Troubleshooting
If you have any trouble with your watercraft, use this section to check for the possible cause.
If you cannot find the cause, or if the procedure for replacement or repair is not described in
this owner’s/operator’s manual, have a Yamaha dealer perform the necessary service.

CAUTION:
ECJ00660
Place a suitable clean cloth or carpeting
underneath the watercraft to protect it
from abrasions and scratches.
Always turn the watercraft over onto its
port (left) side.
When turning the watercraft on its side,
support the bow so that the handlebars
are not bent or damaged.
(2) Remove any weeds or debris from
around the drive shaft, impeller, jet pump
housing, and jet thrust nozzle.
If debris is difficult to remove, consult a
Yamaha dealer.
CAUTION:
ECJ00670
Always avoid operating your watercraft in
areas where weed growth is thick. If travel-
ing in weeded areas is unavoidable, oper-
ate the engine alternately at partial throttle
and full throttle. Weeds tend to accumu-
late more at a steady speed and at trolling
speed. If weeds clog the jet intake or im-
peller area and cause cavitation, follow the
cleaning procedure above.
EJU34640Jumping the battery
If the watercraft battery has run down, the en-
gine can be started using a 12-volt booster
battery and jumper cables.
WARNING
EWJ00790
Battery electrolyte is poisonous and dan-
gerous, causing severe burns, etc. Elec-
trolyte contains sulfuric acid. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes, or clothing.
Antidotes
External: Flush with water.
Internal: Drink large quantities of water or
milk. Follow with milk of magnesia, beatenegg, or vegetable oil. Call a physician im-
mediately.
Eyes: Flush with water for 15 minutes and
get prompt medical attention.
Batteries produce explosive gases. Keep
sparks, flames, cigarettes, etc., well away.
If using or charging the battery in an en-
closed space, make sure that it is well ven-
tilated. Always shield your eyes when
working near batteries.
KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
EJU34650Connecting the jumper cables
(1) Connect the positive (+) jumper cable to
the positive (+) battery terminals of both
batteries.
(2) Connect one end of the negative (–)
jumper cable to the negative (–) battery
terminal of the booster battery.
(3) Connect the other end of the negative (–)
jumper cable to an unpainted bolt on the
cylinder head.
CAUTION:
ECJ00680
Do not connect the end of the negative (–)
jumper cable to the negative (–) battery
terminal of the watercraft battery! Make
sure that all connections are secure and
correct before attempting to start the en-
1Positive (+) jumper cable

gine. Any wrong connection could dam-
age the electrical system.
(4) Start the engine, and then disconnect the
jumper cables by reversing the steps
above.
CAUTION:
ECJ00690
Never push the start switch while the en-
gine is running.
Do not operate the start switch for more
than 5 seconds, otherwise the battery
will be discharged and the engine will
not start. Also, the starter motor could
be damaged. If the engine does not start
in 5 seconds, release the start switch,
wait 15 seconds, and then try again.
EJU34670Replacing the fuse
The fuse is located in the electrical box.
To replace the fuse:
(1) Remove the cap, and then pull out the
red lead to pull out the fuse holder from
the electrical box.
(2) Open the fuse holder and replace the
fuse with one of the correct amperage.
WARNING
EWJ00800
Do not use fuses of higher amperage than
recommended. Substitution with a fuse
that has an improper rating can cause ex-
tensive electrical system damage and pos-
sible fire.
EJU34700Towing the watercraft
If the watercraft becomes inoperative in the
water, it can be towed to shore.
If the watercraft must be towed in an emer-
gency using a towline, the operator should
ride the watercraft, holding onto the handle-
bars and supporting his or her body weight on
the riding tray. This will help keep the bow of
the watercraft out of the water.
CAUTION:
ECJ00710
Tow the watercraft at 5 mph (8 km/h) or
less, otherwise water could enter the en-
gine through the exhaust passages or
through the air intake and flood the en-
gine compartment if it is towed too fast.
Tow the watercraft using the bow rope
hole only.
