RIDING THE VEHICLE
Operator and passenger must keep their body weight rearwards. Ap-
ply the brake gradually to prevent skidding. Do not "coast" down the
slope using solely engine compression or in neutral gear. Try to avoid
steep inclines. If you're not careful, you could tip over when going
down hills.

This vehicle can climb slopes that are steeper than it can safely de-
scend. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that a safe route exists to
descend a slope before you climb it.

This is one of the m m o o s s t t r r i i s s k k y y types of riding because it can drastically
change the balance of the vehicle. It should be avoided whenever pos-
sible. However, if it is necessary to do so, it is important that you AL-
WAYS keep your body weight on the upside of the slope and be
prepared to dismount on that side should the vehicle begin to topple.
Avoid all objects or depressions that will intensify the raising of one
side of the vehicle higher than the other, thus causing rollover.
