CONTROLS AND FEATURES
Throttle Friction Adjuster
The throttle friction adjuster adjusts
resistance to throttle grip rotation.
Turn the adjuster clockwise to
increase friction for holding a throttle
setting while cruising.
Turn the adjuster counterclockwise to
decrease friction for easy throttle grip
rotation.
Gearshift Lever
The gearshift lever is used to select F
(forward), N (neutral), or R (reverse)
gears.
The engine can be started with the
gearshift lever in the N (neutral)
position only.
Steering Friction Adjuster
The steering friction adjuster adjusts
steering resistance.
Less friction allows the outboard
motor to turn more easily. More
friction helps to hold a steady course
while cruising or to prevent the
outboard motor from swinging while
trailering the boat.
