Basic components
Throttle friction adjuster
A friction device provides adjustable resistance to movement of the throttle grip or the remote control
lever, and can be set according to operator preference.
To increase resistance, turn the adjuster clockwise. To decrease resistance, turn the adjuster
counterclockwise.
1. Throttle friction adjuster
2. Engine stop lanyard switch
WARNING
Do not over tighten the friction adjuster. If there is too much resistance, it could be difcult to
move throttle lever or grip, which could result in an accident.
When constant speed is desired, tighten the adjuster to maintain the desired throttle setting.
Engine stop lanyard switch
The stop switch lock must be attached to the engine stop switch for the engine to run. The hook
should be attached to a secure place on the operators clothing, or arm or leg. Should the operator
fall overboard or leave the helm, the hook will pull out the stop switch lock, stopping ignition to
the engine. This will prevent the boat from running away under power.
WARNING
Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to a secure place on your clothing, or your arm or leg while
operating.
Do not attach the lanyard to clothing that could tear loose. Do not route the lanyard where is could
become entangled, preventing it from functioning.
Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard during normal operation. Loss of engine power means the
loss of most steering control. Also, without engine power, the boat could slow rapidly. This could
cause people and objects in the boat to be thrown forward.
NOTE
The engine cannot be started with the stop switch lock removed.
