Steering system
Check for looseness in the handlebars.
Turn them as far as possible to the right
and left to make sure that operation is
smooth and unrestricted throughout the
whole range. Make sure that the jet thrust
nozzle also changes directions as the han-
dlebars are turned, and that there is no free
play between the handlebars and the jet
thrust nozzle.

5. If the “LOCK” mode was chosen previ-
ously, choose the “START” mode before
starting the engine. (See page 2-20 for
selecting “PA D L O C” mode.)
NOTE:@
If the initial setting of the PADLOC has not
been done, the “START” mode is auto-
matically selected.

“START” mode.
@
6. While lightly squeezing the throttle lever,
push the start switch (green button).
WARNING@ On this watercraft, the engine is con-
nected directly to the jet pump. Starting
the engine immediately generates some
thrust. Apply only enough throttle to
keep the engine running.

engine starts to run.
CAUTION:@
Never push the start switch while the
engine is running.

Do not operate the start switch for
more than 5 seconds, otherwise the
battery will be discharged and the
engine will not start. Also, the starter
motor may be damaged. If the engine
does not start in 5 seconds, release
the start switch, wait 15 seconds, and
try again.
@
8. After the engine has warmed up, push
the choke knob in to its original position.
