When the engine is running, cooling water is
circulated in the engine, and then it is dis-
charged from the pilot outlet.
To check for proper operation of the cooling
system, check that water is being discharged
from the pilot outlet. If water is not being dis-
charged from the outlet, cooling water may
not be circulating in the engine. When this oc-
curs, stop the engine and check for the cause.
(See pages 28 and 71 for more information.)
NOTE:
● If the cooling water passages are dry, it will
take about 20 seconds for the water to
reach the outlet after the engine is started.
● Water discharge may not be constant at
idle, therefore, open the throttle a little to
check that water discharges properly.

Steering system
Your watercraft can be steered by turning the
handlebars in the direction you wish to travel.
When the handlebars are turned, the angle of
the jet thrust nozzle is changed, and the direc-
tion of the watercraft is changed accordingly.
Since the strength of the jet thrust determines
the speed and degree of a turn, throttle must
always be applied when attempting a turn, ex-
cept at trolling speed.
The angle of the jet thrust nozzle can be ad-
justed to suit operator preference. (See page
61 for adjustment procedures.)
