Safety information

Limitations on who may

 

operate the watercraft

The safe use and operation of this watercraft is dependent upon the use of proper riding techniques, as well as upon the common sense, good judgment, and expertise of the operator. Before using this watercraft, make sure that its use is permitted under local laws, bylaws and regulations and always operate the watercraft in full conformity with any requirements and limitations imposed. Every operator should know the following requirements before riding the watercraft.

Before operating the watercraft, read this Owner’s/Operator’s Manual, the Riding Practice Guide, and all warning and caution labels on the watercraft. These materials should give you an understanding of the watercraft and its operation.

Never allow anyone to operate this watercraft until they too have read this Owner’s/ Operator’s Manual, the Riding Practice Guide and all warning and caution labels.

Yamaha recommends a minimum operator age of 16 years old.

Adults must supervise use by minors. Know your local operator age and training requirements.

This watercraft is designed to carry the operator and one passenger. Never exceed the maximum load limit or allow more than 2 persons to ride the watercraft at one time.

Maximum load: 160 kg (353 lb) Load is the total weight of cargo, operator and passenger.

Do not operate the watercraft with a passenger on board until you have considerable practice and experience riding alone. Operating the watercraft with a passenger requires more skill. Take the time to become accustomed to the handling characteristics of the watercraft before trying any difficult maneuvers.

EJU10010

Cruising limitations

Scan constantly for people, objects, and other watercraft. Be alert for conditions that limit your visibility or block your vision of others.

Operate defensively at safe speeds and keep a safe distance away from people, objects, and other watercraft.

Do not follow directly behind watercraft or other boats.

Do not go near others to spray or splash them with water.

Avoid sharp turns or other maneuvers that make it hard for others to avoid you or understand where you are going.

Avoid areas with submerged objects or shallow water.

Ride within your limits and avoid aggressive maneuvers to reduce the risk of loss of control, ejection, and collision.

This is a high performance boat—not a toy. Sharp turns or jumping wakes or waves can increase the risk of back/spinal injury (paralysis), facial injuries, and broken legs, ankles and other bones. Do not jump wakes or waves.

Do not operate the watercraft in rough water, bad weather or when visibility is poor; this may lead to an accident causing injury or death. Be alert to the possibility of adverse weather. Take note of weather forecasts and the prevailing weather conditions before setting out on your watercraft.

As with any water sport, you should not ride your watercraft without someone else near by. If you ride further than swimming distance from shore, you should ride by another boat or watercraft, but make sure you stay a safe distance away. It’s good common sense!

Never operate in water that is less than 60 cm (2 ft) deep, otherwise you increase your chance of hitting a submerged object, which could result in injury.

1-10

E

This watercraft is not equipped with lighting required for night operation. Do not operate the watercraft after sunset or before dawn, otherwise you increase the risk of colliding with another boat, which could result in severe injury or death.

EJU10020

Operation requirements

All riders must wear an authorityapproved PFD that is suitable for personal watercraft use.

Wear protective clothing. Severe internal injuries can occur if water is forced into body cavities as a result of falling into water or being near the jet thrust nozzle.

Normal swimwear does not adequately protect against forceful water entry into rectum or vagina. All riders must wear a wetsuit bottom or clothing that provides equivalent protection. Such clothing includes thick, tightly woven, sturdy and snug-fitting apparel such as denim, but does not include spandex or similar fabrics, like those used in bicycle shorts.

1Authority-approved PFD

2Wetsuit bottom

Eye protection is recommended to keep wind, water, and glare from the sun out of your eyes while you operate your watercraft. Restraining straps for eyewear are made which are designed to float should your eyewear fall in the water.

Footwear and gloves are recommended.

1-11

E

You must decide whether to wear a helmet while you ride for recreation. You should know that a helmet could help protect you in certain kinds of accidents and that it could injure you in others.

A helmet is designed to provide some head protection. Although helmets cannot protect against all foreseeable impacts, a helmet might reduce your injuries in a collision with a boat or other obstacle.

A helmet may have potential safety hazards, as well. Falling into the water could risk the chance of the helmet catching water, commonly known as “bucketing,” and 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 congestion, 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. If you will be engaging in closed-course competition, follow the helmet requirements of the sanctioning organization.

NEVER operate the watercraft after consuming alcohol or taking other drugs.

For reasons of safety and proper care of the watercraft, always perform the preoperation checks listed on page 3-6 before operating the watercraft.

The operator and passenger should always keep both feet in the footwell when the watercraft is in motion. Lifting your feet increases your chances of losing your balance, and your feet being hit by objects outside the watercraft. Do not give a ride to a child whose feet cannot reach the floor of the footwell.

