Stopping the Engine
Any time you want to stop the engine, especially if there
is a problem with the engine, stop the engine by pressing
the KILL switch.
CAUTION: Do not touch the engine and muffler.
They become extremely hot during operation and
can cause injury or fire.
Boating Tips
Avoid boating near other watercraft, stationary objects,
waves, wakes and other rapidly moving water, wildlife,
floating debris or overhanging trees. You should also be
careful to avoid boating in areas where there are many
people, such as swimming areas, park waterways or
fishing areas. Consult local laws and ordinances before
choosing a location to pilot your boat.
Maximum speeds are only achieved when the water
conditions are smooth and there is little wind. A sharp
turn, wind or waves can turn over a boat when it is
moving quickly. Always pilot your boat for the wind and
water conditions so that the boat does not turn over.
When running your boat for the first time, we
recommend calm wind and water conditions so that you
can learn how the boat responds to your control.
When making turns, decrease the throttle to reduce the
probability of flipping the boat over.
Never operate your boat in less than 12 inches (30.5cm)
of water.
If you need to retrieve your boat from the water, use
fishing equipment or another boat.
NOTICE: When running at full speed in choppy waters,
the prop may exit and re-enter the water repeatedly and
very quickly, subjecting the propeller and flex shaft to
some stress. Frequent stress may damage the propeller
and flex shaft.
CAUTION: Never operate your boat in extreme
temperatures or turbulent water.
CAUTION: Never attempt to retrieve a downed
boat by swimming.
When You Are Finished
1. Power off the receiver.
2. Power off the transmitter.
3. Disconnect and remove the battery from the boat.
CAUTION: Never power off the transmitter or
receiver before stopping the engine. You will lose
control of your vehicle.
Tip: Always remove the canopy before storage or
moisture may allow mold and mildew to grow in the boat.
