Knowing the controls and indicators on your boat is essential for safe and
proper operation. The controls and indicators shown in this section may be
optional or slightly different than those on your boat.
SHIFT/THROTTLE CONTROLS
Improperly maintained controls are hazardous and may cause
sudden loss of control. Make sure all shift/throttle hardware
and cables are regularly inspected and maintained. Improper
maintenance may result in a loss of control, resulting in seri-
ous injury or death.
The shift/throttle control on your boat differs from model to model and may
depend on the engine used. The following shift/throttle controls are typical
of the operation of most controls used. Be sure to consult the engine or
control manual for specific operational differences.
Never shift too quickly from forward to reverse. Stay in neutral,
or idle position until the boat has lost most of its headway
before completing the shift to reverse or engine damage may
occur.
NOTICE
All shift/throttle controls are equipped with a safety switch for
“start in neutral only” operation. Be sure the control is in neu-
tral before attempting to start the engine.
