CONTROLOPERATION
Control systems permit operation of the engine’s throttle A. Carbureted Engines
and shift mechanisms. They consist of three major com-
ponents; the control, and the throttle and shift cables.
The shift mechanism on the controls can be disengaged
to allow for easier starting and engine warm-up. See Fig-

sure shifting is done at low engine speed.
2.
Press both neutral lock button (A) and shift disen-
gage button (C).
A “start-in-neutral-only” feature which prevents starting in
gear is included. Refer to F-3 Neutral Safety Switch in
this section.
3. Move control handle forward to increase throttle.
Also, the side mount control has a neutral lock button to
prevent accidental shifting. It must be squeezed to per-
mit shifting from neutral to forward or reverse.
Built into the control is a trim control which you can use
to adjust the position of the out drive. Pressing the switch
in the UP position moves the outdrive out and away from
the transom. Pressing the switch in the DOWN posi-
tion moves the outdrive in closer to the transom. The
switch returns to its center neutral position when re-
leased. For additional information see Section E-5.
Neutral is in the center or straight up position. Rotating
the control forward shifts the engine into forward. Rotat-
