Pull-starting the Engine
With an assistant holding the boat to the boat stand and
bracing the engine with one hand, pull the starting cord briskly
several times. Once the engine fires (begins to start), open the
choke. Prolonged choking will flood the engine with fuel. See
Section 15: Troubleshooting Guide to correct the flooding
condition.
Choking the Engine
Close the choke by rotating the small yellow tubing extension.
This is not necessary if the engine is warm.
NOTE: The engine is water-cooled. Refrain from running the engine without proper cooling water or engine damage will result. Carefully,
place the boat in the water as soon as possible after the engine has been started.
Section 11: Stopping the Engine
Idle the boat near shore and press the kill switch located through
the hole in the hatch as shown.
Section 12: Handling Adjustments
Trim Tabs
On smooth water conditions, the trim tabs may be bent up further
or removed to increase top speed performance. Be sure to reinstall
the trim tab mounting bolts to keep water from entering the boat. Be
aware that the boat may become less stable and may “blow over” with
the increased speed.
Propeller Trim Angle
You may also adjust the propeller strut to add up or down trim to the
propeller by loosening the 2 propeller strut bolts and sliding the
propeller strut up to increase top-end speed (but steering response will
decrease). Lowering the trim angle will increase handling performance
(but may cause the boat to over-steer and decrease speed).
Section 13: Cooling System
Water Pump
The water pump is operated from crankcase pressure. Be sure that
water is exiting the 2 water jackets mounted on the left side of the
boat when the engine is running and the boat is in the water. If water
does not stream out of either the exhaust or cylinder head cooling
ports, immediately stop engine operation and remove obstructions in
the lines or replace broken cooling lines.
Hint: To test each cooling line for obstructions or a leak in the cool-
ing system, place a piece of tubing over the water inlet tube in front
of each rudder and blow into the tube. When testing for obstructions
in the cooling system, be sure to isolate each system by pinching the
appropriate water lines.
Water-Cooled Cylinder Head and Exhaust Manifold
Cooling Jacket
The exhaust system is cooled independently from the cylinder head.
See photo for proper cooling line routing. Do not alter the cooling line
routing method.
