The engine will not start or run
unless the emergency stop switch
clip is in the emergency stop
switch.
Hold the priming bulb up in the
direction of the arrow; then squeeze
the priming bulb several times until it
feels firm, indicating that fuel has
reached the engine.
Check to be sure there are no fuel
leaks before starting the engine.
Do not touch the priming bulb with
the engine running or when tilting up
the outboard motor. The carburetor
could overflow.
Always attach the emergency stop
switch lanyard securely to the
operator or to the operator’s PFD
before starting the engine.
The emergency stop switch clip
and emergency stop switch lanyard
system is a safety device that will
stop the engine if you fall away
from the controls while operating
the boat.
Put the emergency stop switch clip
in the emergency stop switch, and
attach the emergency stop switch
lanyard securely to the operator or
to the operator’s PFD (Personal
Flotation Device). 1.
