GEAR SHIFTING
IMPORTANT: Observe the following:
Never shift the drive into gear unless the engine speed is at idle.
Do not shift the drive into reverse when the engine is not running.
Your power package has three gear shift positions to provide operation:
forward (F), neutral (N), and reverse (R).
When shifting, always stop at the neutral position and allow the engine
speed to return to idle.
Always shift into gear with a quick motion.
After shifting into gear, advance the lever further to increase speed.

Warning System

The warning system on this engine does not have a warning horn. Instead,
there is an oil pressure light located on the front of the engine. If oil pressure
drops below 25 kPa (3.6 psi) the oil pressure light will illuminate, the Engine
Guardian System will be activated, and engine RPM will be limited to 3000.
The Engine Guardian System will also limit RPM of the engine in the event of
an overspeed condition due to cavitation, no load on propeller, and/or under
propped.
