IMPORTANT, jet boats will not steer without power to the jet. A jet drive propelled boat has the ability to brake quickly unlike
boats using a propeller that must contend with gears. At no-wake and low speeds the jet driven boat maybe halted by pulling the
control into reverse. Shifting into reverse at planing or high speed, can result in serious injury, death or boat damage.
PLEASE NOTE, this jet is equipped reverse sense steering, which means that your boat will operate different than an automobile
when in reverse. This is easily overcome by steering in the direction you want the bow to go when in reverse, a little practice in a
safe area is recommended.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

1. Lubrication. Thrust bearing; inspect regularly, at least every thirty hours of operation or if the boat sits for more than 2
months. Grease the thrust bearing before you take it out. Lubricate the thrust bearing using VALVOLINE SYNTHETIC #
985, or the equivalent. Grease must be EXTREME PRESSURE, HIGH TEMPERATURE, and must contain MOLY. NOTE: DO NOT
USE WHEEL BEARING GREASE. Bowl bearings, lubricate at the time of winterization, summarization, and once midway through
the boating season. Use the same grease as the thrust bearing. The grease zerk is located at the discharge end of the jet drive.
Access to the grease zerk is through the nozzle, a long extension on your grease gun will be required. NOTE: Be sure to grease the
bearing before your first outing in the spring. Most thrust bearing failures occur then.
2. Reverse Components. The reverse bucket should be inspected every thirty hours for proper function. The reverse
bucket should not have any play when the cable is under tension. The cable attaches to the reverse bucket with a pivot
pin. Make sure this attachment is secure. Also make sure that the reverse cable is secure where it passes through the
bracket. Adjustments to the reverse bucket position can be made by tightening the bulkhead fasteners at the bracket
3. Steering. You should check all steering cable connections, each trip for safety. These include the transom housing
steering nut, the tiller arm-to steering tube connection, the tiller shaft set screw and the lower nozzle pin cap screw
4. Hand Hole Cover. Check the hand hole cover for tightness periodically.
5. Lack of Performance. If the pump over revs when trying to get on plane, it is probably due to a stick, leaf or something
else in the impeller eye. Remove any foreign material from the impeller. REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY BEFORE
PLACING YOUR HAND INSIDE THE JET DRIVE.
PRECAUTIONS AGAINST CORROSION
1. Salt water operation. The SD203 is designed for a trailer boats and is not intended for boats that are moored in salt or brackish
water. It can be used in salt water but must be flushed with fresh water after daily use. It is recommended that your SD203 be dis-
assembled down to the impeller and remove all signs of corrosion and coat all mating parts with an anti-corrosion compound such
as LANOCOTE. Also steering parts need to be cleaned and coated.
SAFETY
1. Retrieving Skiers. We recommend shutting off the engine when retrieving downed skiers.
2. Ski Ropes. Ski ropes should be avoided if possible to insure that they are not sucked into the pump. Should you run
over the rope turn the engine off immediately. Shut off the engine while retrieving the rope. There is a certain amount of
danger in retrieving the rope with the engine running, i.e. should the line be sucked up and a person become entangled it
could be possible for them to be drawn under water and drowned. REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY BEFORE PLACING
YOUR HAND INSIDE THE JET DRIVE.
3. Shallow Water Operation. When the boat is operated in shallow, rocky water, ingestion of small rocks can cause damage
to internal parts. No system can keep all the debris and rocks and allow enough water through to operate properly.
So, remember to be careful in rocky water.
4. Braking At Speed. Be sure to use the braking action conservatively because the effect is much the same as an emergency
stop in an automobile.
5. Engine Cooling. Do not operate the engine out of the water as severe damage to the engine and jet drive could result.
