Fast Idle in NEUTRAL
FUEL ECONOMY
Concealed Side Mount and Binnacle Mount Con-
trols
The economy throttle range can save fuel, depend-
ing on boat load and hull design. When boat reach-
es top speed, throttle back from FULL SPEED to
the economy throttle range. You will save fuel with-
out a noticeable loss of speed.
IMPORTANT: Avoid excessive engine RPM in
NEUTRAL — adjust the throttle so the engine does
not overspeed.
With the control handle in NEUTRAL, push the fast
idle button while using the other hand to move the
control handle forward, past the forward gear de-
tent and into the throttle range. If equipped with a
neutral lock tab, squeeze it to begin handle travel.
