maining moisture in the engine compart-

(4) Securely install the stern drain plugs by
tightening them until they stop. NOTICE:
Before installing the stern drain plugs,
clean the drain plug threads and the
O-rings on the plugs to remove any
foreign materials, such as dirt or sand.
Otherwise, the stern drain plugs could
be damaged, allowing water to enter
the engine compartment. Check the
O-rings on the stern drain plugs and
make sure that the plugs are tightened
securely before launching the water-
craft. Otherwise, water may flood the
engine compartment and cause the
watercraft to submerge.

Draining the bilge water on water
A small quantity of bilge water will remain in
the engine compartment even after the bilge
water is drained on water. To completely
drain the bilge water, remove the watercraft
from the water and drain the bilge water on
land.
Jet vacuum bilge draining system
While the watercraft is operating, bilge water
in the engine compartment is drawn in by the
vacuum that is generated in the jet pump and
discharged from the watercraft through the
jet thrust nozzle.
To drain the bilge water on water:
Operate the watercraft as straight as possible
and above planing speed for at least 2 min-
utes. NOTICE: Do not run the engine at full
throttle for at least 1 minute after the en-
gine has been restarted. Bilge water in the
engine compartment can splash into the
engine, which can result in severe dam-
age.
