STARTER WILL NOT OPERATE

If the starter mechanism does not operate
(engine cannot be cranked with the
starter), the engine can be started with an
emergency starter rope.

w

8 Use this procedure only in an emer-

gency and only to return to port for
repairs.

8 When the emergency starter rope is

used to start the engine, the start-in-
gear protection device does not oper-
ate. Make sure the gear shift lever/
remote control lever is in neutral. Oth-
erwise, the boat could unexpectedly
start to move, which could result in an
accident.

8 Be sure no one is standing behind you

when pulling the starter rope. It could
whip behind you and injure someone.

8 An unguarded rotating flywheel is very

dangerous. Keep loose clothing and
other objects away when starting the
engine. Use the emergency starter rope
only as instructed. Do not touch the fly-
wheel or other moving parts when the
engine is running. Do not install the
starter mechanism or top cowling after
the engine is running.

8 Do not touch the ignition coil, high

voltage wire, spark plug cap or other
electrical components when starting of
operating the motor. You could be
shocked.
