Outboard Remote Control Models
The remote control connected to your outboard must be equipped with a start in neutral only protection
device. This prevents the engine from starting when the shift is actuated in any position other than neutral.
!
WARNING
Avoid serious injury or death from a sudden unexpected acceleration when starting your engine. The
design of this outboard requires that the remote control used with it must have a built in start in neutral
only protection device.

Remote Steering Notice
The steering link rod that connects the steering cable to the engine must be fastened utilizing self-locking
nuts. These self-locking nuts must never be replaced with common nuts (non-locking) as they will work
loose and vibrate off, freeing the link rod to disengage.
!
WARNING
Disengagement of a steering link rod can result in the boat taking a full, sudden, sharp turn. This
potentially violent action can cause occupants to be thrown overboard exposing them to serious injury
or death.

Lanyard Stop Switch
The purpose of a lanyard stop switch is to turn off the engine when the operator moves far enough away
from the operator's position (as in accidental ejection from the operator's position) to activate the switch.
Tiller handle outboards and some remote control units are equipped with a lanyard stop switch. A lanyard
stop switch can be installed as an accessory - generally on the dashboard or side adjacent to the
operator's position.
