Operation
WARNING
Before operating your watercraft,
become familiar with all controls. Con-
sult your Yamaha dealer about any con-
trol or function you do not fully
understand. Failure to understand how
controls work could cause an accident or
prevent you from avoiding an accident.
CAUTION
Make sure that stern drain plugs are
securely tightened before launching the
watercraft.

Engine break-in
The engine break-in period is essential to
allow the various components of the engine
to wear and polish themselves to the correct
operating clearances. This ensures proper
performance and promotes longer compo-
nent life.
CAUTION
● For the first tankful of operation, pre-
mix a 50:1 mixture of fuel and oil (in
addition to the oil in the oil tank).
● After break-in, use straight gasoline
for normal operation.
1. Launch the watercraft and start the
engine. (See pages 3-16 to 3-18 for
engine starting procedures.)
2. Run the engine at the lowest possible
speed for 5 minutes.
