Section 02 MAINTENANCE
Subsection 02 (FLUSHING AND LUBRICATION)
4-TEC Engines
Closed Loop Cooling System
The 4-TEC engines are equipped with a closed
loop cooling system which does not need to be
flushed even after salt water use.
Open Loop Cooling System
Flushing the exhaust cooling system including the
intercooler
(if so equipped)
with fresh water is
essential to neutralize corroding effects of salt or
other chemical products present in water. It will
help to remove sand, salt, shells or other particles
in water jackets and/or hoses.
Flushing should be performed when the water-
craft is not expected to be used further the same
day or when the watercraft is stored for any ex-
tended time.
WARNING
Perform this operation in a well ventilated
area. Do not touch any electrical part or jet
pump area when engine is running.
Proceed as follows:
Clean jet pump by spraying water in its inlet and
outlet and then apply a coating of BOMBARDIER
LUBE lubricant or equivalent.
WARNING
Always remove safety lanyard cap from post
to prevent unexpected engine starting before
cleaning the jet pump area. Engine must not
be running for this operation.
Models without a Flushing Connector
in Engine Compartment
Connect a garden hose to connector located at the
rear of watercraft on jet pump support. Do not
open water tap yet.
WARNING
When operating the engine while the water-
craft is out of the water, the heat exchanger
in the ride plate may become very hot. Avoid
any contact with ride plate as burns may oc-
cur.
NOTE:
An optional flushing adapter (P/N 295 500
473) can be used with a quick connect adapter to
ease garden hose installation.

gine compartment (see below).
