossing the sides of steep hills.
5. Do not cross a hillside with a passenger on board. Ask the passenger
to dismount and walk across the hillside.
6. Shift your weight uphill.
7. Keep your feet on the footrests.
8. Steer slightly into the hill.
NOTE: If the vehicle begins to tip, quickly turn the front wheel downhill, if
possible, or dismount on the uphill side immediately!
Always follow the procedures

the side of a hill.
Never attempt to turn the
