Mooring the Boat
Be sure to tilt the jet drive out of the water when the boat is
pulled onto a beach or tied to a dock in shallow water. Failure to
do this may cause the water intake housing to fill with sand or
debris and could prevent the outboard from cranking over for
starting.
Water Intake Blockage
A rotating impeller could cause injury if contact is made with
hands, clothing, or tools. To avoid injury, keep hands and
clothing away from the inlet or outlet of the jetdrive, regardless
of whether the boat is in the water. Secure tools and loose
items to avoid being struck by projectiles as a result of contact
with the rotating impeller, and to prevent damage to the
impeller.
A large amount of debris being drawn into the water intake may
result in a loss of power. Intake suction holding debris against
the grate will result in restricted water flow. Shutting the engine
off may allow the debris to fall off the intake grate allowing full
power to be restored. If debris does not fall off the intake grate,
the engine must be shut off and debris physically removed from
the grate.
Engine Break‑In Procedure
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow the engine break‑in procedures
can result in poor performance throughout the life of the engine
and can cause engine damage. Always follow break‑in
procedures.
GASOLINE/OIL BREAK-IN MIXTURE
NOTE: Do not use premixed gas and oil during break‑in. Use
straight gasoline during engine break‑in and after engine
break‑in.
