or death. Never operate a boat that does not have a
neutral‑safety‑protection device.

Remote Steering Notice
The steering link rod that connects the steering cable to the engine
must be fastened utilizing self‑locking nuts. These self‑locking nuts
must never be replaced with common nuts (non‑locking) as they
will work loose and vibrate off, freeing the link rod to disengage.
!
WARNING
Improper fasteners or improper installation procedures can result
in loosening or disengagement of the steering link rod. This can
cause a sudden, unexpected loss of boat control, resulting in
serious injury or death due to occupants being thrown within or
out of the boat. Always use required components and follow
instructions and torque procedures.
