Maneuvering
Shifting between ahead and astern must be done at
idle revolutions. Shifting at higher revolutions can be
uncomfortable for those on board and cause unnec-
essary stress to the transmission or make the engine
stall.
Always shift between ahead and astern in
the following manner:
1 Reduce engine revolutions to idle and allow the
boat to lose most of its speed.
2 Move the control lever to the neutral position with
a quick, firm movement. Pause a moment.
3 Move the control lever back with a quick, firm
movement and increase revolutions.
