When there is something abnormal
with the engine, the warning lamp
flashes and/or the buzzer sounds.
If a trouble occurs, deal with it as
mentioned below.
■
ESG (A device preventing over revolution)
ESG is a device to prevent over
revolution of the engine.
If the load to the engine becomes
light for some reason, it runs at a
higher speed than the usual. In such
the case, the buzzer sounds and
the ESG is activated not to ignite the
spark plug, therefore, the engine
speed varies.
Remedy:
Immediately turn the throttle grip or
the control lever to the intermediate
or lower speed and move the boat to
a safe place. Then, shift the control
lever or shift lever to the Neutral(N)
position and stop the engine.
■
Warning against low oil level
If the engine oil has decreased to the
specified quantity or less, the warning
system is activated with flashing of
the warning lamp and the buzzer that
sounds continuative alarms three
times at intervals of 2 minutes.
Remarks:
The warning system against low oil
level is activated regardless of the
shift position of the control lever (shift
lever), namely, if it is set at "N", "F" or
"R" position.
Remedy:
Slow down the engine speed and
move the boat to a safe place. Then
turn off the main switch and replenish
the oil tank with engine oil after the
engine completely stops.
