If the operator does not attach the
emergency stop switch lanyard,
and is thrown from his seat or out
of the boat, the out-of-control boat
can seriously injure the operator,
passengers, or bystanders. Always
properly attach the lanyard before
starting the engine.

The engine does not start unless the

A spare emergency stop switch clip
can be stored in the tool bag (see page
