Controls
This section describes the controls Volvo Penta sells
for your engine. Contact your dealer if your boat is
equipped with controls other than those described
here, and you feel uncertain about their function.
Top mounted control
The engine can only be started with the control lever in
the neutral position.
Single installation
A single-lever control operates both gearshift and
throttle functions with the same lever.
Twin installation
The adjustment of engine speed and the gear shift
function are controlled using the control levers. The
port side control lever (A) controls the port side engine
and propulsion unit. The starboard control lever (B)
controls the starboard engine and propulsion unit.
N = Neutral position. Reverse gear/drive disengaged
and engine at idle.
F = Reverse gear/drive engaged for forward motion.
R = Reverse gear/drive engaged for rearward
motion.
T = Engine rpm control (throttle).
Engine and drive features are controlled with push
buttons on the control. The buttons and functions
available depend on the installation.
