• If the operator decreases engine speed to less
than approximately 6200 RPM within 10 sec-
onds, the over-revolution caution control will be
cancelled.
• If the engine is operated at a speed above 6500
RPM for more than 10 seconds, the engine
speed will be automatically lowered to approxi-
mately 300 RPM by intermittent ignition.

control, the caution lamp is ON.

close the throttle to reduce engine speed below
approximately 2500 RPM for more than one sec-
ond.

caution system activates at 4000 RPM and the
caution lamp does not light. To cancel the neutral
rev-limiter, close throttle completely for more than
one second .
