WARNING
Failure to properly attach the emergency
stop switch cord or to take proper pre-
cautions to help ensure that the emer-
gency stop switch works as intended may
result in serious injury or death to the
operator or passengers.
Always take the following precautions:
• Make sure that the emergency stop
switch cord is fastened securely to the
operator's wrist or to an appropriate
clothing area (belt etc.).
• Ensure that no obstructions impede or
restrict emergency stop switch opera-
tion.
• Be careful not to pull the stop switch
cord or knock out the lock plate during
normal operation. The motor will stop
abruptly, and the loss of forward
motion may unexpectedly throw occu-
pants forward.
NOTE:
There is a spare plastic lock plate for temporary
use only. Remove it from the cord and place in
a safe place on the boat. However, the original
cord and lock plate should be replaced as soon
as possible.
STARTING THE ENGINE
WARNING
Exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide,
a dangerous gas that is difficult to detect
because it is colorless and odorless.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause
death or severe injury.
Never start the engine or let it run indoors
or where there is little or no ventilation.
NOTE:
• If the engine fails to start, check the emer-
gency stop switch lock plate. If the lock plate
is not in position, the engine cannot be
started.
• The starter motor can operate even with the
lock plate not in position; however, the engine
cannot be started.
NOTE:
Perform the following prior to starting if your
motor is brand-new or there is no fuel in the fuel
tank:
Fill the fuel tank with fresh gasoline.
Squeeze the fuel line priming bulb several times
until you feel resistance.
Pull the starter grip sharply several times or
operate the starter motor to fill the fuel line with
fuel, then follow the normal starting procedure
steps.
