ENGINE SHUT-OFF SWITCH
• Alwaysattachtheengineshut-off
cord to your Personal Flotation
Device (PFD) BEFORE starting
the engines. Failure to attach the
cord could result in a runaway
boat if the operator is ejected.
• Donotattachthecordtocloth-
ing that could tear loose. Do
not route the cord in such a way
that it could become entangled,
preventing it from functioning.
• Avoid accidentally pulling the
cord during normal operation.
Once the engines have stopped
you have no steering control
of the boat which could result
in an accident. Also, without
engine power, the boat could
slow rapidly from planing speed.
This could cause people and
objects in the boat to be thrown
forward, which could cause
injury.
The clip on the end of the engine
shut-off cord must be attached to the
engine shut-off switch for the engines
to run. The cord must be attached to a
secure place on the Operator’s Personal
Flotation device (PFD). Should the
operator fall overboard or leave the
helm, the cord will pull out the clip,
stopping ignition to both engines. This
will prevent the boat from running away
under power.
