Quicksilver 555OP — System & Component Overview and Operaon
Wear the lanyard at all mes when operang the boat. Use
it to stop only in an emergency. DO NOT use it to shut o
the engine during normal operaon
7. Emergency Engine Shutdown Switch
Your boat is equipped with an engine shutdown safety switch. The switch is located at the helm
between the steering wheel and the engine control unit. The ignion shutdown switch incorporates a
shut-o switch and a lanyard. Before operang the boat, one end of the lanyard must be connected to
the shut-o switch while the other end is connected to the operator. If an emergency arises where
the engine must be shut down, pull the lanyard cord to release it from the shut-o switch, which in
turn shuts down the engine. This switch is designed to shut the engine o when the operator of the
boat leaves the control staon, either accidently by falling into the boat, or by being ejected
overboard.
The lanyard should be long enough to prevent inadvertent acvaon. Do not let the lanyard become
entangled.
