!
DANGER
During and after operation, engine parts
could be hot enough to cause burns. Do not

Electric parts
!
DANGER
Do not touch any electrical parts while

Engine shut-off switch and cord
!
DANGER
The purpose of a lanyard stop switch is to
stop the engine when the operator moves far
enough away from the operator’s position to
activate the switch.
Attach the engine shut-off cord so that the
engine stops if the operator falls overboard
or leaves the helm.
When activating the engine shut-off switch
the engine will stop immediately, but the
boat will continue to coast for some distance
depending on velocity and degree of any turn
at shut down.
Safety and operating information that is
practiced, along with good common sense,
can help prevent personal injury and product
damage.
