Throttle‑only button. Allows engine throttle advancement without shifting the engine. This is done by disengaging the shift
mechanism from the control handle. The throttle‑only button can be pressed only when the remote control handle is in the

handle forward from neutral with a quick, firm motion to the first detent for forward gear and continue pushing forward to
increase speed. Pull the control handle back from neutral with a quick, firm motion to the first detent for reverse gear and
continue pushing back to increase speed.
Control handle tension adjustment screw (not visible). This screw is used to adjust the effort required to move the remote
control handle. Refer to the instructions provided with the remote control for complete adjustment instructions.

Engine Electrical System Overload Protection

If an electrical overload occurs, a fuse will open (blow). Find and correct the cause of the electrical overload before replacing
the fuse.
NOTE: In an emergency, when the engine must be operated and the cause of the electrical overload cannot be located and
corrected, turn off or disconnect all the accessories connected to the engine and instrumentation wiring. Replace the blown
fuse. If the replacement fuse also blows, then the electrical overload has not been eliminated. Further checks must be made on
the electrical system. Do not circumvent the electrical overload protection provided on fused circuits by installing a
higher amperage fuse or shorting across the fuse block terminals.
Fuses provide protection for the engine electrical system as indicated. The fuse panel is located beneath an access panel in
the front of the engine cover.
