FEATURES & FUNCTIONS 2
Free Accelerator
This control is equipped with a “Free
Accelerator” button which will allow
engines to be accelerated with the jet
pump gates in the Neutral position.
The boat will start moving as if it
were in Forward or Reverse if engine
speed is increased above idle in
Neutral. Use the Free Accelerator
only if necessary and be prepared
for the possibility of boat move-
ment.
FUEL TANK FILLER CAP
To remove the fuel tank filler cap, turn it
counterclockwise.
Fuel tank filler cap
Be sure to tighten the cap securely
before operating.
GAUGES
1. Speedometer
The speedometer 1 shows the boat
speed in miles per hour (mph).
2. Tachometers
The boat has two tachometers 2
which display engine rpm. The one
on the left is for the port engine.
The one on the right is for the star-
board engine. For cruising, adjust
the throttle levers so both engines
are running at the same rpm.
NOTE: Because of the mechanical
throttle linkage, the throttle levers may
not be exactly even with one another
when the engines are running at the
same rpm.
