STORAGE
w
Always place the fuel cock in the “OFF”
position when storing the water vehicle.
Otherwise, fuel could leak out into the
engine or engine compartment, which
would create a fire hazard.
Water vehicle storage for prolonged peri-
ods of time, such as winter storage,
requires preventative maintenance to
ensure against deterioration. It is advis-
able to have the water vehicle serviced by
an authorized Yamaha Water Vehicle
dealer prior to storage. However, the fol-
lowing procedures can be performed by
the owner with a minimum of tools.
