Watercraft operation functions
EJU40522Reverse system (EX SPORT)EWJ01231
Do not use the reverse function to slow
down or stop the watercraft as it could
cause you to lose control, be ejected, or
impact the handlebars.
Make sure that there are no obstacles or
people behind you before shifting into
reverse.
Do not touch the reverse gate while the
shift lever is being operated, otherwise
you could be pinched.
When the shift lever is moved to the reverse
position, the reverse gate lowers and deflects
the water jet being discharged from the jet
thrust nozzle. This allows the watercraft to
move in reverse.
To shift into reverse:
(1) Release the throttle lever and let the en-gine speed return to idle.
(2) Pull the shift lever rearward until it stops in the reverse position. The reverse gate
will lower and the watercraft will start
moving in reverse at trolling speed.
To shift into forward:
(1) Release the throttle lever and let the en-gine speed return to idle.
(2) Push the shift lever forward until it stops in the forward position. The reverse gate
will rise and the watercraft will start mov-
ing forward at trolling speed.

Make sure that there are no obstacles or
people behind you before shifting into
reverse.
Do not touch the reverse gate while the
RiDE lever is being operated, otherwise
you could be pinched.
If the RiDE lever and throttle lever are
being operated at the same time, do not
release only the RiDE lever. Otherwise,
the watercraft could accelerate more
quickly than expected, which may lead
to an accident.
The RiDE lever and throttle lever can be oper-
ated to change the forward or rearward
movement of the watercraft only when the
engine is running. When the RiDE lever is
