CONTROL LEVER
Pushing the fast idle button, turn the
remote control lever forward. Keep
turning the lever forward. The
throttle opens and the engine speed
increases after the lever passed the
shift point.
Note that the gearshift mechanism
does not function when the fast idle
button is pushed once and then
released after the remote control
lever is moved.
The control lever does not operate
unless the neutral release lever is
pulled.
The fast idle lever will not move
unless the remote control lever is in
the NEUTRAL position. Conversely,
the remote control lever will not
move unless the fast idle lever is in
the lowest position.
Lower the fast idle lever to the
lowest position to decrease the fast
idle.
After the engine starts and if the
outside temperature is below 5°C (41
°F), the fast idle lever/fast idle
button can be used to accelerate
engine warm up.
The fast idle lever/fast idle button is
only needed for starting carbureted
outboard models. The BF75D and
BF90D models use programmed fuel
injection so, this lever will not be
needed for starting.
