Remote control lever

WARNING
Before shifting, make sure there are no
●
swimmers or obstacles in the water near
you.
When operating in reverse, go slowly.
●
Do not open the throttle more than half.
Otherwise, the boat may become unsta-
ble, which could result in loss of control
and an accident.
Do not shift into reverse while traveling
●
at planing speeds. Loss of control, boat
swamping, or damage to the boat could
occur.
A single lever controls both throttle and shift-
ing. Moving the remote control lever forward
from the neutral position shifts into the forward
position, and then as the lever is moved far-
ther, accelerates the engine for more thrust.
Moving the lever back from the neutral posi-
tion shifts into the reverse position, and then
as the lever is moved farther, accelerates the
engine for more thrust.
