Remote Controls (Panel Mounted)
Your boat may be equipped with one of many Quicksilver remote controls available. All controls feature an
integral safety switch that allows starting engine in NEUTRAL only. Also, all controls may not have all features
shown.
NOTE: If boat is equipped with a remote control other than shown, consult your dealer for a description and/or
demonstration of the control.
1 Neutral Lock Bar - Prevents accidental shift and throttle engagement. Neutral lock bar must be pulled Up
to move the control handle out of neutral.
2 Throttle Only Button - Allows engine throttle advancement without shifting the engine. This is done by disen-
gaging the shift mechanism from the control handle. The throttle only button can be depressed only when the
remote control handle is in the Neutral position, and should only be used to assist in starting the engine.
3 Power Trim Switch - See Power Trim for detailed power trim operating procedures.

Power Trim for detailed trailer switch operation.
5 Lanyard Stop Switch - Turns ignition Off whenever the operator (when attached to the lanyard) moves far
enough away from the operators position to activate the switch. See Lanyard Stop Switch at the front of this
manual for safety warning on the use of this switch.
6 Control Handle Tension Adjustment Screw - This screw can be adjusted to Increase or Decrease the
tension on the control handle. This will help prevent Creep of the remote control handle. Turn screw Clockwise
to increase tension and Counterclockwise to decrease tension. Adjust to tension desired.
7 Control Handle - Operation of the shift and throttle are controlled by the movement of the control handle.
Push the control handle forward from Neutral with a quick firm motion to the first detent for Forward gear.
