Yamaha GRIZZLY Ultramatic YFM660FP Owner's Manual page 103

If your ATV has stalled or stopped and you
believe you can continue up the hill, restart
carefully to make sure you do not lift the front
wheels which could cause you to lose control.
If you are unable to continue up the hill, dis-
mount the ATV on the uphill side. Physically
turn the ATV around and then descend the
hill.
If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT apply
either brake abruptly. If you are in 2WD, apply
only the front brake. When this ATV is in 4WD
or 4WD-LOCK, all wheels (front and rear) are
interconnected by the drive train. This means
that applying either the front brake or the rear
brake will brake all wheels. When descending
hills, using either brake lever or the brake ped-
al will brake the wheels on the downhill side.
Avoid sudden application of either the front or
rear brake because the wheels on the uphill
side could come off the ground. The ATV
could easily tip over backwards. Apply both
the front and rear brakes gradually, or dis-
mount the ATV immediately on the uphill side.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Stalling, rolling backwards or improper-
ly dismounting while climbing a hill.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Could result in ATV overturning.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Use proper gear and maintain steady
speed when climbing a hill.
If you lose all forward speed:
Keep weight uphill.
Apply the brakes.
Shift to the parking position "P" after
you are stopped.
