Section 07 COOLING SYSTEM
Subsection 02 (CIRCUIT, COMPONENTS AND CARE)
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 water, pinch the
water supply hose from the jet pump housing to the
engine with a large Hose Pincher (P/N 529 032 500).

This will prevent the cooling system from filling
which may lead to water being injected into and
filling the exhaust 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 result in dam-
age to the engine. If you must tow a stranded wa-
tercraft 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 sup-
ply hose as shown in the following illustrations.
