Trouble Recovery
Make sure that no one is standing be-
hind you when pulling the starter rope. It
could whip behind you and injure some-
one.
An unguarded, rotating flywheel is very
dangerous. Keep loose clothing and
other objects away when starting the
engine. Use the emergency starter rope
only as instructed. Do not touch the fly-
wheel or other moving parts when the
engine is running. Do not install the
starter mechanism or top cowling after
the engine is running.
Do not touch the ignition coil, spark plug
wire, spark plug cap, or other electrical
components when starting or operating
the outboard motor. You could get an
electrical shock.
