Speed control
To increase speed after you have shifted into
gear, continue moving the control handle for-
ward or rearward.
 WARNING
Since the same handle is used for shift-
ing and speed control it is possible to
move the handle past the detent and
engage the throttle. This can cause the
boat to move suddenly resulting in per-
sonal injury or property damage.
You must be careful not to move the con-
trol handle too far forward or rearward
when shifting.
