Reverse system
WARNING
EWJ01230
●
Do not use the reverse function to slow
down or stop the watercraft as it could
cause you to lose control, be ejected, or
impact the handlebars.
●
Make sure that there are no obstacles or
people behind you before shifting into
reverse.
●
Do not touch the reverse gate while the
shift lever is being operated, otherwise
you could be pinched.
When the shift lever is moved to the reverse
position, the reverse gate lowers and deflects
the water jet being discharged from the jet
thrust nozzle. This allows the watercraft to
move in reverse.
To shift into reverse:
(1) Release the throttle lever and let the en-
gine speed return to idle.
(2) Pull the shift lever rearward until it stops
in the reverse position. The reverse gate
will lower and the watercraft will start
moving in reverse at trolling speed.
TIP:
This model is equipped with a function which
limits the engine speed in reverse.
To shift into forward:
(1) Release the throttle lever and let the en-
gine speed return to idle.
(2) Push the shift lever forward until it stops
in the forward position. The reverse gate
will rise and the watercraft will start mov-
ing forward at trolling speed.
