4.7 Stopping the Engine

Stop the engine in accordance with the following proce-
dures.
1. Stop the boat.
Put the remote control handle in NEUTRAL and
reduce the engine speed to the lowest speed.
2. Be sure to race the engine before stopping it.
3. Cool down the engine at low speed (1500rpm or
lower) for about 5 minutes.
4. Continue to push the stop button until the engine is
completely stopped. If you release the button before
the engine has completely stopped, it may restart.
5. Turn the starter switch to OFF, remove the key and
place it in a safe place.
6. Cut off the battery switch.
7. Close the fuel tank cock.
8. Close the kingston cock.
In the rare instance where the engine does not stop
when the stop button is pushed, stop the engine moving
the stop lever attached on the fuel injection pump to the
left by hand.
NOTICE:
Stopping the engine suddenly after operating at high speed or heavy loading without cool-
ing down operation.
It will cause the engine temperature to rise quickly resulting in deterioration of the lube oil
and sticking of parts.
NOTICE:
Neglecting to close the Kingston cock will allow water to leak into the boat and may cause it
to sink. Be sure to close the cock.
