Outboard Remote Control (If Equipped)
1 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
2 The steering link rod that connects the steering cable to the engine must be
fastened utilizing self-locking nuts (a). 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.
