• Emergency Cut-off Switch
There is an emergency cut-off switch for the
protection of you and your passengers. The clip at the end of the cord must
be attached securely to the driver. Check the system by attaching the clip to
the switch, start the boat and then pull the clip off the switch. The engine
should stop. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU OPERATE
THE BOAT IF THIS SYSTEM DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. If it
does not function correctly, contact your Correct Craft dealer to have the
problem corrected.
• Throttle
The throttle control consists of
the throttle lever, a lock out ring and a
neutral button. The neutral button is a
push-button at the bottom of the throttle
lever which allows the throttle to be
advanced without the transmission being
engaged. The throttle lever must be in the
neutral position to start the engine.
The throttle arm has three detent positions.
Note: When in a detent position the throttle arm will resist movement, but can
be moved with sufficient pressure. Neutral detent is straight up. Forward
detent is approximately 30 degrees toward the bow, and reverse detent is
approximately 30 degrees toward the stern. Moving the throttle from neutral
detent to either forward or reverse detent will shift the boat into that gear. The
engine will remain at idle speed. To increase (forward or reverse) engine speed
and therefore boat speed, continue to rotate the throttle arm past the detent.
Note: When shifting out of neutral, it is best to pause in the appropriate detent
before applying additional throttle.
The lockout ring mechanism prevents unintentional shifting into forward or
reverse. To operate the throttle lever, you must lift the lockout ring.
DO NOT
shift quickly from forward into reverse. Stay in the neutral position until
the boat has lost speed before shifting into reverse. Shifting should not be
attempted above 1200 RPM except in emergency situations.
CAUTION: LOADING AND UNLOADING OF PASSENGERS FROM
A DOCK OR FROM THE WATER SHOULD ONLY BE DONE AFTER
THE ENGINE HAS BEEN TURNED OFF.
Boarding Platform Safety
The boarding platform of your boat is a very convenient feature that greatly
enhances the water towed sports experience. There are however, some serious
safety concerns regarding the use of the platform. Correct Craft, Inc. has
placed warning labels at the driver’s position, on the deck at the rear of the
occupant area, and on the transom.
