TRANSPORTATION, STORAGE
AND PRE-SEASON PREPARATION
Transportation
Tie the watercraft to both bow and
stern (front/rear) eyelets so that it is
firmly retained on the trailer. Use addi-
tional tie-downs if necessary.
All Models Except XP Limited
Ensure seat and storage cover are
properly latched.
XP Limited
Ensure engine cover is properly
latched.
All Models
A SEA-DOO cover should protect the
watercraft, particularly before driving
on dirt roads, to prevent dirt entry
through the air intake opening(s).
Observe trailering safety precautions.
Storage
It is recommended that the watercraft
be serviced by an authorized dealer for
storage but the following operations
can be performed by you with a mini-
mum of tools.
Engine Draining
Check engine drain hose (lowest hose
of engine). Make sure there is no sand
or other particles in it and that it is not
obstructed so that water can leave the
engine. Clean hose and fitting as nec-
essary.
TYPICAL
1. Engine drain hose
◆
WARNING
Always turn the fuel valve to OFF
position when transporting or
docking the watercraft.
-
CAUTION
Do not route ropes or tie-downs
over the seat as they could pro-
duce permanent damage. Wrap
ropes or tie-downs with rags or
similar protectors where they can
touch the watercraft body.
-
CAUTION
Do not run the engine during the
storage period.
-
CAUTION
Water in engine drain hose must
be free to flow out, otherwise wa-
ter could be trapped in engine.
Should water freeze in engine,
severe damage will occur. Check
engine drain hose for obstruc-
tions.
