End of the Day Checklist
NOTICE
Since JET SKI personal watercraft are not
designed to be docked in the water for ex-
tended periods, prolonged immersion in wa-
ter will cause the hull paint to bubble and
peel, as well as electrolytic erosion of some
metal parts in the jet pump. To prevent this,
remove your JET SKI watercraft from the wa-
ter at the end of each day’s use; do not leave
it in the water overnight. Your JET SKI water-
craft will last longer and look better.
Drain the Exhaust System
To prevent major engine damage and to help pro-
long the life of the exhaust filter, you must perform
the following procedure to expel excess water from
the exhaust system. This helps prevent premature
wear due to internal engine corrosion and the build
up of salt or other mineral deposits that can lead to
cooling system blockage and overheating.
•
After each use in fresh water, remove the water-
craft from the water.
•
Start the engine and run it for several seconds to
purge the exhaust system of excess water. Rev
the engine repeatedly, until water stops coming
out of the exhaust at the stern.
NOTICE
To prevent overheating resulting in engine
and exhaust system damage, do not run the
engine with the watercraft out of the water for
more than 15 seconds at a time. Never oper-
ate the engine at maximum speed out of the
water.
•
After each use in salt water, flush the cooling
system with fresh water (see the Cooling System
Flushing section in the MAINTENANCE AND
ADJUSTMENTS chapter). This will help prevent
build up of salt deposits and eventual cooling
system blockage.
Clean the Engine Compartment
•
Remove the seats.
•
If water has accumulated in the engine compart-
ment, remove the drain screws in the stern to drain
water out of the compartment.
•
When the watercraft has been used at sea, rinse
the engine compartment with fresh water.
•
Be sure to reinstall the drain screws after draining.
