Operation

Avoid accidentally pulling the cord dur-
ing normal operation. Loss of engine
power means the loss of most steering
control. Also, without engine power,
the boat could slow rapidly. This could
cause people and objects in the boat to
be thrown forward.
1. Place the gear shift lever in neutral.
TIP:
The start-in-gear protection device prevents
the engine from starting except when in neu-

2. Attach the engine shut-off cord to a se-
cure place on your clothing, or your arm
or leg. Then install the clip on the other
end of the cord into the engine shut-off
switch.
3. Place the throttle grip in the “
”
(start) position. After the engine starts,
return the throttle to the fully closed po-
sition.
4. Turn the main switch to “
” (start),
and hold it for a maximum of 5 seconds.
5. Immediately after the engine starts, re-
lease the main switch and allow it to re-
turn to “
” (on).
NOTICE:
Never turn
the main switch to “
” (start)
while the engine is running. Do not
keep the starter motor turning for
more than 5 seconds. If the starter
motor is turned continuously for
more than 5 seconds, the battery will
be quickly discharged, thus making it
impossible to start the engine. The
starter can also be damaged. If the
engine will not start after 5 seconds
of cranking, return the main switch to
“
” (on), wait 10 seconds, then
crank the engine again.
