SYNCHRONIZING ENGINES
The auto synchronizing feature, when engaged, will automatically adjust all engine speeds to match the
speed of the starboard engine.
Engine auto synchronization will automatically engage when engine speed is over 900 RPM for two
seconds and remote control handles are positioned within 10% of each other. The "SYNC" light will turn
on when the engines are synchronized. Auto synchronization will stay engaged up to 95% throttle
opening. To disengage, move one or both control handles until they are more than 10% apart, reduce
engine speed below 900 RPM, or increase engine speed beyond 95%.
HELM TRANSFER
Avoid serious injury or death from loss of boat control. The boat operator should never leave the active
station while engine is in gear. Helm transfer should only be attempted while both stations are manned.
One-person helm transfer should only be performed while engine is in neutral.
NOTE: Idle position is preferred when doing a helm transfer. If conditions do not allow the remote control
to be placed at idle position, a helm transfer can be done while in gear.
NOTE: The active light on the remote control will be illuminated at the helm that is in control of the engine.
The helm transfer function allows the boat operator to select which helm is in control of engine operation.
Pressing the throttle only/station select button two times allows engine control to be transferred to a new
helm. When a helm transfer is initiated, the control will automatically start adjusting engine RPM and
gear position to match the control handle setting at the new helm. Adjust the control handles to the desired
throttle and gear position.
