WARNING
If the operator falls out of the boat, stop the engine immediately to reduce the
possibility of serious injury or death from being struck by the boat. Always
properly connect the operator to the stop switch using a lanyard.
!
WARNING
Avoid serious injury or death from deceleration forces resulting from
accidental or unintended stop switch activation. The boat operator should
never leave the operator's station without first disconnecting the stop switch
lanyard from the operator.
Accidental or unintended activation of the switch during normal operation is
also a possibility. This could cause any, or all, of the following potentially
hazardous situations:
• Occupants could be thrown forward due to unexpected loss of forward
motion ‑ a particular concern for passengers in the front of the boat who
could be ejected over the bow and possibly struck by the gearcase or
propeller.
• Loss of power and directional control in heavy seas, strong current, or
high winds.
• Loss of control when docking.
KEEP THE LANYARD STOP SWITCH AND LANYARD CORD IN GOOD
OPERATING CONDITION
Before each use, check to ensure the lanyard stop switch works properly. Start
the engine and stop it by pulling the lanyard cord. If the engine does not stop,
have the switch repaired before operating the boat.
Before each use, visually inspect the lanyard cord to ensure it is in good
working condition and that there are no breaks, cuts, or wear to the cord.
Check that the clips on the ends of the cord are in good condition. Replace any
damaged or worn lanyard cords.
Protecting People in the Water
WHILE BOAT IS IN OPERATION
People in the water cannot take quick action to avoid a boat heading in their
direction.
