Shifter/Throttle
A single-lever control with neutral lockout button and safety collar
operates as both a gear shifter and a throttle control. When the
throttle lever is vertical, it is locked in the NEUTRAL position for
safety. Be sure the control is in NEUTRAL before attempting to
start the engine. Lifting the safety collar and moving the throttle
lever forward will engage FORWARD gear in the transmission and
increase the engine RPM. Moving the throttle lever backward will
engage REVERSE gear in the transmission and also increase the
engine RPM.

Sport
Your Correct Craft boat is equipped with a
Shifter/Throttle Control Handle which features a start-in-
gear protection to prevent the boat from moving when
started. Never replace the control with a control that
does not have this feature.
!
WARNING
DO NOT shift too quickly from FORWARD to
REVERSE. Stay in NEUTRAL, or idle position until the
boat has lost most of its headway before completing the
shift to REVERSE or engine/transmission damage may
occur.
CAUTION
