Locking/Unlocking Stations

If an active station is locked, it is impossible to change
stations and stop/start the engine from another sta-
tion.
Lock an active station by pushing the ACTIVATION
BUTTON 1. Unlock an active locked station by push-
ing the ACTIVATION BUTTON.
The PADLOCK SIGN 2 on the control panel indicates
whether a station is locked (lit) or unlocked (off).

Disengaging the Shift Function

Neutral Warming-up – The gear shift can be disen-
gaged so that the control lever affects only the engine
speed. For additional information, please see Disen-
gaging the Shift Function on page 27.

Engine Synchronization Function

The engine synchronization function makes the en-
gines in a twin installation operate at the same engine
speed (RPM). It improves fuel economy and opera-
tional comfort.
The function is automatically activated if the following
conditions are met:
•
Both the control levers must be in approximately
the same position.
•
The engine speed must exceed 800 RPM.
The function is disengaged as soon as the conditions
are no longer met or when operating at wide open
throttle.

Stopping Using the Start/Stop Panel

Push the stop button. Release the button when the en-
gine has stopped. Use both buttons for twin engines.
If a station is active and locked, the engine(s) can
only be stopped from that station.
