Protecting People in the Water
WHILE YOU ARE CRUISING
It is very difficult for a person standing or floating in the water to take quick
action to avoid a boat heading in his/her direction, even at slow speed.
21604
Always slow down and exercise extreme caution when boating in an area
where there might be people in the water.
Avoid shallow water or where any loose material such as sand, shells,
seaweed, grass, tree branches, etc., can be pulled in and expelled from the
pump as a high speed projectile.
WHILE BOAT IS STATIONARY
!
WARNING
Avoid injury resulting from contacting the rotating impeller or having hair,
clothing, or loose objects drawn into the water intake and wrapping around
the impeller shaft. Stay away from the water intake and never insert an object
into the water intake or water outlet nozzle when the engine is running.
Stop the engine immediately whenever a person is in the water near the boat.
The jet drive is always drawing water through the water intake when the engine
is running. Stay away from the water intake located under the jet drive and
never insert an object into the water intake or outlet nozzle when the engine is
running.
