OPERATION
Post Operation Maintenance
Daily Care
Remove the watercraft from the water every day to
inhibit marine organism growth on the hull.
1. Remove the watercraft from the water.
2. Purge residual water from the exhaust system by
starting the engine and revving it repeatedly at
partial throttle for about ten seconds until water no
longer comes out. NOTE: If the craft is towed up
or down a steep hill after removing it from the
water, this procedure may be repeated.
3. Wash the hull, jet pump intake and outlet with
fresh water.
4. Remove the drain plugs to drain any water in the
bilge.
5. Remove the seat and rinse the engine compartment
with a generous amount of fresh water. After the
water has drained, wipe the engine compartment
(bilge) dry with clean towels.
6. If the craft is used in salt water, Polaris
recommends that the inside of the hull (engine and
components) be sprayed with T 9 metal protectant
after each use. See page 101.
7. Reinstall the seat.
8. Clean the drain plugs and openings and reinstall
the plugs.
9. Drain the engine and flush the cooling system. See
page 91.
CAUTION
The engine may overheat and seize if operated
out of water. Never operate the engine for more
than 15 seconds. Never hold the engine at full
throttle while the watercraft is out of the water.
