Towing the Craft in Water

Special precautions should be taken
when towing a craft in water.
Maximum recommended towing speed
is 24 km/h (15 MPH).
When towing your craft in water, pinch
the water supply hose from the impel-
ler housing to the engine with a large
hose pincher (P/N 529 032 500) 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 outlet.
CAUTION: Failure to do this may re-
sult in damage to the engine. If you
must tow a stranded craft in water
and do not have a hose pincher be
sure to stay well below the maximum
towing speed of 24 km/h (15 MPH).
Snugly install the hose pincher on the
water supply hose as shown.

TYPICAL
1. Hose pincher
CAUTION: When finished towing
the craft, hose pincher should be re-
moved before operating it. Failure
to do so will result in damage to the
engine.
Low-Charge Battery
Condition
See your authorized Sea-Doo dealer to
have it charged or replaced.

tery while installed on the craft.
