Steering system
Your watercraft can be steered by turning the
handlebars in the direction you wish to travel.
When the handlebars are turned, the angle of
the jet thrust nozzle is changed, and the direc-
tion of the watercraft is changed accordingly.
Since the strength of the jet thrust determines
the speed and degree of a turn, throttle must
always be applied when attempting a turn, ex-
cept at trolling speed.
The angle of the jet thrust nozzle can be ad-
justed to suit operator preference. (See page
57 for adjustment procedures.)

Steering pole
The steering pole varies in height with the op-
erator’s posture, enabling the operator to as-
sume various riding positions.
When removing the hood for pre-operation
checks, maintenance, etc., lift the steering
pole and use the lock pin to support it. Move
the lock pin into the detent. Make sure that the
lock pin is returned to the stowed position af-
ter installing the hood.
