The engine stop switch controls
normal engine stopping and
emergency engine stopping.

The switch clip must be inserted in
the engine stop switch in order for
the engine to start and run. The
lanyard should be attached to the
operator’s PFD (Personal Flotation
Device) or worn around the wrist.

When used as described, the engine
stop switch and lanyard system stops
the engine if the operator falls away
from the controls.

A spare switch clip is supplied with
the tool kit.

The choke knob opens and closes the
choke valve in the carburetor.

The ON position enriches the fuel
mixture for starting a cold engine.

The OFF position provides the
correct fuel mixture for operation
after starting, and for restarting a
warm engine.
