Operation
6. After the engine starts, slowly return the
manual starter handle to its original po-
sition before releasing it.
TIP:
When the engine is cold, it needs to be
●
warmed up. For further information, see
page 39.
If the engine does not start on the first try,
●
repeat the procedure. If the engine fails to
start after 4 or 5 tries, open the throttle a
small amount and try again. Also if the en-
gine is warm and fails to start, open the
throttle a small amount and try to start the
engine again. If the engine still fails to
start, see page 63.

WARNING
Failure to attached engine shut-off cord
●
could result in a runaway boat if opera-
tor is ejected. Attach the engine shut-
off cord to a secure place on your cloth-
ing, or your arm or leg while operating.
Do not attach the cord to clothing that
could tear loose. Do not route the cord
where it could become entangled, pre-
venting it from functioning.
Avoid accidentally pulling the cord dur-
●
ing normal operation. Loss of engine
power means the loss of most steering
37
control. Also, without engine power,
the boat could slow rapidly. This could
cause people and objects in the boat to
be thrown forward.
1. Place the remote control lever in neutral.
