Operator Safety
Never touch or remove electrical parts when starting or during
operation of the watercraft. Severe injury or death could result from
electrical shock.
If the watercraft is capsized it
must be uprighted in a clockwise
direction as viewed from the rear
in order to minimize the
possibility engine damage.
Important: Follow engine
draining procedure found on page
93 and 94. B e sure the lanyard is
removed from the engine stop
switch.
Operator and passenger should
keep their feet firmly on the floorboards while the watercraft is in
motion. It is possible to lose your balance, fall overboard, or possibly
injure your feet from objects in the water. The passenger should face
forward and firmly hang onto the operator’s waist except in
towing situations where the spotter faces the rear and uses the grab
handle to hold on.
Never operate the watercraft after sunset or before sunrise. It is
NOT equipped to be ridden in the dark, which makes it unsafe and
illegal to operate.
Be aware of other watercraft, people swimming, and other obstacles
while operating the watercraft and maintain a safe distance. This is
especially important for an i nexperienced operator. A collision can
cause severe injury or death.
Never attempt to lift the watercraft without the aid of a t railer and
winch or other heavy lifting device. Severe back injury or other injury
could result.
