Steering System
Assisted by another person, check

When the handlebar is horizontal,
the jet pump nozzle should be in the

pump nozzle pivots easily and in the

when handlebar is turned to the left,
the nozzle opening must point towards
the LH side of watercraft).

ing steering nozzle operation be-
fore starting. Never turn handle-
bar while someone is near the rear
of the watercraft. Keep away from
steering moving parts (nozzle, iBR
gate, linkages etc.).

lever (ETC) for free and smooth opera-
tion. It should return to its initial posi-
tion immediately after it is released.

fore starting the engine. If any fric-
tion is felt in the throttle lever, refer
to an authorized Sea-Doo dealer.

Check the iBR lever for free and
smooth operation. It should return
