OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 75 We strongly recommend that all parts and accessories you add to your watercraft be genuine Kawasaki components. Because a personal watercraft is sensitive to changes in weight distribution, you must take extreme care in carrying cargo, passengers and/or in the fitting of additional accessories. The following general guidelines have been prepared to assist you in making your determinations. Passengers can affect control of the watercraft by improper positioning or sudden movements. It is important that passengers sit still while the watercraft is in motion and not interfere with the operation of the watercraft. Do not carry animals on your watercraft. You should instruct any passenger before riding to hold on to the person in front of them, hand strap, or handrail; and keep both feet on the deck for balance. Use the open storage area aft of the seat for carrying cargo. Be sure that any loose items are packed in a buoyant container to prevent them from falling overboard and becoming lost. Loose articles or rope could fall overboard and become lodged in the intake grate or pump. Use the cargo net (not standard equipment with this watercraft) or other suitable tie-down straps to secure cargo on the open storage area. The hook under the rear end of the seat and the towing eyes at the stern are also available. Do not overload the storage area, maximum cargo weight must not exceed 23 kg (50 lb). Make sure that the cargo will not move around while you are riding. Recheck cargo security as often as possible and adjust as necessary. Do not carry large or bulky items affecting visibility or operator ability to control the watercraft. Do not install accessories or carry cargo that impairs the performance of the watercraft. • • j • WARNING Cargo in the open storage area could interfere with reboarding by causing a loss of balance and possible injury. Do not stack cargo in such a way that it interferes with reboarding. • • •
