SUDDEN MOVEMENT HAZARD
This control lever governs both throttle and shifting functions. The boat may start to move

forward and aft. Cautiously shift to the IDLE FORWARD position then quickly back to
NEUTRAL position. Observe whether the boat moves as you expect.
Before starting the engine, make sure (1) the raw water intake seacock over the IPS drive
flange is in the OPEN position (2) the raw water strainer is clean (3) the engine has
sufficient oil and coolant (4) transmission fluid is at the proper level (5) there are no
restrictions to the air intake grills (6) the fuel valves over the tanks are OPEN (8) the
HOUSE and BOTH ENGINE battery banks are turned ON (9) the throttle is in the neutral
position (9) no one is in the water near the boat and (10) all machinery space hatches are
closed.
