Water separator
Check the water separator 1 for water.
Normally the water separator is empty. The
water separator retains any water entering
through the fuel tank breather hose if the
watercraft is capsized.
If water remains in the water separator,
drain it by removing the drain screw 2.
Place a drain pan under the water separator
to catch the draining water or use a dry cloth
to soak up any water that could spill into the
watercraft. If any water spills into the water-
craft, be sure to wipe it up with a dry cloth.
Be sure to install the drain screw after drain-
ing the water separator.

Bilge
Check for moisture and fuel residue in the
bilge.
This watercraft is equipped with a conven-
tional jet vacuum bilge draining system and
an electric bilge draining system. The elec-
tric bilge draining system is operated when
the engine is running. When excess water
reaches the water inlet of the electric bilge
pump, the water is discharged via the
exhaust passage from the jet thrust nozzle.
A small quantity of water will remain in the
bilge and should be removed manually. To
remove any residual water, perform the fol-
lowing procedure.
To remove water from the bilge:
1. Remove the stern drain plugs.
2. Raise the bow of the watercraft until the
water drains.
3. After the water has drained, wipe the
bilge with dry rags to make sure that the
bilge is thoroughly dry.
4. Install the drain plugs.
