Doin’it on your new Sea-Doo Sport Boat

Each operator has a responsibility to ensure the safety of his/her passenger(s) and of other water users. Please follow all safety instructions and operate your craft with care.
We encourage you to have an Annual Safety Inspection of your craft. Please contact your authorized Sea-Doo dealer for further details.
Finally, we urge you to visit your authorized Sea-Doo dealer regularly for regular and safety maintenance as well as any craft accessories you may require.
Have fun and... Bon Voyage.

FOREWORD
The Operator’s Guide and Safety
Handbook have been prepared to acquaint the owner/operator or passenger with this personal craft and its various controls, maintenance and safe riding instructions. Each is indispensable for the proper use of the product, and should be kept in a waterproof bag with the craft at all times. Make sure you read and understand the content of each document.
For any questions pertaining to the warranty and its application, consult the WARRANTY section in this guide, and/or an authorized SEA-DOO dealer.
The information contained in this guide should always be used in conjunction with the information included in Mercury Marine (M 2 ) Jet Drive Operator’s
Guide .
This guide uses the following symbols to emphasize particular information.
WARNING
Identifies an instruction which, if not followed, may cause serious personal injuries including the possibility of death.
CAUTION: Denotes an instruction which, if not followed, may damage the craft and/or components.
NOTE: Indicates supplementary information needed to fully complete an instruction.
Although the mere reading of such information does not eliminate the hazard, the understanding and application of the information will promote its correct use.
The information and components/ system descriptions contained in this guide are correct at the time of publication. Bombardier Motor Corporation of America (B.M.C.A.) however, maintains a policy of continuous improvement of its products without imposing upon itself any obligation to install them on products previously manufactured.
Because of our ongoing commitment to product quality and innovation,
Bombardier reserves the right at any time to discontinue or change specifications, designs, features, models or equipment without incurring obligation.
The illustrations in this document show the typical construction of the different assemblies and may not represent the full detail or exact shape of the parts.
However, they represent parts that have the same or similar function.
It is understood that this guide may be translated into another language. In the event of any discrepancy, the English version shall prevail.
Specifications are given in the SI metric system with the SAE U.S. equivalent in parenthesis. Where precise accuracy is not required, some conversions are rounded off for easier use.
A Shop Manual can be obtained for complete service, maintenance and more repair information.

SAFETY MEASURES
General
To fully appreciate the pleasures, enjoyment and excitement of boating there are some basic rules that should be observed and followed by any boater. Some rules may be new to you or covered in the PWC/Sport boat Safety Handbook or Safety Video , others may be common sense or obvious… irrespective, we ask that you please take a few minutes of your time to completely read these safety instructions before you operate your craft. Failure to follow this safety information and safe boating rules could result in injury, including the possibility of death to you, your passenger(s), or other water users.
Become completely familiar with the controls and operation of the craft before embarking on your first trip or taking on a passenger(s). If you have not had the opportunity to do so with your dealer, practice driving solo in a suitable area and feel the response of each control. Be fully familiar with all controls before applying the throttle above idle speed. As its operator, you control and are responsible for the craft’s safe operation.
Operation
Always perform the pre-operation checks as specified in this guide.
Always keep in mind that as the throttle lever is released to idle position, less directional control is available. To turn the craft, both steering and throttle are necessary.
Like any other boats, this craft has no brake. Stopping distance will vary depending on initial speed, load, wind, and water conditions. Practice stopping and docking in a safe, traffic free area to have an idea of how long it will take to stop the craft under varying conditions. Do not release throttle when trying to steer away from objects. You need throttle to steer. Do not use the craft’s reverse, if so equipped, to stop.
Ensure that all passengers know how to swim and how to reboard the craft from the water.
The operator and passenger(s) should be properly seated and wearing an approved PFD before starting or moving the craft and at all times when craft is in motion.
Do not start or operate the craft if a person(s) is seated on the sun deck or swim platform, or are nearby in the water.
The craft’s jet thrust can cause injury. Always accelerate slowly.
To prevent accidental starting or unauthorized use, always detach the safety lanyard from the craft especially when swimmers are boarding or nearby, or during removal of any weeds or debris from the intake grate.
Riding with a passenger(s) or pulling other boats, tubes, skier or wakeboarder makes the craft handle differently and requires greater skill. Do not overload the craft or take on more passengers than designated for the particular craft. Overloading can affect maneuverability, stability and performance. Avoid adding on accessories, or equipment which may alter your control of the craft. The craft may be fitted with tow eyelets which can be used to attach a ski rope. However, do not use these eyelets or the craft’s cleats to tow a parasail. Severe craft damage may occur.
6
lmo2001-002a.book Page 7 Tuesday, May 16, 2000 9:52 AM
In shallow water, proceed with caution and at very low speeds.
Grounding or abrupt stops may result in injury. Debris may also be picked up and be thrown rearward by the jet pump onto people or property.
Respect no wake zones, the rights of other water users and the environment. As the “skipper” and owner of a boat you are responsible for damage to other boats caused by the wake of your craft. Allow no one to throw refuse overboard.
This craft is equipped with navigation lights which should be used between sunset and sunrise. Reduce speed and do not operate the craft in reduced visibility.
Remember, gasoline fumes are inflammable and explosive. Always adhere to the fueling procedure contained in this guide and those given to you by the marina. Always verify fuel level before use and during the ride. Apply the principle of
1/3 fuel to destination, 1/3 back and
1/3 reserve fuel supply. Do not carry spare fuel or inflammable liquids in any of the storage or engine compartments.
Combustion engine needs air to operate; consequently this craft can not be totally watertight. Any maneuvers such as figure eights etc., that cause the upper deck to be under water may cause severe engine problems due to water ingestion.
Refer to “Special Procedures“ and
Limited Warranty contained in this guide.
Operation of this craft by a minor or disabled person is NOT recommended.
Maintenance
Only perform servicing procedures which are detailed in this guide. Further assistance or information can be obtained from your authorized
Sea-Doo dealer. In many instances proper tools and training is required for certain servicing or repair procedures.
Maintain the craft and equipment in top condition at all times. Adhere to the prescribed maintenance schedules. An annual inspection of the craft is always a good recommendation that should be followed.
The bilge must be kept clean of oil, water or other foreign materials.
Do not attempt to lift the craft without special equipment and training.
The engine and the corresponding components identified in this guide should not be utilized on product(s) other than for those they were designed. Maintenance procedures and specified tightening torque must be strictly adhered to. Never attempt repairs unless the appropriate tools are available. These craft are designed with parts dimensioned in both the metric and the imperial systems. When replacing fasteners, make sure to use only those recommended by Bombardier. If required, contact your authorized Sea-Doo dealer for further servicing information.
Operate your craft prudently and have fun. Don’t forget that all persons must assist other boaters in an emergency.

