Controls
Controls and engine systems vary greatly from one engine manufacturer to another. Please read your engine
owner’s manual carefully.
Throttle and Shift Controls for Twin Engines
Ignition – Binnacle, Forward, Neutral and Reverse Gear Operation
The binnacle is located at the console forward of the helm seat. To ensure that
the binnacle is working properly, shift the binnacle forward to put the engine in
forward gear. Make sure the engine shifts smoothly into idle with no grinding of
the gears. Bring the binnacle back into neutral and repeat the same process
while going into reverse. Again, ensure that there are no gears grinding. It is
important to check the binnacle at wide-open throttle (WOT) to ensure the
binnacle is not stiff and operates smoothly while going into the WOT position.
Actual binnacle will vary depending upon the engine package that was selected.
Key Switch Alarm
The key switch alarm is located in the binnacle and sounds when the ignition key is turned on. The key switch
alarm is actually a warning alarm that will go off in the unlikely event that an overheating problem occurs with the
engine. To check the key switch alarm, turn the ignition key to the right but do not start the engine. The alarm will
sound ensuring that the engine warning alarm is working properly. When finished, turn the key off.
Lanyard Stop Switch
To ensure the lanyard stop switch (also called the emergency stop feature) on the engine works properly, first turn
on the ignition key and start up the engine. While the engine is running, locate the lanyard stop switch. The
lanyard stop switch is installed in close proximity to the binnacle or the ignition. While the engine is running in the
neutral position, pull the lanyard stop switch downward until the plastic element at the end of the lanyard pulls the
stop switch pin into the off position. This process will automatically stop the engine and will ensure that the
emergency lanyard stop switch is working properly.
Note: If your engine package was
not factory installed
, some components that are normally
standard installations may not be included.
Shift / Throttle / Trim
Your Pro-Line can be ordered with different shift/throttle systems based upon motor type. Refer to the owner's
packet to find the manual pertaining to your particular installation. Each motor has an individual tilt/trim switch
located on the port throttle lever. Separate shift and throttle controls are available for each outboard motor.
