OPERATION
Engine Stop Switch
Push down on the engine stop
switch (A) to stop the engine in an
emergency. This will ground out
the ignition and bring the engine to
a quick stop. To restart the engine,
the switch must be pulled up to
“ON.”
Throttle Safety Switch
Test the throttle safety switch
system daily before operation.
While seated in a normal riding
position, and with the engine
idling, hold the throttle lever pin
stationary by exerting pressure on
the pivot pin in the direction shown
in the illustration (B). Apply a
slight amount of throttle. A
properly functioning switch must
shut down the engine.
The throttle safety switch is designed to stop the engine whenever all
pressure is removed from the throttle lever and the t hrottle cable or
valves do not return to the normal closed position.
