Operation
5. After the engine starts, slowly return the
manual starter handle to its original po-
sition before releasing it.
TIP:
When the engine is cold, it needs to be
warmed up. For further information, see
page 55.
6. Slowly return the throttle grip to the fully
closed position.
Starting procedure (warm engine)
1. Place the gear shift lever in neutral.
TIP:
The start-in-gear protection device prevents
the engine from starting except when in neu-
tral.
2. Attach the engine shut-off cord to a se-
cure place on your clothing, or your arm
or leg. Then install the clip on the other
end of the cord into the engine shut-off
switch.

3. Open the throttle grip as shown in the il-
lustration.
TIP:
If the throttle is opened too much, the en-
G
gine speed rises rapidly, causing the out-
board motor to swivel toward the starboard
side.
Do not repeat opening and closing of the
G
throttle grip as this cause the spark plug to
wet with fuel and prevent from the engine
to start.
4. Hold this throttle grip position by tighten-
ing the throttle friction adjuster.
