A direct climb could present problems. Choose the
standing position, accelerate before you start the
climb and then reduce accelerator pressure to pre-
vent track slippage.
In either case, the vehicle speed should be as fast
as the incline demands. Always slow down as you
reach the crest. If you cannot proceed further, don't
spin your track. Apply the parking brake, turn the
vehicle off, free the skis by pulling them out and
downhill, place the rear of the snowmobile uphill,
restart the vehicle, release the parking brake and
ease it out with slow, even accelerator pressure.
Position yourself to avoid tipping over, then descend.

Downhill
Downhill driving requires that you have full control of
your vehicle at all times. On steeper hills, keep your
center of gravity low and both hands on the handle-
bar. Maintain slight accelerator pressure and allow
the machine to run downhill with the vehicle operat-
ing. If a higher than safe speed is reached, slow
down by braking but apply the brake with frequent
light pressure. Never lock the track.
Side Hill
When crossing a side hill or traversing up or down-
hill, certain procedures must be followed. All riders
should lean towards the slope as required for stabil-
ity. The preferred operating position is the standing
position, with both feet on the running board that is
facing uphill. Be prepared to shift your weight quickly
as needed. Side hills and steep slopes are not rec-
ommended for a beginner or a novice snowmobiler.
