After operation

1.
Let the engine idle for a few minutes with the re-
verse gear in neutral after landing. This will even
out the engine temperature and prevent local
overheating which may cause the coolant to
boil.
2.
Turn the key to stop position "S". Release the
key when the engine has stopped (key will
spring back automatically into the 0 position).
The key can then be taken out.
Safety precautions:
3.
Close the cooling water intake sea cock and the
fuel cocks. For anti-freeze protection, see sec-
tion "Precautions against freezing" on page 32.
4.
Switch off the main switches if the boat is not to
be used for some time.
5.
Inspect the engine and engine compartment for
any leaks.
Emergency stop
Pull the stop lever on the governor to the rear for
manual stop (emergency stop).
