Long-term storageEWJ00331
Always place the watercraft upright in a
horizontal position when storing it, other-
wise fuel could leak out into the engine or
engine compartment, which could create
a fire hazard.
Storage for long periods of time, such as win-
ter storage, requires preventive maintenance
to ensure against deterioration. It is advisable
to have the watercraft serviced by a Yamaha
dealer prior to storage.
However, the following procedures can be
performed easily by the owner.
EJU40763Cleaning
(1) Flush the cooling water passages. (See
page 74 for information on flushing the
cooling water passages.)
TIP:
If you will be storing the watercraft for a pro-
longed period, such as winter storage, top off
the fuel tank with fresh gasoline and add fuel
stabilizer and conditioner to the fuel tank ac-
cording to the manufacturer’s instruction be-
fore starting the engine.
(2) Clean the watercraft. (See page 75 for in-formation on cleaning the watercraft.)
Wax the hull with a non-abrasive wax.
EJU44402Lubrication
To keep moving parts sliding or rotating
smoothly, lubricate them with water-resistant
grease.

and ball joint
TIP:
Disconnect the shift cable from the ball joint
before lubricating.
EX DELUXE / EX LIMITED: Shift rod (re-
verse gate end) and ball joint
TIP:
Disconnect the shift rod from the ball joint be-
fore lubricating.
EJU44790Rustproofing
Rustproofing the hull, deck, and engine
Spray metallic parts of the hull, deck, and en-
gine with a rust inhibitor.
Rustproofing the internal engine compo-
nents
Rustproof the internal engine components
with a rust inhibitor.
To rustproof the internal engine components:
(1) Remove the seat and fire extinguisherholder. (See page 37 for seat removal
and installation procedures and page 42
for information on the fire extinguisher
holder.)
(2) Remove the plastic tie that is fastening the fuel hose to the holder on the star-
board side of the air filter case.

(3) Release the hooks on the port side of theair filter case, and remove the air filter
case cover.
(4) Spray a rust inhibitor into the intake opening for 3 seconds. WARNING! Do
not spray flammable rust inhibitor
products on engine surfaces while the engine is hot. The sprayed substance
or propellants could catch fire.
[EWJ00262]
(5) Place the air filter case cover in its origi-
nal position, and then fit the hooks onto
the cover.
TIP:
Make sure that the air filter case cover is se-
curely installed.
(6) Fasten the fuel hose to the holder usingthe plastic tie.
(7) Make sure that the area around the wa- tercraft is clear, and then start the engine
in a well-ventilated area and let it run at
idle for 15 seconds. (See page 24 for in-
formation on starting the engine.)
(8) Stop the engine.
(9) Securely install the fire extinguisher hold- er and seat in their original positions.
