OPERATION
CRUISING
With the gearshift lever in the for-
ward position F, turn the throttle grip
toward FAST to increase speed.
For normal cruising, open the throttle
about 3/4.
To hold the throttle at a steady set-
ting, turn the throttle friction knob
clockwise. To free the throttle grip
for manual speed control, turn the
friction knob counterclockwise.
This outboard motor is provided with
an overrev limiter in order to pre-
vent a breakdown due to excessive
engine speed. If for example, the
outboard motor is tilted excessively,
or ventilation occurs during a sharp
turn, the engine may overrev, acti-
vating the overrev limiter, causing
engine speed to become unstable.
If the engine speed becomes un-
stable when the outboard motor is
run with the grip near the “fullyopen”
position, return the grip to the “low
speed”side until the speed becomes
stable.
For best performance, passengers
and equipment should be distrib-
uted evenly to balance the boat.
