Reverse: Raise the lifter ball under the lever knob and briskly pull the control lever back into the forty-five (45) degrees of travel. Throttle movement will begin after forty-five (45) degrees.

Once the shift has been completed, continue to move the control lever slowly in the desired direction to increase speed.

NOTE: When shifting from forward to reverse or reverse to forward, be sure to stop the control lever in the neutral posi- tion and allow the engine to fall between 600-800 RPM before completing the shift.

Underway

If the oil pressure gauge indicates low or no oil pressure, im- mediately stop the boat as outlined below and check the oil level. If the temperature gauge indicates overheating, immediately stop the boat as outlined below and check the raw water impeller for blockage. DO NOT operate the boat until the cause for the warning has been found and corrected.

Continued operation after the warning light has illuminated may cause severe engine damage. This will void your warranty.

Stopping

Step 1: Slowly bring the control lever to the neutral position. If the boat has been driven for a long period of time or at high speed, allow the engine a 2-3 minute cool-down period at low idle (600-800 RPM).

Step 2: Turn the ignition key to the OFF position to stop the engine.

Step 3: If any problems were encountered during operation, have the boat inspected by an authorized MasterCraft dealer. Request any necessary repairs before resuming operation of the boat.
