BOMBARDIER Quest Max 2004 Operator's Manual page 54

Uphill
Do not forget, the operator is responsible for the safety of the passenger. In doubt,
disembark the passenger before climbing hill. Always remember that the vehicle
handling, stability and braking distance may be affected when riding with a pas-
senger.
If you decide to keep your passenger, the passenger must synchronize its move-
ments with yours.
Keep your body weight forward towards the top of the hill. Keep your feet on the
footpegs and shift into low gear then accelerate and when necessary, change
gear quickly as you climb. Do not over-speed since this may cause the front of
the vehicle to lift from the ground and fall back on you. If the hill is too steep and
you cannot proceed or the vehicle begins to roll backwards, apply the brake, being
careful not to slide. Dismount, passenger first, then use the "U" turn or "K" turn
(while walking back, next to the vehicle on the up hill side and with a hand on the
brake lever, slowly back the rear of the vehicle toward the top of the hill then drive
downhill). Always walk or dismount on the upside of the slope while keeping clear
of the vehicle and its rotating wheels. Do not try to hold on to the vehicle if it
begins to topple. Stay clear. Do not ride over the crest of the hill at high speed.
Obstacles, including sharp drop-offs, may exist. The passenger should get on the
vehicle only when the vehicle has returned to a safe location.
