Engine shut-off cord (lanyard) and clip
The clip must be attached to the engine shut-off switch for
the engine to run. The cord should be attached to a secure
place on the operator’s clothing, or arm or leg. Should the
operator fall overboard or leave the helm, the cord will pull
out the clip, stopping ignition to the engine. This will prevent
the boat from running away under power.
WARNING
EWM01791
Attach the engine shut-off cord to a secure place on
your clothing, or your arm or leg while operating.
Do not attach the cord to clothing that could tear
loose. Do not route the cord where it could become
entangled, preventing it from functioning.
Avoid accidentally pulling the cord during normal op-
eration. 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 ob-
jects in the boat to be thrown forward.
TIP:
The engine cannot be started with the clip removed.
