▪ Keep away from the tow rope and Shuttle tow harness to avoid injury. Passengers can be hit
or become entangled in the ropes.
▪
Ensure tow rope is clear of all body parts prior to starting out or during use.
▪ Inspect tow rope and its attachments before using. Do not use tow rope if frayed, knotted or
damaged. Replace when signs of excessive deterioration are indicated by discoloration,
broken filaments, unraveling or other obvious signs of wear on the rope or hardware.
▪
Keep persons and tow rope away from propeller/impeller when engine is running, even in
neutral. Should rope become entangled in propeller/impeller, SHUT OFF ENGINE AND
REMOVE IGNITION KEY BEFORE RETRIEVING ROPE.
When you ride:
▪ Attempting land or dock starts can increase the risk of injury or death. USE THIS PRODUCT
ONLY ON WATER. When starting from the beach, make sure Shuttle is freely floating when
fully loaded with passengers. DO NOT attempt to pull Shuttle with passengers if any part of
the Shuttle is sitting on land.
▪
Always remove any slack in the rope between watercraft and Shuttle before starting. Sudden
shock loads may cause injury to the riders or failure of rope, resulting in snap-back or
breakage.
▪
Use extreme caution when towing passengers in shallow water, near shore, pilings, docks,
rafts, swimmers, other boats or other obstacles. Maintain safe distance & pay attention to
waves/surf that could force the shuttle into contacting these obstacles.
▪ Make sure passengers on board Shuttle are seated at all times while under tow. Stop towing
immediately if passengers are seen standing or conducting themselves in an unsafe manner.
▪
Riders should hold on securely to the handle immediately forward of their respective seating
position while Shuttle is under tow.
▪ Falling and the injuries that may result are inherent risks in the sport.
▪ Use a flag to signal to others if a rider falls off the Shuttle and is in the water.
▪ Watercraft driver must use extra caution when approaching a fallen rider. Keep eye contact
on fallen rider at all times.
▪ Put the watercraft in neutral when near a fallen rider. Turn the engine off when people are
getting in or out of the craft, or while in the water near the craft.
▪ Do not operate watercraft or ride under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
