OPERATION
Pre-Operation Check
Battery
n
Never remove or tighten battery
cables or attempt to change a
battery if you smell fuel fumes.
Instead, take the craft to your
dealer for immediate
inspection.
It is very important that the
battery is in good condition and
fully charged. A weak battery
can leave you stranded. Never
operate the watercraft with a
battery that is too weak to start
the engine on its own or shows
signs of loss of power.
Be sure the battery is securely
fastened in its mounting
position.
Check the battery fluid level and add distilled water if level is low. It
should be between the "upper" and "lower" level.
See that terminal connections are tight and that there are no leaks.
Inspect vent hose for kinks or blockage.
Never allow a spark to occur while charging or removing the battery, or
when tightening the cables. This could cause an explosion, resulting in
severe personal injury or death.
