8 For reasons of safety and proper care,
always perform the pre-operation
checks on page 3-3 before riding.

8 The operator and a passenger should
always keep both feet on the footrest
floor when the vehicle is in motion. If
you lift your feet, you increase your
chances of losing your balance, and
your feet could hit objects outside the
water vehicle. Do not give a ride to a
child whose feet cannot reach the
footrest floor.
The passenger should always firmly
grasp the operator’s waist.

is safe for you to ride this water vehicle.

8 Do not attempt to modify this water
vehicle!
Modifications to your machine may
reduce safety and reliability, and may
make the vehicle unsafe or illegal for use.

8 The operator should always attach the
engine stop switch lanyard (cable) to
his left wrist so that the engine will stop
if the operator falls off.
Be sure the lanyard is not wrapped
around the handlebar or tangled in the
controls which would prevent the lan-
yard from pulling away.

A helmet may have potential safety haz-
ard, as well. A helmet could catch the
water during a fall into the water. This
is commonly called “bucketing”. The
resulting strain on your neck could
cause choking, severe and permanent
neck injuries, or death. A helmet could
also increase the risk of an accident if it
reduces your vision or hearing, or if it
distracts you or increases your fatigue.
How should you decide if a helmet’s
potential safety benefits outweigh its
potential risks for you? Consider your
particular riding conditions. Consider
factors such as your riding environment
and your riding style and ability. Also
consider the likelihood of traffic conges-
tion, and the water surface conditions. If
you decide to wear a helmet based
upon your riding circumstances, choose
one carefully. Look for a helmet
designed for personal watercraft use, if
possible. Consider a helmet meeting
Snell or DOT standards. If you will be
engaging in closed-course competition,
follow the helmet requirements of the
sanctioning organization.
