Checking the fuel system 

WARNING

EWJ00380

Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
sive. Failure to check for and repair any
fuel leakage could result in a fire or explo-
sion. A fire or explosion can cause severe
injury or death. Shut the engine off. Do not
smoke. Avoid spilling gasoline.
Fuel in the fuel lines is pressurized.
Fuel can spray out and cause injury or a
fire hazard if a fuel line is disconnected.
Do not run the engine with a fuel line dis-
connected.

Check the fuel system for leaks, cracks, and
malfunctions. If any problem is found, consult
a Yamaha dealer.

Check:

Fuel tank filler cap and seal for damage.

Fuel in fuel tank for water and dirt.

Fuel tank for damage, cracks, and leakage.

Fuel hoses and joints for damage, cracks,
and leakage.

Air bleeding passages for leakage.

EJU34230

Fuel tank 

Check the fuel tank for leakage and for water
in the tank. If water is found in the fuel system,
or if the fuel tank needs to be cleaned, have a
Yamaha dealer service the watercraft.

EJU36940

Engine oil and oil filter 

WARNING

EWJ00340

Engine oil is extremely hot immediately af-
ter the engine is turned off. Coming in con-
tact with or getting any engine oil on your
clothes could result in burns.

CAUTION:

ECJ00990

Do not run the engine with too much or
not enough oil in the oil tank. Oil could
spray out and the engine could be dam-
aged.

Be sure to change the engine oil after
the first 10 hours of operation, and every
50 hours thereafter or at the start of a
new season, otherwise the engine will
wear quickly.
The oil filter should be replaced every
year or every 100 hours of operation.
Have a Yamaha dealer replace the oil fil-
ter if necessary.

It is recommended to have a Yamaha dealer
change the engine oil. However, if you choose
to change the oil on your own, refer to the ser-
vice manual for this watercraft.

NOTE:

Dispose of used oil according to local regula-
tions.
