WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Going down a hill improperly.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Could cause loss of control, passenger ejection (2-UP models) or cause
vehicle to overturn.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Always follow proper procedures for going down hills as described further
in this Operator's Guide. NOTE: A special technique is required when brak-
ing as you go down a hill.
Always check the terrain carefully before you start down any hill. Do not
forget, on 2-UP models, the operator is responsible for the safety of the
passenger. In doubt, disembark him before going down hill. Always re-
member that the vehicle handling, stability and braking distance may be
affected when riding with a passenger.
Shift operator and passenger (2-UP models) weight backward. On 2-UP
models, passenger must hold the grab handles firmly.
Never go down a hill at high speed.
Avoid going down a hill at an angle which would cause the vehicle to lean
sharply to one side. Go straight down the hill where possible.
