Avoid accidentally pulling the cord dur-
G
ing normal operation. Loss of engine
power means the loss of most steering
control. Also, without engine power, the
boat could slow rapidly. This could
cause people and objects in the boat to
be thrown forward.
3. Place the throttle grip in the "
(start) position.
4. Pull out / turn the choke knob fully. After
the engine starts, replace / return the
knob to the home position.
NOTE:
It is not necessary to use the choke when
G
starting a warm engine.
If the choke knob is left in the "
G
position while the engine is running, the en-
gine will run poorly or stall.
5. Pull the manual starter handle slowly until
you feel resistance. Then give a strong
pull straight out to crank and start the en-
gine. Repeat if necessary.

6. After the engine starts, slowly return the

tion before releasing it.
