has OFF - ON and momentary START positions.
Starting procedure
Make sure the engine is down with the shift lever in
the neutral position and your hand on the control
lever. Turn the ignition key to the ON position to
activate the fuel pump and ignition system. Wait
5 seconds for the fuel pump to pressurize the sys-
tem, then turn the key to the start position. When
the engine starts, release the key and the switch
will automatically go to the run position. Stop
the engine by turning the key to the OFF position.
The engine ignition circuits are protected by fuses
or circuit breakers located on each engine.

The switch panels are equipped with push button
switches that are labeled for the accessories they
control. An LED light built into most switches indi-
