SAFETY
Operator Safety
Jet Pump Water Intake Safety
Contact with the jet pump or driveline components of
the watercraft can result in serious injury, death or
drowning. Do not allow hands, feet, ropes, straps,
clothing or long hair to come in contact with the jet
pump water intake (1) on the bottom of the watercraft
while the engine is running. Never insert any object
into the intake or outlet (2) of the jet pump, and never
start or operate the watercraft with any guard or shield
removed (such as the ride plate (3) or inlet grate).
To prevent serious injury due to accidental starter
engagement, be sure the engine is off and the safety
lanyard is disconnected before removing weeds or debris
that may have collected in or around the jet pump intake.
Weather and Darkness
Be aware of severe weather conditions. Observe
weather forecasts and conditions before venturing out,
and do not operate the watercraft when visibility is
poor and when the water is rough. Operation of the
watercraft in poor weather conditions can result in an
accident and lead to serious injury, hypothermia or
death.
Never operate the watercraft after sunset, before
sunrise or in any condition of darkness. The vehicle is
not equipped with lights, which makes it unsafe and
illegal to operate in darkness. Consult local
regulations concerning allowed hours of operation.
Always ride with another watercraft when operating in
remote areas or in large areas of open water. Carry a
flare gun on board to signal for help if necessary.
