Yamaha KODIAK ULTRAMATIC YFM400FA Manuel Du Propriétaire page 42

Never operate the ATV on hills too steep for
the ATV or for your abilities. Practice on
smaller hills before attempting larger hills.
Always follow proper procedures for climb-
ing hills as described in this manual. Check
the terrain carefully before you start up any
hill. Never climb hills with excessively slip-
pery or loose surfaces. Shift your weight
forward. Never open the throttle suddenly.
Never go over the top of a hill at high speed.
Always follow proper procedures for going
down hills and for braking on hills as de-
scribed in this manual. Check the terrain
carefully before you start down any hill.
Shift your weight backward. Never go down
a hill at high speed. Avoid going down a hill
at an angle that would cause the vehicle to
lean sharply to one side. Go straight down
the hill where possible.