Passenger should firmly hold on to the operator.

Always consult your doctor on whether it is safe for you to ride this watercraft if you are pregnant or in poor health.

1-12

E

Do not attempt to modify this watercraft! Modifications to your watercraft may reduce safety and reliability, and render the watercraft unsafe or illegal for use.

Attach the engine shut-off cord (lanyard) to wrist and keep it free from the handlebars so that the engine stops if the operator falls off. After riding, remove the engine shut-off cord from the watercraft to avoid accidental starting or unauthorized use by children or others.

Scan carefully for swimmers and stay away from swimming areas. Swimmers are hard to see and you could accidentally hit someone in the water.

Avoid being hit by another boat! You should always take the responsibility to watch for traffic; other boaters may not be watching for you. If they do not see you, or you maneuver more quickly than other boaters expect, you risk a collision.

Maintain a safe distance from other boats or watercraft, and also watch for boats’ ski ropes or fishing lines. Obey the “Safe boating rules” and be sure to check behind you before making a turn. (See Safe boating rules on page 1-16.)

EJU13820

Recommended equipment

The following items should be carried on board your watercraft:

Sound-signaling device

You should carry a whistle or other soundsignaling device that can be used to signal other boats.

Visual distress signals

It is recommended that an authorityapproved pyrotechnic device be stored in a waterproof container on your watercraft. A mirror can also be used as an emergency signal. Contact your Yamaha dealer for more information.

Watch

A watch is helpful so you will know how long you have been operating.

Towline

A towline can be used to tow a disabled watercraft in an emergency.

1-13

E

EJU20020

Hazard information

Never start the engine or let it run for any length of time in an enclosed area. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that may cause loss of consciousness and death within a short time. Always operate the watercraft in an open area.

Do not start engine on land until everyone is away from stern. Hot water and steam spurting from exhaust outlet can cause serious burns.

Hot muffler surfaces can cause serious burns. Do not touch any muffler surface during or after engine operation. Catalytic converter gets hotter after engine stops.

EJU20030

Watercraft characteristics

Jet thrust turns the watercraft. Releasing the throttle lever completely produces only minimum thrust. If you are traveling at speeds above trolling, you will have rapidly decreasing ability to steer without throttle. This model has the Yamaha Engine Management System (YEMS) that includes an Off-Throttle Steering (OTS) system. It will activate at planing speeds should you attempt to steer the watercraft after releasing the throttle lever. The OTS system assists in turning by continuing to supply some thrust while the watercraft is decelerating, but you can turn more sharply if you apply throttle while turning the handlebars. The OTS system does not function below planing speeds or when the engine is off. Once the engine slows down, the watercraft will no longer turn in response to handlebar input until you apply throttle again or you reach trolling speed. Practice turning in an open area without obstructions until you have a good feel for this maneuver.

This watercraft is water-jet propelled. The jet pump is directly connected to the engine. This means that jet thrust will produce some movement whenever the engine is running. There is no “neutral” position.

1-14

E

Keep away from the intake grate 1 while the engine is on. Items such as long hair, loose clothing, or PFD straps can become entangled in moving parts resulting in severe injury or drowning.

Never insert any object into the jet thrust nozzle 2 while the engine is running. Severe injury or death could result from coming in contact with the rotating parts of the jet pump.

Stop the engine and remove the clip 3 from the engine shut-off switch 4 before removing any debris or weeds, which may have collected around the jet intake.

EJU10050

Safe boating rules

Your Yamaha watercraft is legally considered a powerboat. Operation of the watercraft must be in accordance with the rules and regulations governing the waterway on which it is used.

EJU10060

Enjoy your watercraft responsibly

You share the areas you enjoy when riding your watercraft with others and with nature. So your enjoyment includes a responsibility to treat these other people, and the lands, waters, and wildlife with respect and courtesy.

Whenever and wherever you ride, think of yourself as the guest of those around you. Remember, for example, that the sound of your watercraft may be music to you, but it could be just noise to others. And the exciting splash of your wake can make waves others won’t enjoy. Avoid riding close to shoreline homes and waterfowl nesting areas or other wildlife areas, and keep a respectful distance from fishermen, other boats, swimmers, and populated beaches. When travel in areas like these is unavoidable, ride slowly and obey all laws.

Remember that pollution can be harmful to the environment. Do not refuel or add oil where a spill could cause damage to nature. Remove your watercraft from the water and move it away from the shoreline before refueling. And keep your surroundings pleasant for the people and wildlife that share the waterways: don’t litter!

When you ride responsibly, with respect and courtesy for others, you help ensure that our waterways stay open for the enjoyment of a variety of recreational opportunities.
