After Riding
After riding your board in salt water, it is always important to make sure that you wash your board down correctly. Right now I am going to show you how to do that. First thing you need to do is getting a hose with some fresh water. Make sure you get all the salt off the board and out of the engine bay. So I am just going to hose it down, also a little bit into the jet. Once I have done this I want to open up my engine compartment. Next I am going to clean my engine bay, I am going to get everything wet accept into the carburetor hole. But I want to get the rest of the board wet to make sure all the salt water is gone. All the electronics in this board are waterproof. Just ensure that your battery connection is sealed. Once I have done this I am going to tip the board upright and drain all the water out of the engine bay. Once you have drained all the water out of the engine compartment, it is important to start the board once again in the vertical position. To make sure all water is out of the exhaust and out of the engine. The next thing you need to do is give the engine a spray with WD40. The areas you want to focus on are the bearings and the screws, starter engine, front bearing, crankshaft and back bearing.
After this, give the hole engine bay a general spray down with WD40. If the board is going to be left more than 7days without riding, its important to put some WD40 into the engine. First you need to start the board and while the board is running you need to spray some WD40 over the carburetor. This insures that there is WD40 inside the engine. If you do not clean and maintain your board correctly you will void your warranty.
