4)Place the gear-shift lever in the neutral position.

NOTE:

The start-in-gear protection device prevents the engine from starting except when in Neutral.

5)Place the throttle control grip in the “START” position.

6)Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to a secure place on your clothing, or your arm or leg. Then, install the lock plate on the other end of the lanyard in the engine stop switch.

WARNING

Attach the engine stop switch lanyard to a secure place on your clothing, your arm or leg while operating.

Do not attach the lanyard to clothing that could tear loose. Do not route the lanyard where it could become entan- gled, preventing it from functioning.

Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard during normal operation. Loss of engine power means the loss of most steering control. Also, without engine power, the boat could slow rapidly. This could cause people and objects in the boat to be thrown forward.
