Operation
Operation
Shifting between forward and reverse should be done
at idling. Shifting at higher engine speeds can be un-
comfortable for passengers and cause unnecessary
stress on the stern drive, or cause the engine to stop.
Always do a forwards/reverse operation as follows:
1. Reduce engine speed to idle and let the boat more
or less lose way.
WARNING! Never shift to reverse when the boat
is planing.
2. Move the control lever to neutral with a rapid, dis-
tinct movement. Make a brief pause.
3. Then move the control lever to reverse with a rapid,
distinct movement and increase engine speed.
IMPORTANT! If the boat has twin engines, it is
important that both should be running during re-
versing maneuvers, to avoid the risk of water entry
(via the exhaust pipe) into the stationary engine.
