Post Operation Check And Care

NOTE: Remove the watercraft from the water every day to inhibit
marine organism growth on the hull.
1. Remove the watercraft from the water.
2. Purge the residual water from the exhaust system by starting the
engine and revving the engine repeatedly at partial throttle for
about ten seconds until water stops coming out of the exhaust
system.
Never operate the engine for more than 15 seconds or hold the
engine at full throttle while the watercraft is out of the water. The
engine may overheat and seize.
3. Wash down the hull, jet pump intake and outlet with fresh water.
4. Remove the drain
plug(s). Allow any
water in the bilge to
drain out. Rinse the
engine
compartment with a
generous amount of
fresh water. After
the water has drained, wipe the engine compartment (bilge) dry.
Install the seat. Install the drain plugs once you are sure the
opening is clean.
