The shift / throttle control is important to daily operation.
Have your dealer check it regularly for proper adjustment
and lubrication.
NOTICE
Do not use the throttle lever during the starting
sequence. Your electronic engine controls should not
need any throttle movement while starting.
Your engine has a safety feature that allows the engine
to crank only in the neutral position. If during the starting
process your engine will not turn over, make sure that
the shift / throttle control is in the NEUTRAL position and
try again.
