Emergency Safety Lanyard system as failure to do so
can cause death or serious injury.
DO NOT operate the boat if the Emergency Safety
Lanyard system does not function properly.
• Attach the Emergency Safety Lanyard to a secure place on
your clothing, your arm or your leg while operating.
• DO NOT attach the lanyard to clothing that could tear
loose.
• DO NOT route the lanyard where it could become
entangled, preventing it from functioning.
• Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard during normal
operation.
• Loss of engine power means loss of most steering control.
• Without engine power, the boat will decelerate rapidly. This
could cause people in the boat to be thrown forward or
ejected overboard if they are not properly seated in the boat.
There are practical limitations to what the Emergency Safety
Lanyard can do. It can take several seconds for the engine and
propeller to stop turning. The boat can continue to coast for
several hundred feet depending on the boat speed at the time the
switch is activated. While the boat is coasting, it can cause injury to
anyone in its path. Accidental loss of power can be hazardous
particularly when docking or in heavy seas, strong current, or high
winds.
While at the dock or when the boat is not moving, periodically
disconnect/pull the Emergency Safety Lanyard out of the switch
while the engine is running to test for proper operation. The
engine should shut off when the lanyard is disconnected/pulled
from the switch. You should not be able to restart the engine until
the lanyard is back in place.
