smo2000-002a.book Page 7 Tuesday, September 28, 1999 12:00 PM  Always keep in mind that as the throttle lever is released to idle position, less directional control is available. To turn the watercraft, both steering and throttle are necessary. This watercraft has the capability of turning more sharply than other crafts, however, unless in an emergency, do not negotiate sharp, high speed turns. You and your passenger(s) could be thrown from the watercraft.
PAGE 10
smo2000-002a.book Page 8 Tuesday, September 28, 1999 12:00 PM  Riding with a passenger(s) or pulling other crafts, tubes, skies or wakeboards makes the watercraft handle differently and requires greater skill. Do not overload the watercraft or take on more passengers than designated for the particular watercraft. Overloading can affect maneuverability, stability and performance. Avoid adding on accessories, or equipment which may alter your control of the watercraft.
PAGE 11
smo2000-002a.book Page 9 Tuesday, September 28, 1999 12:00 PM Maintenance  Only perform servicing procedures which are detailed in this guide.
