while descending a hill with loose or slippery
surfaces. Braking ability and traction may be
adversely affected by these surfaces. Wrong
braking may also cause a loss of traction If
possible, ride your ATV straight downhill.
Avoid sharp angles which could cause the ATV
to tip or roll over. Carefully choose your path
and ride no faster than you will be able to
react to obstacles which may appear.
