Emergency Stop Switch
Always use the safety lanyard when
operating your boat to help prevent a
runaway boat and reduce the risk of
personal injury or death.
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 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.
WARNING
Avoid knocking or pulling the clip off
the stop switch while under way. The
resulting unexpected loss of forward
motion can throw occupants forward,
causing injury.
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, the stop switch must be ser-
viced.
