Going Downhill - Yamaha RHINO YXR66FSEW Owner's Manual

If you start to lose traction or momentum when
climbing, and you decide you will be unable to con-
tinue, use the brakes to come to a stop. Do not at-
tempt to turn the vehicle around. With your foot on
the brake, look behind you and plan your descent.
Shift the drive select lever in reverse so you can
use the engine brake if necessary to slow your de-
scent. Release the brake and begin to coast down
the hill. Use engine braking as much as possible,
gently applying the brakes when necessary.

GOING DOWNHILL

Check the terrain carefully before going down a
hill. When possible, choose a path that lets you
drive your vehicle straight downhill. Avoid sharp
angles that could allow the vehicle to pitch or roll
over. Carefully choose your path and drive no fast-
er than you will be able to react to obstacles that
may appear.
