CAUTION Take proper care of your new JET SKI watercraft. Here are some of the cautions contained in this manual which must be followed for the protection of your watercraft. Be sure to read this Owner's Manual and understand it thoroughly before operating your watercraft. Always turn the boat on PORT side. Rolling to the STARBOARD side can cause water in the exhaust system to run into the engine, with possible engine damage. If the watercraft has capsized, follow the righting procedure on page 95 immediately. If water is left in the engine more than a few hours, it will destroy the crankshaft bearings and damage other internal engine parts. The watercraft must be in water at least 0.8 m (2.5 ft) deep when starting to prevent jet pump damage by objects sucked up from the bottom. Do not operate in shallow or debris-laden water, or the impeller may be damaged and sand may clog the water cooling hoses. Do not run the watercraft onto the shore, or severe impeller damage may occur.
