OPERATING ON SLIPPERY TERRAIN
Failure to use extra caution when operating on excessively rough, slippery or
loose terrain could cause loss of traction, loss of control, accident or rollover. Do
not operate on excessively slippery surfaces. Always slow down and use
additional caution when operating on slippery surfaces.
Skidding or sliding due to loss of traction can cause loss of control or rollover (if
tires regain traction unexpectedly). Always follow proper procedures for
operating on slippery surfaces as described in this owner's manual.
IMPROPER HILL CLIMBING
Improper hill climbing could cause loss of control or rollover. Use extreme
caution when operating on hills. Always follow proper procedures for hill climbing
as described in this owner's manual.
DESCENDING HILLS IMPROPERLY
Improperly descending a hill could cause loss of control or rollover. Always
follow proper procedures for traveling down hills as described in this owner’s
manual.
STALLING WHILE CLIMBING A HILL
Stalling or rolling backwards while climbing a hill could cause a rollover. Maintain
a steady speed when climbing a hill.
If you lose all forward speed:
Apply the brakes gradually until the vehicle is fully stopped. Place the
transmission in reverse and slowly allow the vehicle to roll straight downhill while
applying light brake pressure to control speed.
If you begin rolling downhill:
Never apply engine power. Apply the brakes gradually until the vehicle is fully
stopped. Place the transmission in reverse and slowly allow the vehicle to roll
straight downhill while applying light brake pressure to control speed.
