ture can prevent injuries resulting

in
the Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts
and
Accessories Catalog.

the installation of
all remote controls carefully. Read the outboard's
Operator's Guide and the remote
control's installa-
tion instructions prior
to
installation.

features:
• Start-in-gear prevention.
• Emergency stop /
key
switch.

to
outboard's specifi-
cations (1.125 to 1.330
in.

measured between NEUTRAL and FOR-
WARD).
