5. STARTING THE ENGINE
Choke/Fast idle lever
The choke/fast idle lever provides two functions:
1. Electric choke solenoid activation for easy engine start up.
2. Engine fast idle.
The choke/fast idle lever will not move unless the remote control lever is in the
N (neutral) position. Conversely, the remote control lever will not move unless
the choke/fast idle lever in the lowest position.
Lift and hold the choke/fast idle lever up fully, this will provide a rich fuel mixture
and the correct fast idle. Do not run the engine while holding the lever in the
choke position.
Gradually lower the choke/fast idle lever to the lowest position to decrease the
choke and fast idle.
