For more information regarding the safe operation and maintenance of the throttle control,
refer to the separate instructions located in the information packet shipped with your boat.
Steering System
It is important that you get the “feel” of your Malibu boat’s steering system. Turn the
wheel from full left to full right, and make sure the rudder is turning accordingly. The
system should operate freely and smoothly.
Notice:
It is normal for your Malibu steering to pull slightly to the right
under normal driving conditions. The boat will pull straight while
skier is under tow.
Emergency Engine Stop Switch
The emergency stop switch attaches to the operator of the
boat and shuts down the engine if the operator is
accidentally forced away from the helm.
The switch consists of an ON/OFF switch and a switch
clip/lanyard clip, which is connected between the stop clip
and the operator. Should the operator move away from the
controls, the clip pulls free, flipping the switch to the OFF
position and stopping the engine. If the engine must be
shut down quickly, a pull on the lanyard cord to release
the clip from the switch will stop the engine.
To reset the switch after activation, reinstall the lanyard clip and flip switch to the UP
position.
Motorbox Cover
The upholstered motorbox reduces engine noise and
provides protection for the passengers on board. To open,
stand on the port side of the box near the observer seat,
grasp the handle near the floor and pull open. The motor
box is equipped with either one or two gas-filled shock
absorbers (depending on model) to provide support for the
compartment when opened.
Running the engine with the motor
box open exposes rotating machinery which can cause injury
to occupants of the boat.
