2005 Johnson 55 hp 2-Stroke Outboard Owners Manual

EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH
An extra clip is provided — another person can in-
sert it in the stop switch and start the    motor in an
emergency.
If equipped, the emergency stop switch is on the
steering handle. Use of the emergency stop feature
is highly recommended on all boats.

Connect  the  clip  to  the  emergency  stop  switch.
Snap the lanyard to a  secure place on the opera-
tor’s clothing or life vest — not where it might tear
away instead of activating the stop switch. Discon-
necting 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 or retie the lanyard.

resulting
unexpected    loss    of    forward
motion can throw occupants forward, caus-
ing injury.

Your emergency  stop  switch can  be effec-
tive  only  when in  good  working  condition.
At each outing, inspect clip and lanyard for
cuts, breaks, or wear. Replace worn or dam-
aged parts.
