Throttle
Squeeze and release the throttle lever
several times to make sure that there is no
hesitation in its travel. It should be smooth
over the complete range, and spring back to
the idle position when released.
WARNING
Before starting the engine, always check
the operation of the throttle lever. It
should move smoothly through its full
range of operation, and should spring
back to the idle position when released.

Steering system
Check for looseness in the handlebars.
Turn them as far as possible to the right and
left to make sure that operation is smooth
and unrestricted throughout the whole
range. Make sure that the jet thrust nozzle
also changes directions as the handlebars
are turned, and that there is no free play
between the handlebars and the jet thrust
nozzle.

Move it up and down to make sure operation

whole range. Make sure the steering pole
does not have any side play.
