uphill.
2. Leave transmission in forward and shut off engine.
3. Dismount on left or uphill side of ATV.
4. Staying uphill of ATV, turn handlebars full left (while facing front of
ATV).
5. While holding service brake, release parking brake lock and slowly
allow ATV to roll around to your right until ATV is pointing across the
hill or slightly downward.
6. Lock the parking brake and remount ATV from the uphill side ,
maintaining body weight uphill.
7. Restart engine with transmission still in forward, release parking
brake, and proceed slowly, controlling speed with the service brake,
until ATV is on reasonably level ground.

Avoid climbing steep hills. Loss of vehicle control or overturning of the
ATV could occur resulting in severe injury or death.
