Daily Care
WARNING
Serious injury and damage to the watercraft will
result if the jet pump and impeller are cleaned
while the engine is running. Always stop the
engine, remove the lanyard lock plate and
disconnect the battery before servicing the jet
pump and impeller.
10. Stop the engine and disable all starting
mechanisms. Clean the jet pump, impeller and
speedometer paddle wheel of any weeds and debris
that may have collected during operation.
11. Inspect the area for damage. If damage is found,
see your Polaris dealer for service.
NOTE:
Whenever possible, avoid operating the
watercraft in weedy areas. If it’s unavoidable,
vary the watercraft speed, as weeds tend to
accumulate more rapidly at steady and
trolling speeds.
Battery
If the watercraft battery is run down, remove it and
have it recharged. Refer to battery charging
recommendations and service procedures beginning on
page 89.
WARNING
A weak battery may not be able to start the
engine and could leave you stranded, which
could result in serious injury or death. Never
operate the watercraft with a weak battery.
Anti-Corrosion Treatment
Spray all the metal components in the engine
compartment with a lubricating type rust inhibitor. We
recommend T9 metal protectant.
Apply dielectric grease on battery terminals and
connections.
NOTE:
Never leave shop cloths or tools in the
engine compartment or bilge.
