Section 6
Pre-Operation Checks
It is the owner’s responsibility to check all of the items listed below
to be certain all preparation steps are completed before you use
your boat. Checking these items periodically will soon become a
habit. If leaks or other abnormal conditions are found, stop using
the boat and contact your Nautique dealer to have the problem
corrected.
Get into the habit of performing these checks in the same order
each time so that it becomes routine.
• Make sure to check all safety items.
• Check that drain plug is properly installed.
• Check condition of propeller.
• Check that all batteries are fully charged and at the proper
level.
• Verify the amount of fuel in the fuel tanks.
• Be sure the lights, horn, bilge pumps and other electrical
equipment are in operating condition.
• Check that steering system operates properly.
• Make sure your float plan is submitted to a responsible
person.
• Refer to your engine operation and maintenance manual for
additional pre-operation checks.
