way. The reverse gate will be in the
middle position, directing half of the
thrust toward the front of the craft to
minimize craft movement.

pletely. The reverse gate will be in

NOTE:
To obtain maximum efficiency
and control from the reverse, increase
engine speed to slightly above idle.
Too much RPM will create water tur-
bulence and reduce reverse efficiency.
In reverse position, turn the handlebar
in the opposite direction that you want
to move the rear of the craft.

Keep away from intake grate while
engine is on. Items such as long
hair, loose clothing or personal flo-
tation device straps can become

ing in severe injury or drowning.
