WARNING
G
Never operate the vehicle on hills too steep
for it or your abilities. The vehicle can over-
turn more easily on extremely steep hills
than on level surfaces or small hills. Prac-
tice on smaller hills before attempting
large hills.
G
Do not drive across the face of a hill. Go
straight up the hill.
G
Never operate vehicles on hills steeper
than 15°.
Before climbing the hill, first be sure you are oper-
ating in low range 4WD or, if necessary, with 4WD
Diff. Lock. To climb a hill, you need traction, mo-
mentum, and steady throttle. Travel fast enough to
keep your momentum going, but not so fast that
you cannot react to changes in the terrain as you
climb. Slow down when you reach the crest of the
hill if you cannot clearly see what is on the other
side – there could be another person, an obstacle,
or a sharp drop off.
