WARNING
•
TAKE EXTREME CARE.
•
Some forward thrust will be produced when the engine is running
even when in neutral, so make sure there are no obstacles or
people in front or behind you.
•
Before starting the engine, always check the operation of the
throttle lever. It should move smoothly through its full range of
operation.
CONTROLS - SHIFT LEVER
1.
Neutral position.
2.
Forward shift position.
3.
Reverse shift position.
4.
Throttle.
•
Throttle warm up. Push in the button with your left hand while grasping the umbrella and
knob with your right hand and pull the umbrella up towards the knob. While still holding
the button and umbrella, advance the handle forward or rearward to put the control in
warm-up throttle mode. Once in this mode, the button and the umbrella can be released
and throttle can be adjusted by simply moving the control handle away from the neutral
position to increase throttle and towards the neutral position to decrease throttle.
Returning the handle to the neutral position will disengage throttle warm up.
•
Use "Reverse" for slow speed manoeuvring only. It is useful when launching the boat from
a trailer, or when it is necessary to back up out of tight spots where you cannot turn around.
WARNING
•
Make sure there are no obstacles or people behind you before
shifting into reverse.
•
Do not touch the reverse gate whilst it is being shifted. You could
be pinched.
•
Shifting to REVERSE will not slow down or stop the boat from
higher speed. Reverse is for slow speed manoeuvring only.
1.
Make sure the reverse gate of
the jet pump goes down to its
stopper position when the
control shift lever is placed in
REVERSE position.
2.
Also make sure the reverse gate
of the jet pump goes up to its
stopper position when the
control shift lever is placed in
FORWARD position.
