OPERATION
Launching the Watercraft
1. Launch the watercraft in an area
free of weeds and debris. Make
sure the craft is in at least two feet
of water before starting the engine.
2. Push the rear of the watercraft up
and down several times to flush
out any sand that could be trapped
in the pump.
3. Turn the fuel valve on, if
applicable.
4. Carefully board the watercraft and sit down.
5. Start the engine as outlined on page 62.
Stopping the Engine
Do not turn off the engine until the watercraft has quit moving. Your
craft requires engine power for steering. After the engine has stopped,
you’ll lose all steering control of the watercraft.
1. Release the throttle lever. When the
engine has slowed to an idle, push in the
stop button (1) with your left thumb. The
engine should stop immediately. You may
also stop the engine by pulling the
lanyard lock plate (2) off the engine stop
switch.
2. Be sure the water is at least two feet (60
cm) deep when stopping. This will prevent debris from being
sucked into the impeller or cooling system.
3. Remove the lanyard lock plate. Never leave the lanyard attached to
an unattended watercraft.
