WARNING
Do not use the reverse function to slow
G
down or stop the watercraft as it could
cause you to lose control, be ejected, or
impact the handlebars.
Make sure that there are no obstacles or
G
people behind you before shifting into
reverse.
Do not touch the reverse gate while the
G
shift lever is being operated, otherwise
you could be pinched.
When the shift lever is moved to the reverse
position, the reverse gate lowers and deflects
the water jet being discharged from the jet
thrust nozzle. This allows the watercraft to
move in reverse.
To shift into reverse:
(1) Release the throttle lever and let the en-
gine speed return to idle.
(2) Pull the shift lever rearward until it stops
in the reverse position. The reverse gate
30
will lower and the watercraft will start
moving in reverse at trolling speed.
