Submerged Watercraft

If the watercraft is submerged and en-
gine is water-flooded, it is strongly rec-
ommended that the watercraft be ser-
viced by an authorized dealer imme-
diately.
In the event the engine cannot be ser-
viced within a few hours, remove
spark plug cables and connect them
on the grounding device.
WARNING
Never crank engine with spark
plugs removed unless spark plug
cables are connected to the
grounding device.
Remove spark plugs and dry them
with a clean and dry cloth.
Cover spark plug holes with a rag.
Crank engine to allow water to escape
from spark plug openings.
Spray BOMBARDIER LUBE lubricant
into spark plug holes.

Towing the Watercraft in
Water
Special precautions should be taken
when towing a Sea-Doo watercraft in
water.
Maximum recommended towing speed
is 24 km/h (15 MPH).
When towing your watercraft in wa-
ter, pinch the water supply hose
from the impeller housing to the en-
gine with a large hose pincher (P/N
529 030 400) shown in the following
illustration.
F01B23Y
This will prevent the cooling system
from filling which may lead to water
being injected into and filling the ex-
haust system. Without the engine run-
ning there isn't any exhaust pressure
to carry the water out the exhaust out-
let.
-
CAUTION
Failure to do this may result in
damage to the engine. If you
must tow a stranded watercraft in
water and do not have a hose
pincher be sure to stay well be-
low the maximum towing speed
of 24 km/h (15 MPH).
Snugly install the hose pincher on the
hose as shown.
