Operation
(3) Grip the handlebars with both hands.
Place one knee on the riding tray and
balance there.
(4) Look in all directions, start the engine,
and then begin to accelerate.
(5) Pull your other knee up onto the riding
tray as the watercraft speed increases.
(6) Move as far forward as possible without
interfering with the movement of the han-
dlebars. Keep your body perpendicular
to the water, with your weight forward
and low.
TIP:
The watercraft will become easier to balance
as the speed increases, because jet thrust
provides stability as well as directional con-
trol.

the engine shut-off cord (lanyard) to your
left wrist, and then attach the clip to the
engine shut-off switch.

Pull your body up onto the riding tray and
balance there, using your elbows on the
