Checking the shift gate mechanisms

WARNING
Do not touch the shift gates while the re-

otherwise you could be pinched.
Check the shift gates for proper operation.
(1) Remove the engine shut-off cord (lan-
yard) and main switch keys.
(2) Put the remote control levers in the neu-
tral position.
(3) Check that the shift gates are slightly
above the shift gate neutral position when
the remote control levers are in the for-
ward position, and that the shift gates are
in the fully open position when the remote
control levers are moved farther forward.
