Single Lever Controls

Single lever controls operate as both a gear shifter and a throttle for a

select engine. The lever is detented in the NEUTRAL position for starting.

Shifting is accomplished by moving the lever into the first 15° of travel;

push the lever for FORWARD, and pull the lever back for REVERSE. By

advancing the lever beyond 15°, you move from the shifting range to the

throttle range. DO NOT attempt to shift without the engine running. For

engine warm-up, a separate lever or button on the control is used for

throttle advance while the transmission remains in NEUTRAL.

A. NEUTRAL Position - Safety switch will allow

starting in this position only.

B. FORWARD Position - Press release button

under handle to allow shifting to FORWARD (or

REVERSE) position.

C. REVERSE Position - Do not shift quickly from

FORWARD to REVERSE.

D. THROTTLE Position - Pushing in forward or

pulling in REVERSE increases engine speed.

DO NOT attempt to shift without the engine running. For engine warm-up,

a separate lever on the control is used for throttle advance when in

NEUTRAL.

Dual lever controls have individual levers for

transmission shift and engine throttle.

A. Shift Lever - Neutral is in center detent

position; push for forward, pull for reverse.

B. Throttle Lever - Full throttle is all the way up,

idle is all the way down.

For engine warm-up, the shift levers are

positioned in neutral and the throttle levers are

advanced as needed.

SWITCHES

Each electrical circuit on your boat is equipped with a control switch. Some

switches may have an LED indicator for easy ON/OFF identification. Most

switches will have a fuse holder, or circuit breaker adjacent to the switch.
