Refer to Your Owner’s Manual

The owner’s manual that came with your Sea-Doo PWC will have all the information you need to maintain your given model. It will have details about the controls and components to service, instructions on pre-and post-operation checks, and any special procedures you’ll need to follow when maintaining your PWC.

Follow a Proper Maintenance Schedule

Although the specific maintenance routine can vary, a few standard procedures to follow can include:

Performing the first service after 50 hours of operation or between 6 and 12 months.

Changing oil and filter after 100 hours of operation or 1-year.

Replacing coolant after 500 hours of operation or 3-years.

Winterizing before the off-season.

De-winterizing during the spring season.

Clean and Protect Your Model

Another essential aspect of maintaining a PWC is cleaning it every so often. Ideally, you’ll want to clean it after every ride and prevent grime and dirt from sitting on it for too long. You’ll want to cleanse it more carefully after a saltwater ride to remove any corrosive salt water which can cause damage to the engine, pump, and hull.

In addition, you’ll want to polish the hull to make it shiny and appear new.

We hope these tips help you maintain your Sea-Doo watercraft like a pro. If you need more advice or help to upgrade your model to the latest one, visit S&N MotorSports. Our dealership is in Port Charlotte, FL, and we proudly serve Fort Myers, so swing by today!
