Braking - Suzuki LT-A450X 2006 Owner's Manual

BRAKING

To stop the vehicle, first release the
throttle lever. Next, apply the front and
rear brakes evenly and at the same
time.
 WARNING
Braking while turning the ATV can
be hazardous.
Use of the brake when turning
could cause the ATV to slide or
roll over.
Use the brakes to slow down
before you begin to turn.
 WARNING
Braking hard on slippery surfaces
can be hazardous.
The ATV can skid and go out of
control if you brake too hard.
Apply the brakes lightly and with
care on slippery surfaces.
 WARNING
Braking on hills when in 4WD can
be hazardous.
When in 4WD, using either the
front brake alone or the rear brake
alone will actually brake all four
wheels. Therefore, any application
of the brakes will result in braking
force being applied to the downhill
wheels. This could cause the vehi-
cle to overturn.
Be extra careful when braking on
a hill when in 4WD.
