Reverse Throttle: To engage the throttle mechanism in reverse continue to move the lever forward (back or aft) past the detent in a controlled
motion. This motion will begin to increase engine RPM which will cause the boat to move backwards. (See shift function above for Morse Twin S.)
Neutral Throttle: To engage the neutral throttle function on your Yamaha control box depress the neutral lockout button located at the
center of the control lever’s pivot point. While fully depressing the button inward move the control forward or reverse to activate the throttle.
STOPPING / BRAKING
To stop a boat that is moving forward you may reverse the shift mechanism. This change in direction will provide a “braking action,” slowing
the boat.
CONTROL CABLES
If your throttle or shift cables need replacing use the same style and length as the original equipment.
STEERING
Most outboard engines are equipped with an adjustable rudder trim tab. This trim tab should be adjusted to balance the steering at the speed
which you travel most frequently. Variations in speed, boat load or changes in the engine trim will cause the steering to pull in one direction.
If the boat pulls to the left adjust the trim tab to the left and vice-versa.
CAUTION
Failure to fully depress the neutral throttle before moving the control lever
may result in the control lever engaging the gear shift mechanism. Thus
resulting in the propeller being engaged and causing the boat to lunge in
the direction the lever was moved.
CAUTION
Abrupt BRAKING ACTION, with the boat moving too fast, may cause a wake
that can rise above the transom and potentially ood the boat. ALLOW
ENGINE RPM TO DECREASE BEFORE SHIFTING INTO REVERSE.
