NOTE:
• When the engine stops, the clutch moves to
the neutral position irrespective of the posi-
tion of the remote control lever.
• The clutch cannot be changed over either to
Forward or Reverse by operating the remote
control lever while the engine stops.
• If gear shifting is attempted while the engine
speed is high, the buzzer sounds twice and
the shift position indicator light “N” displayed
on the multi-function gauge, blinks. If this sys-
tem activates, move the shift lever in to the
full closed position.

NOTE:
Type B remote control box
The type B remote control box has a lock mech-

ing.

handle forward to approximate position A, as
shown in the illustration.
To shift into “REVERSE”, move the control han-
dle rearward to approximate position B, as

A detent or notch is present on all Suzuki con-
trol boxes to provide a “feel” for positions A, B,
and neutral. Always shift quickly and firmly from
neutral to position A or B to prevent abnormal
wear on the gear and clutch engagement sur-
faces.
Speed control
To increase speed after you have shifted into
gear, continue moving the control handle for-
ward or rearward.

WARNING
Since the same handle is used for shifting and
speed control it is possible to move the han-
dle past the detent and engage the throttle.
This can cause the boat to move suddenly
resulting in personal injury or property dam-
age.
You must be careful not to move the control
handle too far forward or rearward when shift-
ing.
