2) Steering Wheel
The steering wheel controls the direc-
tion of the craft. Turning the steering
wheel clockwise steers the craft to the
right and inversely.
Low-Speed Steering Control
System
Whenever the throttle lever is in idle po-
sition and the steering wheel is approach-
ing the end of its rotation, the engine
speed will be slightly accelerated to in-
crease the jet pump thrust and thus im-
proving the steering control for low
speed operation and when approaching/
leaving a dock. Refer to OPERATING IN-
STRUCTIONS for more details.
3) Throttle/Shifter Lever
Throttle
When pushed forward craft acceler-
ates. When fully pulled back, engine
return to idle speed and the craft is
gradually stopped by water drag.
NOTE:
To activate throttle lever, shift
lever must be in forward or reverse po-
sition.
WARNING

come loose or fails to remain on its
switch, replace it immediately.
