Do not attach the lanyard to clothing that could tear loose. Do not route the lanyard where
it could become entangled, preventing it from functioning.
Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard during normal operation. Loss of engine power
means the loss of steering control. Also, without engine power, the boat could slow rapidly.
This could cause people and objects in the boat to be thrown forwar
d.
NOTE:
The start-in-gear protection device prevents
the engine from starting except when in neutral.
Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to secure
place on your clothing, or your arm or leg. Then
install the lock plate on the other end of the
lanyard into the engine stop switch.
