Welcome to Agilis Jettenders!
Welcome to Agilis Jettenders! And thank you for choosing our product!
We have conceived this handbook to give you enough information while at sea. This way we are
sure you will enjoy your ride safely.
The content of this handbook will inform you about the equipment, its operation and maintenance.
It is very important that you read it and familiarise yourself with the boat.
Please note that this jet uses water jet propulsion. Be aware that maneuverability decreases while
decelarating. Handling and operating experience, as well as knowledge of seamanship is
compulsory (please refer to RYA Level 2 or ICC).
At delivery, your Agilis authorized dealer will guide you through the functions and features of the
boat. Do not forget to ll your warranty registration form with the boat‘s CIN. This handbook should
be kept in a secure place and handed over to the next owner.
Your safety is our priority. Therefore we ask you to comply with the safety information provided in
this handbook. Always obey the safety labels tted. Should they become unreadable, we expect
that you replace them. Local laws and restrictions are to be applied. Be aware that the inuence of
drugs and alcohol may affect your judgement.
This symbol appears on a number of labels tted to the tender.
It draws your attention to the message and refers you to the owner‘s handbook.
This safety alert symbol appears throughout the handbook and on various labels
tted to the tender. It means attention, be vigilant, your safety is involved!
Danger: situation that can result in death or serious injury.
Warning: situation that can result in death or serious injury.
Caution: situation that can result in minor or moderate injury.
To avoid personal injuries always secure loose equipment safely. Make sure that equipment
close to machineries are secured in a way that they do not fall into the engines.
Be aware of the environment. In many regions of the world, there are strictly enforced
regulations regarding the protection of the environment. It is the responsibility of the owner/
operator to be aware of applicable regulations and to comply with them.

Hazards & Safety
Risk of ooding and stability
1. Openings in the hull. (see General Layout)
2. Bilge pump.
Amanuallyoperatedbilgepumpistted.
For operating instructions see owner‘s manual of the bilge pump.
Theaudioalarmontheinstrumentpanelsignalsifbilgelevelexceeds50mm.Inthiscase:
1. Switch off the engine.
2. Open the hood to check for water.
 3. Checkforoil.Inthewatercontainsoil,ONLYREMOVEMANUALLY.
4. If water is free from environmentally hazardous substances, then activate the
pump.
CAUTION Check the function of bilge pump at regular intervals.
Clear debris from the pump inlets.
WARNING: This system is not suitable for a complete draining in case of
damage.
3. Stability and buoyancy.
3.1 Position of persons and luggage.
For safe operation we recommend that your passengers sit in the middle of the boat.
 Thelocationofthepassengerswilldirectlyinuencethestabilityofthiscraft.
Sitting on the sides of the boat is ALSO ACCEPTABLE as long as there is someone
sitting on the opposite side.
CAUTION While you are sailing at high speed avoid abrupt turns and
high waves as this might endanger the passengers. Make sure everybody
holds on to the safety ropes. For comfort and safety, reduce speed in waves.
Small children must sit IN the boat. Always wear a lifejacket!
When taking a sharp turn, reduce the speed of your boat. The boat will tilt
considerably inside the turning centre.
3.2 Bilge water should be kept to a minimum
3.3 Stability is reduced by any weight added
3.4 Stability may be reduced when towing
3.5 Breaking waves is a serious stability hazard
Risk of re or explosion
WARNING: Riskofre.Donotstorefuel,tanksfuellinesoranyfuel-relatedcomponentsin
direct sunlight.
1. ENGINE
Instructions for safe operation of the engine:
a) run the engine compartment fan for 5 minutes before switching on / after switching
off the engine
 b) ensureowofcoolingwater
c) ensure that ventilation ducts are free
d) no smoking when refuelling and treatment of fuel spillage in craft
e) check for possible damage of fuel lines
 f) avoidcontactofammablematerialswithhotengineparts
g) do not store equipment containing petrol in compartments not designed for this
purpose.
2. FIRE-FIGHTINGEQUIPMENT
2.1 FIREEXTINGUISHER
Anautomaticreextinguisheristtedintheenginecompartmentonstarboardside.
The1Kgcapacityofthereextinguishercanprotectanenginecompartmentupto1,7.Theprotec-
ted space of the boat is 1,25 .
The red light on the pilot desk blinks when:
 1. thereisnotenoughpressureinthere-extinguisher.
 2. there-extinguisherhasbeenactivated.
How it works:
Thepresenceofpersonnelisnotneeded.Unitinterventionisdonebysealbulbrupture.
Increaseoftemperatureduringrstperiodofre(93°)willcauseabulbbreaking,followedbythe
dischargeoftheextinguishingunit.Incaseofreinenginecompartment,theoperatorisinformedbya
red light blinking on the pilot desk. Tocheck,usereportinstalledonstarboardsideofsteeringconsole.
ChecktheengineroombypushingopentheFirePort.Incaseofre,putoutusingreextinguisher.
The boat owner/operator shall
 -havere-ghtingequipmentcheckedattheintervalsindicatedontheequipment,
 -replacereextinguisherifexpiredordischargedbydevicesofidenticalre-ghtingcapacity.
Responsibility of boat owner/operator
 a) toensurethatre-ghtingequipmentisreadilyaccessiblewhentheboatisoccupied
 b) toinformmembersofthecrewaboutlocationandoperationofre-ghting
equipment
WARNING never obstruct safety controls, e.g. fuel valves, switches of the electrical
system.
WARNING never modify any of the craft‘s systems (especially electrical, fuel) or allow
 unqualiedpersonneltomodifyanyofthecraft‘ssystems.
WARNING never smoke while handling fuel.

Winter Storage
Due to temperature changes and humidity, the boat has to be stored in a dry and aerated place.
Buoyancy Tube:
Beforestoringyourboat,deateandrinsethetubesthoroughlytoremovealldebris.Leavetodrybefore
polishing.Thetubesshouldbestoredslightlyinated.
Battery:
Thisboatusesawetcellbattery.WhenstoringtheboatforWinter,disconnecttheearthterminal.Usean
accumatetoextendbatterylife.
Fuel System:
Fillthetankcompletelybeforestorage.Useafuelstabilizertominimisefuelbreakdown.
Cables:
All control cables should be greased at both ends.
Cooling System: Proceed as in chapter Flushing Procedure to remove debris that may be found in the raw
watercoolingcircuit.Checktheanti-freezecontentoftheenginecoolant.Usefrostprotectionsuchasdistilled
watermixedwithpropyleneglycoltoa1:1ratio.Usethesamemixtureintheopenloopsystem.
Engine Oil:
The engine oil should be changed prior to storage. Leaving used oil in the engine for longer periods may cause
corrosion.
Cylinders:
Approximately10mlofcleanengineoilshouldbelledintoeachsparkplug.Starttheengineafewtimes
before screwing back the spark plugs.
Hull & Deck:
Thedeckshouldbecleansedonaregularlybasis.Useamilddetergentandwarmwater.Rinsethoroughlyto
removedebris.BothhullanddeckshouldbepolishedregularlytoprotectfromUVchalking.
Corrosion Protection:
White grease, i.e. Vaseline, should be applied to the battery isolator switch, upholstery press studs and the
running light pole base. Spray the key switch with a maintenance spray. Engine, electrical connections, helm,
and jet pump area should be maintained with corrosion guard.
