3: Gasoline is explosive. If you see or smell the presence of
gasoline during your inspection, DO NOT START YOUR
ENGINE! Remove your ignition key from the ignition switch
and call your MasterCraft dealer for service. (Page 15-15)
4: Gasoline is extremely fl ammable and highly explosive un-
der certain conditions. Always stop the engine and never
smoke or allow open fl ames or sparks within 50 feet of
the fueling area when refueling. (Page 6-2)
5: Take care not to spill gasoline. If gasoline is spilled ac-
cidentally, wipe up all traces of it, with dry rags immedi-
ately and dispose of properly on shore. (Page 6-2)
6: Failure to operate the blower as instructed could cause
improper ventilation of the boat engine and bilge areas.
Fuel vapors can accumulate in this area and cause a fi re
or explosion which may result in serious injury or death!
(Page 5-4)
7: To prevent a possible explosion, operate the blower for at least four (4) minutes before starting the engine and
always when at idle or slow-running speed. Explosive gasoline and/or battery fumes may be present in the engine
compartment. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death! (Page 9-1)
8: Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless, odorless and poisonous gas that accumulates rapidly and can cause
serious injury or death. Exposure to carbon monoxide can be fatal in a matter of minutes. Exposure to even low
concentrations of carbon monoxide must not be ignored because the effects of exposure to carbon monoxide are
cumulative and can be just as lethal as at high concentrations. Carbon monoxide from exhaust pipes of inboard or
outboard engines may build up inside and outside the boat in areas near exhaust vents. STAY AWAY from these
exhaust vent areas, which are located at the stern of the boat, and DO NOT swim or engage in any watersports
or other activities in or near the stern area of the boat, including, without limitation, the swim platform and the rear
sun deck, when the engine is in operation. Under no circumstances should “teak surfi ng” or similar activities be
performed during the operation of your MasterCraft boat—such activities are a misuse of this product. (Page 2-1)
9: The safety switch lanyard must be attached to the operator whenever the engine is started. Failure to do so may
result in serious injury or death. (Page 5-4)
10: Never override or modify the engine safety shut-off switch or engine neutral starting safety switch in any way. (Page 1-3)
11: Before starting the engine, open the engine compartment and check for gasoline fumes, fuel and oil leaks or the
presence of fuel or oil in the bilge. (Page 9-1)
12: Do not tow more than two persons at one time on a tow tower. The tow tower should be used only for water skis,
wakeboards, or recreational towables and not for parasailing, kite fl ying or towing other boats. Do not add any
attachments that are not installed by MasterCraft. Do not climb on, sit on, stand on, jump off or dive off the tower.
Never allow passengers to sit behind the tow rope attachment point. Never allow loose tow rope ends to dangle.
Always be certain that all bolts are in place and tight before and during use. When the tower is up, watch for low
obstacles such as tree limbs, bridges or power lines. (Page 1-4)
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
1: DO NOT launch or operate the boat if any problem is found during the Safety Check. A problem could lead to
an accident during the outing, resulting in serious injury or death. Any and all problems should receive attention
immediately. See your MasterCraft dealer for assistance. (Page 7-1)
