Control Systems
F - 1
GENERAL
F - 2 CONTROL OPERATION
Control systems permit operation of the engine’s
throttle and shift mechanisms. Typically, they consist
of three major components; the control, the throttle
and shift cables.
A. General
NOTICE
The control information included in this section
is general only. For specific operation of the
controls on your boat, refer to the control
manufacturer’s literature and engine
manufacturer’s literature included in your
owner’s packet. Ensure you completely
understand the operation of the controls before
operating your boat. Also consult your dealer
should any questions arise regarding the
operation of the control unit.
The SL stern drive models are equipped with single
engine side-mount control with trim. See Figures F1
and F2. The left lever controls the port engine and the
right lever controls the starboard engine. Moving the
lever forward will shift the drive into forward. Moving it
aft will shift the drive into reverse. Moving the lever
further will increase engine speed.
NOTICE
If your boat is equipped with a non-OEM
remote control system, ask your dealer how to
properly operate it.
NOTICE
Reduce throttle as soon as motor starts. Do
not run a cold motor any faster than necessary
to keep motor from stalling. Do not exceed
2000
RPM in NEUTRAL.

Allow the engine to warm up before engaging
the shift control. Monitor all instruments while
