How to Start Engine
WARNING
Before starting the engine, the op-
erator and passenger(s) should al-
ways:
– Be properly seated on the water-
craft
– Have a firm grip on a handhold
or hold on to the waist of the per-
son in front of them
– Wear appropriate protective
clothing including a PFD ap-
proved by local authorities.
NOTICE
In shallow water, keep en-
gine speed to a minimum and avoid
hard accelerations.
Even though
this watercraft is equipped with an
anti-debris water intake grate, it is
still possible that debris such as
rocks, sand or other objects may
damage the propulsion system. The
hull protection coating may not pre-
vent damages to the hull caused by
collisions with obstacles.
