Operation During Break-In
Period
NOTICE
Scrupulously follow the
instructions of this section. Failure
to do so may reduce the engines life
and/or performance.
A break-in period of 10 operating hours
is required before running the water-
craft at sustained full throttle.
During this period, maximum throttle
should not exceed 1/2 to 3/4 opening.
However, brief full acceleration and
speed variations contribute to a good
break-in.
NOTICE
Continued wide open
throttle accelerations,
cruising speeds and engine over-
heating are detrimental during the
break-in period.

Boarding the Watercraft

As with any watercraft, boarding
should be done carefully and engine
must not be running.
WARNING
Engine must be OFF when board-
ing the watercraft or when using
the boarding step.
PRE-RIDE IN-

_______________
Boarding from a Dock
When boarding from a dock, slowly
place one foot on the watercraft foot-
board nearest the dock while holding
the handlebar, and at the same time,
transfer the body weight to the other
side in order to balance the watercraft.
Then bring the other foot over the seat
and place it on the other footboard.
Push the watercraft away from the
dock.
Boarding from Shallow Water
In shallow water, board the watercraft
from either the side or the rear.
WARNING
– Keep limbs away from jet or in-
take grate.
– Never use propulsion system as
a supporting point to board the
watercraft.
Ensure there is at least 90 cm (3 ft) of
water underneath the lowest rear por-
tion of the hull.
Take into account that the hull will be
lower in the water when all passen-
gers are aboard. Be certain to maintain
the specified depth so sand, pebbles
and rocks will not be drawn up in the
jet pump.
