SAFETY WARNING
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
and
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.
Information in this guide is limited.
It is strongly recommended that you obtain further boating information from the local Coast Guard or
Power Squadron. We also recommend all operators to take a boating safety course. Please check local and federal boating laws applicable to the waterways where you intend to use the craft. Learn the local rules of the road.
The performance of this craft may significantly exceed that of other boats you have operated. Therefore, use of this craft by a novice or inexperienced operator, or an underage or disabled person, is not recommended.
Observe and follow all on-product warning labels.
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 the operator, you are in control and are responsible for the craft’s safe operation.
Always carry the regulatory required safety items on board. Check with local regulations or your dealer.
Make sure that all users of the craft read and are aware of all warnings.
Operation
The operator and passenger(s) should wear a Coast Guard approved PFD, suitable eye and body protection as well as deck shoes or booties.
Store or tie-down any loose articles or necessary boating equipment before operating the craft.
Always perform the pre-operation checks as specified in this guide.
Always keep in mind that directional control is reduced with decreasing speed and lost when engine is off.
To turn the craft, both steering and throttle are necessary. This craft has the capability of turning more sharply than other boats, however, unless in an emergency, do not negotiate sharp, high speed turns. You and your passenger(s) could be thrown from the craft. It should also be remembered that sun, wind, alcohol or drugs, may impair your judgment and reaction time.
4
lmo2000-005a.book Page 5 Friday, November 26, 1999 9:15 AM
While your craft has the capacity of operating at high speeds, it is strongly recommended that high speed operation only be applied when ideal conditions exist and are permitted.
Higher speed operation requires a higher degree of skill and increases the risk of severe injuries.
The forces generated on the body of riders while turning, negotiating waves or wakes, operating in choppy waters, or falling off the watercraft, especially at higher speeds, may cause injury including the possibility of broken legs and other bones. Remain flexible and avoid sharp turns.
Ensure operator all-round visibility is unrestricted. Always keep a constant lookout for other water users or other potential hazards especially when turning. Make sure to keep a safe distance from all other craft, other water users and other objects.
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.
Always respect the safety and comfort of your passenger(s) and person being towed on skis, wakeboards or other water products.
Always have an observer while towing a skier, proceed with only as much speed as required, and follow the observers instructions. Unless absolutely necessary, do not make tight, sharp turns.
5
lmo2000-005a.book Page 6 Friday, November 26, 1999 9:15 AM
Know the waters in which the craft is to be operated. Current, tides, rapids, hidden obstacles, wakes and waves etc., can affect safe operation. It is not advisable to operate the craft in rough or inclement weather.
Wake or wave jumping or riding the surf line can cause severe personal injury and damage the craft. Never attempt to splash others with your craft. You may misjudge the ability of the craft or your own riding skills and strike a boat or person.
In shallow water, proceed with cauti o n a n d a t ve r y l o w sp e e d s.
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. Avoid adding on accessories or equipment which may alter the craft’s configuration or balance.
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.
Due to the close proximity of other racers, It is recommended that an approved personal watercraft helmet be used during racing events only. Read and follow all instructions and warnings provided with the helmet.
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.

lmo2000-005a.book Page 7 Friday, November 26, 1999 9:15 AM
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 case of emergency.

FUEL AND LUBRICATION
Recommended Oil
Use BOMBARDIER-ROTAX Formula
XP-S synthetic injection oil (or equivalent high quality synthetic oil) available from an authorized Sea-Doo dealer.
This fully synthetic oil provides outstanding lubrication and cleanliness, less friction and wear for greater engine performance and durability.
CAUTION: The 947 engine requires the use of BOMBARDIER-ROTAX
Formula XP-S synthetic injection oil
(or the equivalent high quality synthetic oil).
15
lmo2000-005a.book Page 16 Friday, November 26, 1999 9:15 AM
BREAK-IN PERIOD
Engine
Sea-Doo sport boats powered by Rotax engine require, a break-in period before operating the engine at full throttle. We recommend about 10 operating hours.
During this period, maximum throttle should not exceed 3/4 , however, brief full acceleration and speed variations contribute to a good break-in. Continued wide open throttle accelerations, prolonged cruising speeds and overloading the engine is (are) detrimental during the break-in period.
To assure additional protection during the initial break-in period, it is recommended to add 2 liters (1/2 gal) of
BOMBARDIER-ROTAX Formula XP-S synthetic injection oil (or equivalent high quality synthetic oil) in the fuel tank. The oil should be added for the first full fuel tank filling only.
To add injection oil in the fuel tank, proceed as follows:
Fill fuel tank with approximately 50 liters (12 gal) of gasoline; then, add the required quantity of injection oil in the fuel tank.
NOTE: It is important to proceed in this order to allow a proper mixing of the oil in the gasoline. If oil is added first in an empty fuel tank, fuel lines will be filled up with injection oil leading in a no start condition of the engine.
CAUTION: Remove and clean spark plugs after engine break-in.
10-Hour Inspection
It is highly recommended that after the first 10 hours of operation, the sport boat be checked by an authorized dealer. This inspection will also provide the opportunity to discuss any unanswered questions you may have encountered during the first hours of operation.
The 10-hour inspection is at the expense of the sport boat owner.

Refer to the technical data at the end of this supplement for proper impeller shaft reservoir capacity.
Antifreezing Protection
In conjunction with page 71 of the
2000 Challenger/Sportster Operator’s
Guide
. The following procedure should be performed for Rotax 947 engine:
NOTE: The engine should not run during this operation.
Install a hose pincher to engine drain hose.
Disconnect engine water supply hose from cylinder head, as shown in the next photo.
F06E05Z
1
1. Disconnect engine water supply hose
Temporarily install one short piece of hose to engine water inlet fitting.
Insert a funnel into hose. Pour antifreeze mixed with water in the engine until the solution is visible in the water return hose.
Remove temporary hose and reconnect engine water supply hose to engine.
Remove hose pincher.
Most of the antifreeze will drain out when removing hose pincher. Use a container to recover it. Dispose antifreeze as per your local laws and regulations.
NOTE: Although antifreeze will mainly drain out, the antifreeze has flowed to mix with water that was possibly trapped in cooling system cavities and thus preventing freezing problems.
Care should be taken with a Rotax 947 engine since water partially remains inside engine and cannot be totally drained.
NOTE: For pre-season preparation, drain antifreeze from cooling system prior to launching boat in water as explained above.
Pre-Season Preparation
Use the Periodic Inspection chart at the end of this document and refer to the pre-season column.
Since technical skills and special tools are required, some operations should be performed by an authorized Sea-
Doo dealer.
WARNING
Observe all WARNINGS and CAU-
TIONS mentioned throughout this guide which are pertinent to the item being checked. When component conditions seem less than satisfactory, replace with genuine
BOMBARDIER parts or approved equivalents.
NOTE: It is highly recommended that an authorized Sea-Doo dealer perform the annual safety inspection and factory campaigns in addition to the preseason preparation all at the same time.
