1. Remove the lanyard lock plate from the stop switch and disconnect
the battery cables before inspecting the jet pump intake.
Improperly connecting or disconnecting battery cables can result
in an explosion and cause serious injury or death. When
disconnecting cables, always disconnect the negative (black)
cable first. When reconnecting, always connect the negative
(black) cable last.
2. Carefully check the jet pump intake and remove any weeds, shells
or other debris that may restrict the intake of water.
3. After launching, walk the watercraft into water at least two feet (60
cm) deep and bounce the back of the craft up and down several
times to flush out any sand and debris that may be in the pump.
A clogged intake or the ingestion of sand into the cooling system will
cause engine overheating and result in jet pump or engine damage.
If any obstruction cannot be removed, have an authorized Polaris
dealer service it immediately. Clear the pump of sand after
operating in shallow water or after beaching the watercraft.
