2) Remove fuse holder from flywheel cover.
3) Raise flywheel guard from the fittings by
pulling up on the front two fastening tabs.

Turn the flywheel in a clockwise direction
until one of the notches is aligned with the
starter shaft.

dures. Failure to do so may result in
unexpected boat movement.
The engine cover is a machinery guard.
