Is Your PWC Ready To Ride?
Before each ride it’s important to inspect your
PWC and make sure any problem you find is
corrected. A pre-ride inspection is a must, not
only for safety, but because having a problem
on the water can be a major inconvenience.
Before inspection, make sure the lock clip is
not inserted in the engine stop button/switch.
Check the following items before putting
your PWC in the water.
Check the following items before starting the
engine:
Remove both seats and the
front storage box to vent
gasoline fumes. (Reinstall
both seats and the front
storage box before launching.)
Improperly maintaining this personal
watercraft or failing to correct a problem
before riding can cause a crash in which
you can be seriously hurt or killed.
Always perform a pre-ride inspection
before every ride and correct any
problems.
