OPERATION
Fuel and Oil Recommendations
Fuel
Refer to t he specifications on pages 8-14 for the proper fuel octane
requirement for your boat.
Since this watercraft features an oil injection system it is not necessary
to pre-mix the gasoline and oil. The only deviation from this is during
the engine break-in period (see page 65).
Refueling
Keep the watercraft horizontal while fueling. If your machine is
equipped with a fuel valve, shut it off. C arefully remove the gas cap.
Use fresh, seasonal gasoline which has been stored in a clean container.
To get the best perform ance from gasoline only purchase what is
needed for a month or less of operation.
The use of a funnel or flexible spout will help avoid gasoline spillage
on the watercraft. Always wipe spills off immediately.
The use of non-recommended fuel or oil could result in engine
component and fuel system deterioration and will void your
warranty.
CAUTION
Always stop the engine and disconnect the lanyard lock plate from
the engine stop switch before refueling.
If you do not, you run the risk of igniting the gasoline, causing an
explosion that would cause seri ous injury or death.
