Jet Pump Water Intake and
Impeller Cleaning
Weeds, shells or debris can get caught
on the intake grate, drive shaft and/or
impeller. A clogged water intake may
cause troubles such as:
1. Cavitation: Engine speed is high
but craft moves slowly due to re-
duced jet thrust; jet pump compo-
nents may be damaged.
2. Overheating: Since the jet pump
operation controls the flow of water
to cool the engine, a clogged intake
will cause the engine to overheat
and damage engine internal compo-
nents.
The clogged area can be cleaned as
2
described in M
Guide .
CAUTION: Avoid craft operation in
weeded areas. If unavoidable, vary
craft speed. Weeds tend to entangle
more at steady and slow speeds. In-
spect water intake grate for damage.
Refer to an authorized Sea-Doo dealer
for repair as necessary.

Capsized Boat

The boat is designed so that it should
not turn over easily due to its long and
wide dimensions. If the boat ever cap-
sizes, remember that it will continue to
float, and it is usually best to remain
with it, you will be more easily located
by others.
WARNING
Operator and passengers should
always wear approved personal
flotation devices.

gine. See an authorized dealer as

tery while installed on the craft.
