Righting a Capsized Watercraft
Capsizing a watercraft is not recommended by Polaris
and should be avoided. Overturning a watercraft is not
considered the normal operation for which your vehicle
is intended.
WARNING
This watercraft does not right itself if it has been
capsized. If the operator is unable to right a
capsized watercraft, operator and passengers
may be stranded, which could lead to serious
injury or death. Follow the procedures outlined in
the owner's manual and on the capsize decal,
which is found on the rear of the craft.
CAUTION
Failure to right a capsized craft promptly and
correctly may result in serious engine damage if
the engine is operated with air or water in the
lines. A capsized watercraft must be uprighted in
a clockwise direction as viewed from the rear. If
the watercraft has remained in a 180° (capsized)
position for more than two minutes, all fuel and oil
lines must be inspected for water and/or air.

After righting the craft, prevent engine damage by
following the procedures for a submerged
(waterlogged) engine beginning on page 70.
1. Be sure the engine is
stopped immediately
after capsizing. The
engine will overheat
if it continues to run
while the craft is
capsized.
2. Upright the vehicle
immediately by
turning it in a clockwise
direction only (as viewed from the rear).
3. Board the craft from the rear.
4. Remove the seat and bail all water from the engine
compartment.
5. Reinstall the seat, sit down and start the engine.
6. If the engine fails to start shortly after being
uprighted, make no further attempts to start it.
Serious engine damage could result. Follow the
procedures for a submerged (waterlogged) engine
on page 70.
