OPERATION
Driving On Slippery Surfaces
Skidding or sliding can cause loss of control or rollover (if tires regain traction unexpectedly). When
operating on slippery surfaces such as ice or loose gravel, reduce speed and use extra caution to
reduce the chance of skidding or sliding out of control. Do not operate on excessively slippery surfaces.
Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet trails or loose gravel, or during freezing
weather, follow these precautions:
1. Do not operate on excessively rough, slippery or loose terrain.
2. Slow down before entering slippery areas.
3. Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and avoiding quick, sharp turns,
which can cause skids.
4. Engage all-wheel drive before wheels begin to lose traction.
5. Correct a skid by turning the steering wheel in the direction of the skid. Never apply the
brakes during a skid.
