1. Make sure the existing kill switch wires are not in contact after
you have cut and stripped the two wires.
2. Make sure your throttle or gear handle is in neutral position. You
are going to start the engine to check which principle is used by
your engine manufacturer.
3. Turn the engine ignition switch to ON as you would normally do
when starting the engine.
• If you have a pull cord, be sure to check if you can stop the
engine by pressing a STOP BUTTON on your engine. If you
do not have a STOP BUTTON on your engine:
• In the event that the engine starts when the existing kill
switch wires are not in conductive contact, and you have
pulled the pull cord to perform normal engine start, you
can stop the engine by reconnecting the wires. Simply
by leading them together on the stripped end of both
wires, where the cable metal is conductive.
WARNING – PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK: Be sure not to
touch the conducting surface on the wires as these may
conduct electricity!
4. Be sure to perform normal starting procedure when testing, as
described above in point 3.
