Inspecting the fuel system
WARNING@ Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
sive. Failure to check for and repair any
fuel leakage could result in fire or explo-
sion. A fire or explosion can cause
severe injury or death. Shut off the
engine. Do not smoke. Avoid spilling
gasoline.
Fuel in hose is pressurized.
Fuel can spray out and cause injury or a
fire hazard if fuel line is disconnected.
Do not attempt to run engine with fuel
line disconnected.
@
Check the fuel system for leaks, cracks,
or malfunctions. If any problem is found,
consult a Yamaha dealer.
Check:

Fuel tank for water or dirt.

Fuel tank cap (seal) for damage.

Fuel tank for damage, cracks or leakage.

Fuel hose joint for leakage.

Fuel hose for cracks or other damage.

Air bleeding passages for leakage.
EJU18410
Fuel tank
Check the fuel tank 1 for leakage or
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

system. If the settings are changed poor
engine performance and damage may
result.

Checking the trolling speed
1. Put the watercraft in the water.
2. Start the engine and warm it up. Use the
tachometer in the multifunction informa-
tion center to check the trolling speed.
If the trolling speed is out of specification,
have a Yamaha dealer service the water-
craft. Trolling speed: 1,250–1,450 r/min

Emergency procedures

Cleaning the jet intake and
impeller
If weeds or debris get caught in the intake
or impeller, cavitation can occur, causing jet
thrust to decrease even though engine
speed rises. If this condition is allowed to
continue, the engine will overheat and may
seize. If there is any sign that the jet intake
or impeller is clogged with weeds or debris,
beach the watercraft and check the intake
and impeller. Always stop the engine before
beaching the watercraft.
WARNING@ Before attempting to remove weeds or
debris from the jet intake or impeller
areas, shut the engine off and remove
the clip from the engine shut-off switch.
Severe injury or death could result from
contact with the rotating parts of the jet
pump.
@
1. Turn the watercraft on its side as shown.
CAUTION:@
Place a suitable clean cloth or carpet-
ing underneath the watercraft to pro-
tect it from abrasions and scratches.

Always turn the watercraft over onto
its port (left) side.

When turning the watercraft on its
side, support the bow so the handle-
bars cannot be bent or damaged.
