pressure is removed from the throttle lever and the throttle cable or

valves do not return to the normal closed position.

result in serious injury or death in the event of an accident. If the

throttle safety switch does not shut off the engine during a throttle

system malfunction, immediately push down the engine stop

switch. Do not start the engine again until the malfunction has

been corrected by your dealer.

system daily before operation.

3. Hold the throttle lever pin

stationary by exerting pressure
