2005 MASTERCRAFT OWNERS MANUAL–PAG E iii
4: When charging, batteries generate small amounts of dangerous hydrogen gas. This gas is
highly explosive. Keep all sparks, flames and smoking well away from the area. Failure to follow
instructions when charging a battery can cause an electrical charge or even an explosion of
the battery which could cause serious injury or death. (Pages 16-3 and 16-8)
5: The engine box serves as a machinery guard. The engine must be OFF whenever the box is
open. Clothing or body parts can get caught in moving parts, causing serious injury or death.
Keep away from moving parts! (Pages 16-5, 16-6 and 16-7)
6: Adding additional ballast to your MasterCraft boat is not recommended, and can result in
impaired visibility, diminished handling characteristics and instability when operating your
boat, and may result in potential structural and/or engine damage to your boat, which
damage will not be covered by your warranty. (Page 11-1)
7: Use of improper parts can cause component or engine failure, which may result in serious
injury or death! (Page 13-1)
8: Towers on boats are intended for use in wakeboarding only. Use of the tower to tow other
boats, kites or any other purpose may result in serious injury or death, and may damage the
boat, which will not be covered by warranty. (Page 1-3)
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
1: Be sure that all fasteners you use are approved and rated for marine use. Most fasteners used
on MasterCraft boats are stainless steel or specially coated to resist corrosion. (Page 13-1)
2: All replaced fuel system components must meet United States Coast Guard (“USCG”) and
American Boat & Yacht Council, Inc. (“ABYC”) standards, and must be Underwriter’s Labora-
tory (“UL”)-approved. Inferior quality components pose a serious safety threat to you and
others, and the use of inferior components may result in serious injury or death. Resulting
damage may void your warranty. (Page 16-17)
3: Continuing to operate the boat while the temperature is above normal operating parameters
may cause serious damage to your engine. Damage to your engine resulting from operating
the engine in an overheated condition can be costly to repair. Such damage is not covered by
your warranty! (Page 6-2)
4: Do not continue to run the engine if the oil pressure is low. If you do, the engine can become
so hot that it–or surrounding components–could catch fire. You or others could be burned
and the boat seriously damaged. Check your oil level and add an appropriate amount of
approved motor oil before operating again or have your boat serviced by your local
MasterCraft dealer. Note that damage to your engine from neglected oil problems can be
costly to repair. Such damage is not covered by your warranty. (Page 6-2)
CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates
a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in property damage.
1: To ensure proper break-in and lubrication, boat owners should not remove the factory break-
3: Battery electrolyte fluid is dangerous. It contains sulfuric acid, which is poisonous, corrosive and
caustic. If electrolyte is spilled or placed on any part of the human body, immediately flush the
area with large amounts of clean water and seek medical aid. (Page 16-3)
