AFETY
● Keep hands, feet, hair, and all other
parts of your body and clothing
away from jet intakes on the bottom
of the hull while engine is running
because they could be caught in the
intake. Stop the engine and remove
the lanyard before removing any
debris or weeds which may have
collected around the jet intake.
Refer to the Jet Pump Clean-Out
procedures on page 5-4 for further
information.
● Do not board from the rear, use
swim platform, or swim behind boat
when engines are running. Strong
streams of water from the jet noz-
zles can be dangerous and can
result in serious injury when direct-
ed at body orifices (rectum and
vagina).
● Never insert any object in the jet
pump outlet.

CRUISING LIMITATIONS

● Do not try to jump other boat's
wakes or follow another boat or
watercraft too closely or you will
increase your chance of colliding
with other boats. Do not go over a
water-ski jump, or attempt any other
kind of jumping maneuver with the
boat, since you risk injuring yourself
or damaging your Jet Boat.
● Watch for dangerous underwater
obstacles when boating in shallow
water. Never operate in water that is
less than 3 ft (90 cm) deep.
● Do not operate the boat in rough
water, bad weather or when visibili-
ty is poor; this may lead to an acci-
dent causing injury or death.
Operation in rough water can crack
the hull or damage internal parts.
