EJU33560Lubrication
WARNING
EWJ00300
To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:
Never pour or spray gasoline, or any sub-
stance other than a rust inhibitor through
the hole in the carburetor silencer cover.
CAUTION:
ECJ00150
Be sure to install the silencer cap se-
curely after fogging the engine, other-
wise water could enter the engine and
cause damage.
Do not run the engine for more than 15
seconds on land, otherwise the engine
could overheat.
(1) Remove the silencer cap.
(2) Start the engine with the watercraft in a
well-ventilated area.
(3) With the engine running at a fast idle,
quickly spray as much rust inhibitor as
possible through the hole in the silencer
cover. Keep spraying until the engine
stalls (or a maximum of 15 seconds).
(4) Install the silencer cap securely.
(5) Lubricate all cables such as the throttle,
choke, and steering cables.
NOTE:
Use a suitable marine grease applicator to
pressure-lubricate the cables and purge out
any moisture between the inner and outer ca-
bles.
(6) Lubricate the areas of the watercraft
specified in “Lubrication points” on page
57.
EJU33640Fuel system
WARNING
EWJ00290
GASOLINE AND ITS VAPORS ARE HIGH-
LY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLOSIVE!
Do not smoke when refueling, and keep
away from sparks, flames, and other
sources of ignition.
Stop the engine before refueling.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the
watercraft in a horizontal position.
Do not stand or sit on the watercraft
while refueling in case of fire.
Take care not to spill gasoline. If gaso-
line spills, wipe it up immediately with
dry rags. Always properly dispose of
gasoline-soaked rags.
Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Stop fill-
ing when the fuel level just reaches the
bottom of the filler tube. Do not fill up the
filler tube because fuel expands as it
warms up and could overflow. If tempo-
rarily leaving the watercraft with a full
fuel tank, do not leave it in direct sun-
light. Leave it in a well-ventilated area
with the watercraft in a horizontal posi-
tion.
Tighten the fuel tank filler cap securely
after refueling.
If you should swallow some gasoline, in-
hale a lot of gasoline vapor, or get gaso-

Emergency procedures EJU34630Cleaning the jet intake and impeller
If weeds or debris get caught in the jet 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, return to
shore and check the intake and impeller. Al-
ways stop the engine before beaching the wa-
tercraft.
WARNING
EWJ00780
Before attempting to remove weeds or de-
bris from the jet intake or impeller area,
shut the engine off and remove the clip
from the engine shut-off switch. Severe in-
jury or death could result from coming incontact with the rotating parts of the jet
pump.
CAUTION:
ECJ00650
If weeds or debris get caught in the jet in-
take, do not operate the watercraft above
trolling speed until they have been re-
moved.
(1) Turn the watercraft on its side as shown.
