WARNING
Operating the engine without engaging the tilt lock lever can cause serious
injury or death. The outboard can tilt upwards when decelerating or
operating in reverse, causing loss of boat control. Always lock the outboard
in its run position before operating.
8. Cold Engine ‑ Advance the fast idle lever or throttle only feature to an
approximate halfway (1/2) setting. After engine start up, immediately
adjust neutral fast idle setting so engine speed drops below 2000 RPM.
Return back to normal idle speed after engine is warmed up.
