7) Grease the areas of the Sport Boat
specified in “Grease Points” in the
Adjustment and Maintenance sec-
tion.
BATTERY
1) If the boat will be out of use, the bat-
tery switch 1 in the battery com-
partment can be switched to the Off
position to prevent accidental drain-
ing of the battery.
With the battery switch in the Off
position, the bilge pump will not
work, even if the bilge pump switch
is in the On position. The bilge could
fill with water.
2) When the Sport Boat is not to be
used for a month or more, remove
the battery and store it in a cool,
dark place. Clean the battery’s cas-
ing and terminals using a mixture of
baking soda and water (one tbsp. of
baking soda to one cup of water).
apply dielectric grease or petroleum
jelly to the battery terminals and to
all exposed connectors.
3) If the battery will be stored for a
longer period, check the specific
gravity of the fluid at least once a
month and recharge the battery if it
gets too low.
MAINTENANCE & CARE 4
4) Turn off the water supply, then drain
residual water from the exhaust sys-
tem by alternately pushing the throt-
tle lever up to half throttle and back
for 10 to 15 seconds. Shut off
engine.
Never have the water on when the
engine is not running. The water
could flow back through the muffler
into the crankcase causing severe
engine damage. Do not run the engine
for more than 15 seconds after the
water supply has been turned off to
avoid engine overheating.
5) After stopping the engine, remove
the garden hose adapter.
6) Replace the cap securely.
7) Repeat the flushing procedure for
the other engine.
LUBRICATION
Do not spray flammable rust
inhibitor on engine surfaces while
the engines are hot. The sprayed
substance or propellants could
catch fire.
1) Open the hood (see page 2-16).
2) Remove the air filter case cover
screws 1, slide the locks 2 to
open, and then remove the case
cover.
3) Remove the air filter element.
4) Spray a rust inhibitor such as
Yamaha Store-Rite Fogging Oil into
each intake opening 3 for 3 sec-
onds.
5) Install the air filter element and air
filter case cover.
6) Start the engine in a well-ventilated
area and let it run at idle for 15 sec-
onds.
Do not run the engine for more than
15 seconds. The engine could over-
heat.
