OPERATION
Launching the Watercraft
1. Inspect the drain plugs to ensure they’re securely
installed.
2. Launch the watercraft in an area free of weeds and
debris. Make sure the craft is in at least two feet of
water before starting the engine.
3. Push the rear of the
watercraft up and
down several times
to flush out any sand
that could be trapped
in the pump.
4. Remove the seat to
ventilate the engine
compartment. Reinstall
the seat and latch
securely.
5. Carefully board the watercraft and sit down.
6. Start the engine as outlined beginning on page 57.
Stopping the Engine
Do not turn off the engine until the watercraft has
stopped moving. Your craft requires engine power for
steering, so after the engine has stopped, you’ll lose all
steering control of the watercraft.
1. Release the throttle lever. When the engine has
slowed to an idle and the craft has stopped
moving, push in the stop button. The engine
should stop immediately. You may also stop the
engine by pulling the lanyard lock plate off the
engine stop switch.
2. Be sure the water is at
least two feet (60 cm)
deep when stopping
to prevent debris
from entering
the impeller or
cooling system.
3. Remove the
lanyard lock
plate. Never leave
the lanyard attached to an unattended watercraft.
