TRANSPORTATION, STORAGE
AND PRE-SEASON PREPARATION ______________
Transportation
◆
WARNING
Always turn the fuel valve to OFF position when transporting or storing the jet boat.
Tie the jet boat to both bow and stern
(front/rear) eyelets so that it is firmly retained on the trailer. Use additional cables if necessary.
-
CAUTION
Do not route ropes or tie-downs over the seats or tubes as they could produce permanent damage. Wrap ropes or tie-downs with rags or similar protectors where they can touch the jet boat body.
Ensure engine and storage covers are properly latched.
A SEA-DOO cover should protect the jet boat, particularly before driving on dirt roads.
Observe trailering safety precautions.
Storage
It is recommended that the jet boat be serviced by an authorized dealer for storage but the following operations can be performed by you with a minimum of tools.
-
CAUTION
Do not run the engine during the storage period.
Engine Draining
Check engine drain tube. Make sure there is no sand or other particles in it and that it is not obstructed so that water can leave the engine. Clean tube and fitting (on outlet) as necessary.
-
CAUTION
Water in engine drain tube must be free to flow out, otherwise water could be trapped in engine.
Should water freeze in engine, severe damage will occur. Check engine drain tube for obstructions.

Boat Rinsing
Thoroughly rinse the hull, bilge and engine compartment with fresh water.

lmo702a2.bk : lmo702a1.fm5 Page 55 Tuesday, October 7, 1997 2:20 PM
Propulsion System
Lubricant in impeller shaft reservoir should be drained and reservoir cleaned. Refill with 90 mL (3 U.S. oz) of SEA-DOO synthetic polyolester oil
75W90 GL5 type C gear lube. Refer to an authorized dealer for this operation.
-
CAUTION
Use only BOMBARDIER jet pump oil or equivalent synthetic gear oil, otherwise component service life could be reduced. Do not mix oil brands or types.
Lubricate PTO flywheel and seal carrier.
Refer to procedure discussed in
MAINTENANCE.
Fuel System
SEA-DOO fuel stabilizer (or equivalent), can be added in fuel tank to prevent fuel deterioration and carburetor gumming. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for proper use.
-
CAUTION
Fuel stabilizer should be added prior engine lubrication to ensure carburetor protection against varnish deposit.
◆
WARNING
Fuel is flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Always work in a well ventilated area. Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in the vicinity. Always wipe off any fuel spillage from the jet boat. Always turn the fuel valve to OFF position when storing the jet boat.
Cooling System Flushing and
Engine Internal Lubrication
Refer to procedure discussed in POST-
OPERATION CARE.
Battery
Contact your authorized dealer or refer to the appropriate
Shop Manual
for proper storage procedure.
Anticorrosion Treatment
Wipe off any residual water in the engine compartment.
Spray SEA-DOO LUBE lubricant over metallic components in engine compartment.
Additional Recommended
Protection
In cool regions (where freezing point temperature may be encountered), cooling system should be filled with water and antifreeze solution. (50% water, 50% antifreeze).
-
CAUTION
Always use ethylene glycol antifreeze containing corrosion inhibitors specifically recommended for aluminum engines.
' NOTE: The engine does not have to run during this operation.
Three hoses have to be disconnected to allow air to escape and antifreeze solution to completely fill cooling system water jackets.
Install a hose pincher (not supplied) on water injection hose.
Disconnect water inlet hose, drain hose and water outlet hose.

F04E0CZ
TYPICAL
1. Install a hose pincher on water injection hose and CSI hose
2. Disconnect here
Raise all hoses above the highest point of tuned pipe and temporarily tie them together.
Insert a funnel into inlet hose going to the water inlet socket at tuned pipe.
Pour about 2 liters (1/2 gal) of antifreeze solution through the funnel.
Tie up all hoses higher than tuned pipe.
' NOTE: If hoses are not attached higher than tuned pipe, coolant will drain out.
F04E0FY
TYPICAL
1. Hold hoses higher than tuned pipe
2. Water inlet hose
The following steps should be performed to provide the jet boat enhanced protection.
Remove muffler and drain out as much water as possible. Reinstall muffler.
OR : Disconnect one hose from muffler and pour some antifreeze liquid inside muffler. Reconnect hose.
Lubricate the throttle cable with SEA-
DOO LUBE lubricant.
Clean the bilge with hot water and detergent or with bilge cleaner. Rinse thoroughly. Lift front end of jet boat to completely drain bilge. If any repairs are needed to body or to the hull, contact your dealer. For paint touch up to mechanical parts use Bombardier spray paint. For small gelcoat repairs, a Bombardier repair kit is available. Replace damaged labels/decals.

' ment.
NOTE: Bilge cleaning should be done prior to anticorrosion treat-
Wash the body with soap and water solution (only use mild detergent).
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water. Remove marine organisms from the hull.
Apply a nonabrasive wax such as silicone wax.
-
CAUTION
Never clean apparent fiberglass and plastic parts with strong detergent, degreasing agent, paint thinner, acetone, etc.
If the jet boat is to be stored outside, cover it with an opaque tarpaulin to prevent sun rays and grime from affecting the plastic components, jet boat finish as well as preventing dust accumulation.
For storage period, tube should be cleaned and dried.
If possible, store the jet boat with the tube sections 90% inflated. If it is not possible, fold the tube into the hull and tie it loosely into this position.
-
CAUTION
Never leave the jet boat stored in direct sunlight. UV radiation will decrease tube life and dull finish.
The jet boat must never be left in water for storage. Keep away from rodents.
The engine cover should be partially left opened during storage. This will avoid engine compartment condensation and possible corrosion.
' NOTE: If the jet boat is stored outside with engine cover partially opened and without a tarpaulin, unscrew the rear drain plugs in order to avoid water build up in the bilge during rainfall. Tilt the jet boat to the rear so that water can flow out of floorboard.
Pre-Season Preparation
Use the following chart.
Since technical skills and special tools are required, some operations should be performed by an authorized dealer.
◆
WARNING
Observe 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.
