A
CAUTION
Failure to observe could result in minor personal injury or product or
property damage.
Note:
This instruction provides special information to facilitate the use or
maintenance of the outboard or to clarify important points.
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH
The stop switch will cut off the engine when the stop switch line is pulled out.
This line can be attached to the body of the operator. effectively preventing
injuries from the propeller in case he/she falls overboard.
We highly recommend use of the stop switch line because it can save the life of
the operator if somethings bad happens. However, we would also like to point
out the drawbacks of the switch. Accidental activation of the swtch (such as the
line being pulled out in heavy seas) could cause passengers to lose their balance
and even fall overboard, or it could result in loss of power in heavy seas, strong
currents. or high winds. Loss of control while mooring is another potential
hazard.
To prevent such hazardous situations. the 500 mm line is coiled and can
extended to a full 1,300 mm
