Engine & Controls

DO NOT shi quickly from forward to reverse gear positions as
drive system damage may occur.
DO NOT "pump" the throttle in neutral or ooding will result
just as will happen if you pump the automobile accelerator pedal.
Today's engines use an enrichment valve system that requires very
little starting throttle.
DO NOT try to shi into forward or reverse gear at high rpm's.
Personal injury, drive system, or property damage may result.
Only use idle throttle positions when docking or maneuvering in
tight quarters.
Wear your safety lanyard at all times.
Never shi the controls with the engine not running. Control,
linkage, and/or stern drive damage may occur.
For more information, read and understand your engine
manufacturer's manual before operating remote control.
