Safety while working
Safety while working
To prevent an accident or injury and to pro-
vide quality service, observe the following
safety procedures.
Rotating part
* Hands, feet, hair, jewelry, clothing, personal
flotation device straps, and so on, can
become entangled with internal rotating
parts of the engine or jet pump unit, result-
ing in serious injury or death.
* Keep hands, feet, hair, jewelry, clothing,
personal flotation device straps, and so on,
away from any exposed moving parts when
operating the engine with the seat
removed.
* Keep away from intake grate while engine
is on. Items suchas hair, clothing, or per-
sonal flotation device straps can become
entangled in moving parts resulting in
severe injury.
Hot part
During and after operation, engine parts are
hot enough to cause burns. Do not touch any
parts in the engine compartment until the
engine has cooled.
Electric shock
Do not touch any electrical parts while start-
ing or operating the engine. Otherwise, shock
or electrocution could result.
Impeller
Do not hold the impeller with your hands
when loosening or tightening the impeller.

Handling of gasoline
* Gasoline is highly flammable. Keep gaso-
line and all flammable products away from
heat, sparks, and open flames.
* Gasoline is poisonous and can cause injury
or death. Handle gasoline with care. Never
siphon gasoline by mouth. If you swallow
some gasoline, inhale a lot of gasoline
vapor, or get some gasoline in your eyes,
see your doctor immediately. If gasoline
spills on your skin, wash with soap and
water. If gasoline spills on your clothing,
change your clothes.
Safety while working
Ventilation
¢ Gasoline vapor and exhaust gas are
heavier than air and extremely poisonous. If
gasoline vapor or exhaust gas is inhaled in
large quantities, it may cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a short time.
¢ When test running an engine indoors (for
example, in a water tank) make sure to do
so where adequate ventilation can be main-
tained.

Self-protection
¢ Protect your eyes by wearing safety
1-2
Working with crane
* When moving the watercraft, or when lifting
the engine during removal or installation,
make sure to use a crane with a lifting
capacity that is equal to or more than the
weight of the watercraft or engine respec-
tively.
* When lifting the watercraft, use the water-
craft lift harness and make sure that the
watercraft is in a stable position when mov-
ing it.
¢ Use the wire ropes of adequate strength,
and lift up the engine unit using the three
point suspension.
* If the engine unit does not have three or
more points to be suspended, support it
using additional ropes or the like so that the
engine unit can be lifted and carried in a
stable manner.
Safety while working
Handling of heat gun
* Improper handling of a heat gun may result
in burns. For information on the proper han-
dling of the heat gun, see the operation
manual issued by the manufacturer.
* When using a heat gun, keep it away from
the gasoline and oil, to prevent a fire.
* Components become hot enough to cause
burns. Do not touch any hot components
directly.
Part, lubricant, and sealant
Use only genuine Yamaha parts, lubricants,
and sealants, or those recommended by
Yamaha, when servicing or repairing the
watercraft.
1-3
Handling of sealant
¢ Wear protective gloves to protect your skin,
when using the sealants.
* See the material safety data sheet issued
by the manufacturer. Some of the sealants
may be harmful to human health.
Special service tool
Use the recommended special service tools
to work safely, and to protect parts from dam-
age.
Tightening torque
Follow the tightening torque specifications
provided throughout the manual. When tight-
ening nuts, bolts, and screws, tighten the
large sizes first, and tighten fasteners starting
in the center and moving outward.
Safety while working
Non-reusable part
Always use new gaskets, seals, O-rings, cot-
ter pins, and so on, when installing or assem-
bling parts.
Disassembly and assembly
« Use compressed air to remove dust and dirt
during disassembly.
¢ Apply engine oil to the contact surfaces of
moving parts before assembly.
se ((ars
¢ Install bearings so that the bearing identifi-
cation mark is facing in the direction indi-
cated in the installation procedure. In
addition, make sure to lubricate the bear-
ings liberally.
¢ Apply a thin coat of water resistant grease
to the lip and periphery of an oil seal before
installation.
* Check that moving parts operate normally
after assembly.
