If the electric starter fails or the battery’s voltage is
too low to power the starter, use the cord from the
tool kit and these instructions to start your engine
manually.
IMPORTANT: The battery must have enough reserve voltage to activate the electric pump or the
engine will not start using the emergency starting
procedures. Do your best to determine battery status by listening for the electric fuel pump audible cycle before continuing the emergency starting
procedures. The electric fuel pump cycles each
time the key switch is turned from OFF to ON.
Place key switch in OFF position with the motor in
normal operating position. Refer to Tilting.
Move the control handle to NEUTRAL, then remove
engine cover.
Loosen the lock nut. Remove the cable from the
bracket. Separate end of cable from the cam.
1. NEUTRAL
After starting, run the engine in NEUTRAL with the
throttle at the START position for two minutes.
Then reduce speed to an idle.
DO NOT attempt to replace manual starter or engine cover while engine is running. If equipped, attach emergency stop switch’s lanyard to a secure
place on your clothing.
Proceed to nearest harbor for service.

The economy throttle range can save fuel, depending on boat load and hull design. When boat reaches top speed, throttle back from FULL SPEED to
