M25 Jet Drive

Lubricating the Driveshaft Bearing

Before each use, lubricate the driveshaft bearing. Refer to Maintenance - Lubricating the
Driveshaft Bearing.

Operating In Freezing Temperatures

If there is a chance of ice forming on the water, the jet drive should be raised out of the water and
drained completely of water. If ice should form at the water level inside the outboard driveshaft
housing, it will block water flow to the engine causing possible damage. Do not start the engine
until the ice is clear.

Pre-Starting Check List

• An approved personal flotation device of suitable size for each person aboard and readily
accessible (it is the law).
• A ring type life buoy or buoyant cushion designed to be thrown to a person in the water.
• Know your boats maximum load capacity. Look at the boat capacity plate.
• Fuel supply OK.
• Ensure the boat drain plug is installed.
• Arrange passengers and load in the boat so the weight is distributed evenly and everyone is
seated in a proper seat.
• Tell someone where you are going and when you expect to return.
