steered fully to the right and left. Make

astern of the boat.

stop switch tether to the operator's
clothing or arm and keep it
attached during cruising.
• Do not attach the tether to a part
of clothing that can be torn easily
when pulled.

caught by any object when pulled
.

accidentally during cruising.

if cooling water check port is not
discharging water, and check if cooling
water intake is blocked. Operating
engine could lead to overheating
potentially leading to engine damage.
Consult an authorized dealer if the
cause cannot be found.
Note
Confirm that the reverse lock lever is at
“LOCK” position before running your
motor.
