CAUTION
:
If the vehicle has been capsized for five
minutes or more, air may have entered
the oil injection system. Leave the engine
off, or operate only at trolling speeds, for
10 minutes after the vehicle has been put
right-side up. This will allow any air to
bleed off.
EJU00499
TURNING
Throttle produces thrust from the jet pump.
Directional control is provided by opening
the throttle and turning the handlebars.
To make a turn at higher than trolling speed:
Reduce your speed, then turn the handle-
bars and shift your weight in the desired
direction, and apply enough throttle to make
your turn. High thrust turns the vehicle
sharply; low thrust turns less sharply.
Releasing the throttle completely causes the
vehicle to go straight. TURNS CANNOT BE
MADE WITHOUT APPLYING THROTTLE!
WARNING
You need engine power to turn. Do not
release the throttle completely. Releas-
ing the throttle lever can cause you to
hit an obstacle you are attempting to
avoid. A collision could result in
severe injury or death.
Make gradual turns at higher speeds
or slow down before turning. Sharp
turns at higher speeds may cause the
vehicle to slide sideways or spin. The
passenger(s) and operator could be
thrown off suddenly and be injured.