Principle of Operation
Propulsion
Engine is directly coupled to a drive shaft which, in turn, rotates an impeller. This impeller is accurately adjusted in a housing where the water is drawn up from underneath the craft. Then, the water flows through the impeller to a venturi. The venturi accelerates the water and produces thrust to move the craft. Pushing the throttle lever forward increase engine speed and therefore craft speed.
WARNING
Whenever an engine is to be started, the operator and passengers should always be sitting in the craft with the shift lever in neutral position and throttle lever in idle position.
47
lmo2001-002a.book Page 48 Tuesday, May 16, 2000 9:52 AM

lmo2001-002a.book Page 49 Tuesday, May 16, 2000 9:52 AM
NOTE: To obtain maximum efficiency and control from the reverse, increase engine speed to slightly above idle.
Too much RPM will create water turbulence and reduce reverse efficiency.
In reverse position, turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction that you want to move the rear of the craft.
For example, to steer the rear of the craft to the left side, turn the steering wheel to the right side.
WARNING
Shift lever should only be used when the engine is idling.
Steering
Turning the steering pivots the jet pump nozzle which control the craft direction. Turning the steering clockwise will turn the craft to the right and inversely.
A craft needs some throttle to turn.
Practice in a safe area applying the throttle and turning away from an imaginary object. This is a good collision avoidance practice.
Low-Speed Steering Control
System
Whenever the throttle lever is in IDLE position AND the steering wheel is approaching the end of its rotation, the engine speed will be slightly accelerated to increase the jet pump thrust.
This helps steering control for lowspeed navigation or when approaching/leaving a dock. For docking tips, refer to Stopping/Docking section below.
WARNING
Become fully familiar with this feature during your first ride and before carrying passengers.
Boarding from a Dock
As with any craft, boarding should be done carefully and engine should not be running.
When boarding from a dock, slowly place one foot on the craft deck nearest to the dock and then move the other foot inside the craft. Push the craft away from the dock.

If repairs are needed to the body or to the hull contact your dealer. For paint touch up to mechanical parts use Bombardier spray paint. For minor gelcoat repairs, a Bombardier repair kit is available. Replace damaged labels/ decals.
Clean the bilge with hot water and detergent or with bilge cleaner. Rinse thoroughly. Unscrew drain plug(s) and lift front end of craft to completely drain bilge.
Battery
Contact your authorized Sea-Doo dealer.
Anticorrosion Treatment
Wipe off any residual water in the engine compartment.
Lubricate the throttle cable with BOM-
BARDIER LUBE lubricant or equivalent.
Finalizing Storage Preparation
Apply a non abrasive wax to body.
The engine cover should be left partially opened during storage (detach the gas shocks from the cover to prevent full opening). Remove storage tray.
Place it on deck. This will avoid engine compartment condensation and possible corrosion.
If the craft is to be stored outside, cover it with a vented opaque tarpaulin to prevent sun rays and grime from affecting the plastic components, craft finish as well as preventing dust accumulation.
CAUTION: Never leave the craft stored in direct sunlight. UV radiation will dull finishes. The craft must never be left in water for storage. Make sure to turn off main battery cut-off switch.
For the storage period, it is necessary to lift the bow up and safely block in this position so drainage can take place. Ensure the drain plug is unscrewed.
