TELEFLEX MARINE RECOMMENDS THE USE OF AN EMERGENCY SHUT-OFF SWITCH AS AN ADDED SAFETY MEASURE. THE SWITCH IS
DESIGNED SOLELY TO STOP THE BOAT’S ENGINE IN THE EVENT THE OPERATOR IS ACCIDENTLY REMOVED FROM THE CONTROLS.
THE SHUT-OFF SWITCH IS NOT A STANDARD PART OF THIS CONTROL, BUT CAN BE ORDERED FROM MOST MARINE DEALERS AND
DISTRIBUTORS. SEE SECTION 7 FOR SL-3 SWITCH THAT IS SUITABLE TO YOUR ENGINE TYPE.
OBSERVE CAREFULLY THE NOTES, CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS IN THIS MANUAL. THEY ARE TO ALERT INSTALLERS AND OPERATORS

SUBSTITUTE FOR SAFE BOAT HANDLING AND PROPER ACCIDENT PREVENTION MEASURES.
