• Decrease vehicle speed.
• Use extreme caution.

UPHILL SLOPE

WARNING
Precautions when on an uphill slope:
• Prevent driving on slopes that exceed 20% grade.
• Always examine the terrain carefully before driving on a slope. Do not drive on a slope with
slippery or loose surfaces.
• Keep your feet on the floorboard.
• Drive in a straight line on the slope.
• Prevent driving at an offset angle. An offset angle will cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one
side.
• Continue at a stable rate of speed. Do not accelerate quickly.
• Do not stop a vehicle with a load on a slope. If a vehicle with a load must stop on a slope,
prevent backwards movement or sudden starts or stops.
• Do not go over the top of a hill at high speed. Obstacles, sharp drop-offs, other vehicles, or
persons could be on the other side of the hill.
