Remote control lever

WARNING
Before shifting, make sure there are no

swimmers or obstacles in the water
near you.
 When operating in reverse, go slowly.
Do not open the throttle more than half.
Otherwise, the boat may become unsta-
ble, which could result in loss of control
and an accident.
 Do not shift into reverse while traveling
at planing speeds. Loss of control, boat
swamping, or damage to the boat could
occur.
A single lever controls both throttle and shift-
ing. Moving the remote control lever forward
from the neutral position shifts the boat oper-
ation to forward operation, and then as the le-
ver is moved farther, accelerates the engine
for more thrust. Moving the lever back from
the neutral position shifts the boat operation
to reverse operation, and then as the lever is
moved farther, accelerates the engine for
more thrust.
