When you've selected a safe downhill path, shift into a lower gear,
shift your weight back with your arms extended and braced against
the handlebar, then go down slowly with the throttle closed.
Use mainly the rear brake to control speed. Avoid using either the
front brake or rear brake hard or abruptly when riding down hills.
Remember, braking effectiveness is reduced on any hill with a loose
surface.

Crossing or Turning on Hills or Slopes

Riding on hills or slopes is different from riding on level terrain. Be
careful when riding on any hill. Make sure that you practice on
gentle, smooth slopes before attempting to ride on steeper or more
difficult terrain.
WARNING
Improperly crossing hills or turning on hills
could cause loss of control or cause the ATV to
overturn.
Always follow proper procedures for crossing
or turning on slopes as described in this
owner's manual. Avoid crossing steep hills if
possible.
