LANYARD
The exhaust contains poisonous
carbon monoxide.
Do not start the engine in a poor
ventilation area such as in a boat
house.
To prevent damage to the outboard
from overheating, never run the
engine with the propeller out of
water.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Insert the emergency stop switch
clip at one end of the emergency
stop switch lanyard into the
emergency stop switch. Attach the
other end of the lanyard securely to
the operator.
If the operator does not attach the
emergency stop switch lanyard,
and is thrown from his seat or out
of the boat, the out-of-control boat
can seriously injure the operator,
passengers, or bystanders. Always
properly attach the lanyard before
starting the engine.
The engine will not start unless the
emergency stop switch clip is
engaged with the emergency stop
switch.
