A separate throttle lever controls each

engine. In normal operation the throttle

levers are moved together. Moving the

throttle levers forward increases engine

speed. Move both throttles to the idle

position before using the shift lever.

SHIFT LEVER

SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH MAY

RESULT IF YOU IGNORE ANY OF

THE FOLLOWING.

● Check throttle, steering and shift

lever for proper operation before

starting the engine.

● Shift into neutral before starting

engines.

● Put throttle levers in idle position

before shifting.

● Make sure there are no people or

objects behind the boat before

starting or shifting into Reverse.

● When operating in Reverse, go

slowly. Do not open the throttle

more than half. Otherwise, the

boat may become unstable,

which could result in loss of con-

trol and an accident.

● Do not shift into Reverse while

traveling at planing speeds. Loss

of control, boat swamping, or

damage to the boat could occur.

Do not use control levers as grab

handles because damage can occur.

NOTE: This Jet Boat is equipped with a

mechanical interlock that prevents shift

lever movement unless both throttle

levers are put in the idle position first. It

also has a start-in-gear protection neu-

tral switch that prevents the engines

from cranking if the shift lever is not in

Neutral.

1 Reverse

2 Neutral

3 Forward

The shift lever controls the direction of

travel.

The drive line on the Jet Boat is direct

drive, so jet thrust is always being pro-

duced while the engines are running.

The direction of the boat is controlled

by jet pump gates which direct the flow

of the jet thrust as follows:

Forward

The jet pump gates are lifted all the way

up. All jet thrust is to the rear, which

moves the boat forward.
