2004 Evinrude 75 90 hp E-TEC PL PX SL Outboard Motor Owners Manual

   Using Your E-TEC Outboard
Emergency Stop/Key Switch
WARNING
A  combination  emergency  stop switch  and
key switch  is a feature  of Evinrude prewired
remote controls and  all Evinrude control  wir-
ing kits. Use of the emergency stop feature is
highly recommended on all boats.
Always  use  the  safety  lanyard   when
operating your  boat  to help  prevent a
runaway  boat  and  reduce  the risk  of
personal injury or death.
Connect the  clip to  the emergency  stop/key
switch. Snap the lanyard to a secure place on
the  operator’s  clothing   or  life  vest  —  not
where it might tear away instead of activating
the  stop switch.  Disconnecting  the clip  and
lanyard will  stop the engine  and prevent the
boat from  becoming  a runaway  if the  driver
moves beyond the range of the lanyard. If the
lanyard  is too  long,  it can  be  shortened by
knotting or  looping it. DO  NOT cut and  retie
the  lanyard. In  an emergency  situation,  the
engine can be started without the clip in place.
Follow the  normal  starting procedure.  Rein-
stall a clip as soon as possible.
Avoid knocking  or  pulling the  clip  off
the stop switch during normal  boating.
Avoid  bumping   the  key  if   operating
without  the   clip  on  the   switch.  The
resulting  unexpected  loss  of  forward
motion  can throw  occupants  forward,
causing injury.
Your  emergency  stop  switch   can  be
effective  only  when  in  good  working
condition. At  each outing,  inspect clip
and lanyard  for  cuts, breaks,  or wear.
Replace worn or damaged parts.
Keep  the  lanyard   free  from  obstruc-
tions and entanglements.
At each outing, test  the system’s oper-
ation. With the engine running, remove
the clip  from the switch  by pulling the
lanyard.  If  the  engine  does  not  stop
running, see your Dealer.
