Emergency Starting

If the starter rope should break or the rewind starter fails, use the spare starter rope
(provided) and follow this procedure.
1
Shift outboard to neutral position.
When using emergency starter rope to start engine, the start at idle speed
protection is inoperative. Make sure to have the engine speed set at slow and
the outboard gear shift positioned in neutral to prevent outboard from
starting in gear. Sudden unexpected acceleration could result in serious
injury or death.
2
Pry the fuel filter out of its mount.
