Controls and engine systems vary greatly from one engine manufacturer to another. Please read your engine
owner's manual carefully.
Note: If your engine package was not factory installed, some components that are normally
standard installations may not be included.

Throttle and Shift Controls

Ignition – Binnacle, Forward, Neutral and Reverse Gear Operation
The binnacle on the 20 Sport is located at the console forward of the helm seat.
To ensure that the binnacle is working properly, shift the binnacle forward to put
the engine in forward gear. Make sure the engine shifts smoothly into idle with
no grinding of the gears. Bring the binnacle back into neutral and repeat the
same process while going into reverse. Again, ensure that there are no gears
grinding. It is important to check the binnacle at wide-open throttle (WOT) to
ensure the binnacle is not stiff and operates smoothly while going into the WOT
position.
Actual binnacle will vary depending upon the engine package
that was selected.

Key Switch Alarm

The key switch alarm is located in the binnacle and sounds when the ignition key is turned on. The key switch
alarm is actually a warning alarm that goes off when any overheating problems may occur with the engine. To
check the key switch alarm, turn the ignition key to the right but do not start the engine. The alarm will sound
ensuring that the engine warning alarm is working properly. When finished, turn the key off.

Lanyard Stop Switch

To ensure the lanyard stop switch (also called the emergency stop feature) on the engine works properly, first turn
on the ignition key and start up the engine. While the engine is running, locate the lanyard stop switch. The
lanyard stop switch is installed in close proximity to the binnacle or the ignition key. While the engine is running in
the neutral position, pull the lanyard stop switch downward until the plastic element at the end of the lanyard pulls
the stop switch pin into the off position. This process will automatically stop the engine and will ensure that the
emergency lanyard stop switch is working properly.
