WARNING
EWM00121
●
Attach the engine shut-off cord to a se-
cure place on your clothing, or your
arm or leg while operating.
●
Do not attach the cord to clothing that
could tear loose. Do not route the cord
where it could become entangled, pre-
venting it from functioning.
● Avoid accidentally pulling the cord dur-
ing normal operation. Loss of engine
power means the loss of most steering
control. Also, without engine power,
the boat could slow rapidly. This could
cause people and objects in the boat to
be thrown forward.
3. Open the throttle slightly without shifting
using the neutral throttle lever. You may
need to change the throttle opening
slightly depending on engine tempera-
ture. After the engine starts, return the
throttle to the original position.
NOTE:
● As a starting point, lift the lever just until
you feel resistance, then lift slightly more.
●
The neutral throttle lever can only be used
when the remote control lever is in neutral.
4. Pull out / turn the choke knob fully. After
the engine starts, replace / return the
knob to the home position.
