Should the person operating the PWC (personal water craft) fall overboard, the lanyard will be pulled out and switch off the engine. This prevents the PWC going round in circles and injuring or killing anyone in the water.
The main function of a Personal Watercraft (PWC) engine shut-off line, often referred to as the lanyard or safety switch, is to enhance rider safety. It connects the operator to the PWC, ensuring that if the rider falls off or is thrown from the craft, the engine will automatically shut off, preventing the PWC from continuing to operate uncontrollably. This feature helps reduce the risk of accidents and injuries in the water.
