OPERATION
Beaching
Never run the watercraft up onto
a beach with the engine running.
Sand, pebbles, weeds and debris
can enter the jet pump and cause
severe damage to it and the impel-
ler. Ingestion of sand into the cool-
ing system will cause the engine to
overheat, resulting in possible se-
vere engine damage.
1.
Slowly approach the beach
and stop the engine in no less
than
2
feet
(60
cm) of water.
Make sure there are no
swimmers, boats or other
obstacles close to the
watercraft. Remember, turning
the watercraft is impossible if
the engine is stopped.
2.
Get off the watercraft and guide
it to the beach.
3.
Before restarting, inspect the
impellerljet pump area for sand
and debris. Move the
watercraft to at least
2
feet
(60
cm) of water and push the rear
of the watercraft up and down in
the water to help flush sand and
debris out of the pump.
