General Information
This Interrupt Switch is to be used solely with
Morse MV3 Side Mounted Controls to stop the
engine of an inboard, I/O or outboard powered
boat instantly in the event an operator is acciden-
tally removed from the controls. The Interrupt
Switch includes a lanyard clip which holds the
plunger of the Switch in position to allow engine
operation. A lanyard extends from the clip and is
connected to the operator. Should the operator
move away from the controls the clip is pulled
free, releasing the plunger and stopping the
engine.
Installation
1.
Before drilling, check behind the panel for
sufficient clearance around wires, pipes,
control cables and other obstructions.
2.
Remove control and drill a 5/8 inch diam
eter hole in the cover from the backside. A
drill point is molded in.
2A. You may use the 5/8 inch diameter hole that
you drilled in the control cover as a pilot hole
and drill a 1-1/8 inch hole in the mounting
panel.
2B. Add the ìWARNINGî label to the bottom
of the MV3 Face Plate. (See Figure 1.)
3.
Insert the Interrupt Switch from behind the
mounting surface, through the MV3
Control.
4.
Tighten the Flanged Nut to 40-50 inch
pounds to secure the Switch. Do not over
tighten.
5.
Check for proper mounting security by
removing the lanyard assembly with a tug
on the cord. Re-tighten nut if the Switch is
loose.
Electrical Connections for I/O or Inboard Use
Only
1.
Disconnect all batteries and any auxiliary
on-board or dockside power supplies.
2.
Locate the purple ignition switch-to-coil wire.
See Diagram A.
BE SURE THIS WIRE GOES DIRECTLY TO
THE COIL AND NOT TO THE INSTRU-
MENT OR ALTERNATOR CIRCUIT.
SELECTING THE INCORRECT WIRE WILL
RESULT IN IMPROPER SWITCH OPERA-
TION WHICH COULD LEAD TO SERIOUS
lNJURY.
3.
Cut the Purple wire, strip the ends and
install two (2) insulated crimp-on 1/4 inch
female disconnect terminals. A crimping tool
designed for insulated terminals MUST be
used.
4.
Attach the female disconnects to each of
the male terminals on the Interrupt Switch.
5.
Recheck all connections. Install Lanyard
with the Fork Clip seated on the Plunger.
