UP

The emergency stop switch clip
and lanyard system is a safety
device that will stop the engine if
you fall away from the controls
while operating the boat.

Always attach the lanyard to your
PFD, or to your wrist, before
starting the engine.

Check to be sure there are no fuel
leaks before starting the engine.

Do not squeeze the priming bulb
when the engine is running.

The engine will not start or run,
unless the clip is in the switch.

Put the emergency stop switch clip
in the emergency stop switch, and
attach the lanyard to your PFD
(Personal Flotation Device) or to
your wrist, as shown.

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.
