Operation
141
TIP:
The engines will not start when the clip is re-
moved from the engine shut-off switch. The
starter motors will turn over without the cord
attached.
(6) Put the remote control levers in the neu-
tral position. The starter motors will not
operate unless the remote control levers
are in neutral.
(7) Turn the main switch keys to the start po-
sition and release them when the engines
start. If the engines do not start after 5
seconds of cranking, release the keys.
Wait at least 15 seconds before trying to
start the engines again.
NOTICE
● Never turn the main switch keys to the
start position while the engines are run-
ning. The starter mechanisms could be
damaged.
● If the starter motors are engaged contin-
uously for more than 5 seconds, the bat-
tery will become quickly discharged and
it will be impossible to start the engines.
The starter motors may also be dam-
aged if they are engaged continuously
for more than 5 seconds.
On this boat, the engines are connected di-
rectly to the drive units. Starting either engine
generates some thrust immediately. Only
enough throttle should be applied to keep the
engine at a fast enough idle to stay running.
Stopping the engines
WARNING
Once the engines have stopped, you have
NO STEERING CONTROL over the boat.
You could collide with another boat, a
dock, or other obstacle.
Stopping the engines immediately after oper-
ating at high engine speeds is not recom-
mended. Let the engines cool off at idle or low
speed for a few minutes first.
To stop the engines:
(1) Return the remote control levers to the
neutral position.
(2) Turn the main switch keys to the off posi-
tion.
TIP:
The engines can also be stopped by pulling
the engine shut-off cord (lanyard).
(3) Remove the main switch keys and the
engine shut-off cord (lanyard) if the boat
will be left unattended.
