Control function operation
27
To adjust the handlebar position:
(1) Pull the tilt lever up to disengage the han-dlebar lock, and then move the handle-
bars back or forth to the desired position.
WARNING! Never pull the tilt lever dur- ing operation, otherwise the handle-
bars may suddenly change position,
which may lead to an accident.
[EWJ00042]
(2) Make sure that the tilt lever returns to its original position and that the handlebars
are securely locked in place.
EJU35975Cooling water pilot outlet
When the engine is running, some of the
cooling water that is circulated in the engine
is discharged from the cooling water pilot
outlet.
There is a cooling water pilot outlet on the
port (left) side of the watercraft. To check for
proper operation of the cooling system, make
sure that water is being discharged from the
cooling water pilot outlet. If water is not being
discharged from the outlet, stop the engine
and check the jet intake for clogging. (See
page 120 for information on the jet intake.)
TIP
It will take about 60 seconds for the water
to reach the outlet after the engine is start-
ed.
Water discharge may not be constant
when the engine is running at idling speed.
