 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.
