5. Actions in emergency
5.1 Impact damage
If the outboard motor hits an object in the water, follow the procedure below.
1. Stop the engine immediately.
2. Inspect the control system and all components for damage.
3. Whether damage is found or not, return to the nearest harbor slowly and carefully.
4. Have a PARSUN dealer inspect the outboard motor before operating it again.
5.2 Starter will not operate
If the starter mechanism does not operate, the engine can be started with an emergency starter rope.
WARNING:
Use this procedure only in an emergency and only to return to port for repairs.
When the emergency starter rope is used to start the engine, the start-in-gear protection device
does not operate. Make sure the remote control lever is in neutral.
Be sure no one is standing behind you when pulling the starter rope. It could whip behind you
and injure someone.
Do not install the starter mechanism or top cowling after engine is running. Keep loose clothing
and other objects away when starting the engine. Do not touch the flywheel or other moving
parts when the engine is running.
Do not touch the ignition coil, spark plug wire, spark plug cap, or other electrical components
when starting or operating the motor.
