Operator Safety
Any operator of a Polaris watercraft must know and practice the
following guidelines for personal safety and the safety of passengers.
Never permit a guest to operate this watercraft unless the guest has read
and understands all warning decals and the owner’s manual.
Operator Guidelines
This watercraft is not a toy. It’s a high performance powerboat, and
operating it requires learned and practiced skills. All operators and
passengers should become familiar with proper operating techniques
before attempting maneuvers. Always operate the watercraft at a speed
appropriate for water conditions and for your level of experience.
The minimum operator age for this watercraft is 16 years of age, but
operators between 16 and 18 years of age require close adult
supervision. Obey all applicable boating rules and regulations.
This watercraft does not have brakes.
The watercraft is stopped by
releasing the throttle. The vehicle will glide to a stop due to the natural
drag of the water.
Allow a minimum of 300 feet (90 m) to coast to a
stop from full throttle.
Jet thrust is required to steer and turn the vehicle.
Never completely
release the throttle and attempt to turn at more than a trolling speed.
The watercraft will not turn. Practice until you’re comfortable with
turning and stopping, and be sure you’ve mastered the skills before
carrying a passenger.
Learn and observe all local, state, and federal boating regulations and
speed limits. Boating laws and navigational rules are designed for the
safety of everyone sharing the waterways.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions contained throughout
this manual and on your vehicle can result in severe injury or death.
Read and understand your owner’s manual and all warning decals
before operating a Polaris watercraft.
