Lubrication

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire or explosion: Never pour or spray gasoline, or any substance other than a rust inhibitor through the hole in the carburetor silencer cover.

CAUTION:

●Make sure to replace the cap securely after fogging the engine, otherwise water could enter the engine and cause damage.

●Do not attempt to run the engine at full throttle or for more than 15 seconds while the watercraft is out of the water, otherwise the engine may overheat and/or seize.

1.Open the silencer cap 1 on the silencer.

2.Start the engine with the watercraft in a well-ventilated area.

3.With the engine running at a fast idle, quickly spray as much rust inhibitor as possible through the hole in the silencer cover. Use Yamaha Stor-Rite Fogging Oil or an equivalent. Keep spraying until the engine stalls (or a maximum of 15 sec- onds).

4.Install the cap securely.

5.Lubricate all cables such as the throttle, choke, and steering cables.

NOTE:

Use a Yamaha Power Cable Luber and Yamaha Lube-Zall to pressure lubricate the cables and purge out any moisture between the inner and outer cables.

6.Lubricate the areas of the watercraft specified under Lubrication points on page 4-16.
