When charging, batteries generate small amounts of danger- ous hydrogen gas. This gas is highly explosive. Keep all sparks, flames and smoking well away from the area. Failure to follow instructions when charging a battery may cause an electrical charge or even an explosion of the battery, which could result in death or serious injury.

MasterCraft recommends the use of a spiral-cell type battery, such as the Optima brand. These batteries exceed other batteries in holding and extending a charge.

Some engine parts become very hot during operation. This inspection must be completed while the engine is cool to prevent burns to your skin. Perform this task before starting the boat.

Inspect the Propeller Shaft Log for Water Entry

After approximately three (3)-to-five (5) minutes of boat operation in the water, shut off the engine and open the engine compartment. Be careful to avoid burns from contact with hot engine parts. The boat is equipped with a dripless shaft log and if it is showing any signs of dripping, the boat must be taken to an authorized Master- Craft dealer’s service department for correction.
