Taking Care of the Unexpected
237
If the Intake or Propulsion System Is Clogged
1. After shutting the engine off, remove your
PWC from the water.
2. Remove the lock clip from the engine stop
button/switch.
3. Disconnect the battery cables.
4. If possible, use a protective pad or cardboard
to prevent scratching when you turn your
PWC on its side for cleaning.
5. Rotate your PWC clockwise (from the rear,
90° max.) to its right side. Do not push the
engine start button.
Rotating the personal watercraft
counterclockwise to its left side, and
maintaining this position while cleaning the
intake system, could allow a substantial
amount of oil to leak from the engine.
6. Check and, if necessary, clean all
components (intake grate, driveshaft,
impeller, jet pump steering nozzle) of the
water intake/propulsion system.
7. After uprighting your PWC, check for
leaks in the engine compartment.
