OPERATION
8. If it was necessary to remove the
emergency stop switch lanyard
from you to perform the
emergency starting procedure, be
sure the lanyard is attached
securely to operator before
operating the outboard motor.
9. Have your closest authorized
Honda marine dealer check your
recoil starter system and correct
the problem, so you can use the
recoil starter.
The recoil starter assembly should
be reinstalled after the recoil
starter is working again. Install the
recoil starter assembly with the
engine stopped.
