MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Post Operation Maintenance
Anti-Corrosion Treatment
Spray all the m etal components in the engine compartment with a
lubricating type rust inhibitor. We recommend T9 metal protectant.
Apply dielectric grease on battery terminals and connections.
NOTE: Never leave shop cloths or tools in t he engine compartment or
bilge.
General Maintenance
Refer to page 103 for part numbers of Polaris-recommended products.
Replace pop-off valve, spring, and seals every 100 hours only (not
every 6 months).
Replace water separator filter element and o-ring every 100 hours only
(not every 6 months).
Replace inlet and outlet hoses and clamps every 100 hours only.
After washing the engine compartment of the watercraft, protect the
metal components with a T9 Metal Protectant or another
non-flammable metal protectant. Do not use flammable sprays or
protectants in the engine compartment. Do not use petroleum based
protectants or lubricants in the engine compartment, as most are
flammable and may also deteriorate rubber components.
Periodic Maintenance Schedule
NOTE: Maintenance intervals are based upon average operating
conditions. Watercraft operated in saltwater require daily corrosion
protection and engine flushing, and more frequent maintenance and
lubrication.
Fogging kits should be added to all P olaris watercraft. The engine
should be fogged if the watercraft will not be used for more than 48
hours.
