Reverse: Raise the lier ball under the lever knob and briskly
pull the control lever back into the forty-ve (45) degrees of
travel. rottle movement will begin aer forty-ve (45) degrees.
Once the shi has been completed, continue to move the control
lever slowly in the desired direction to increase speed.
NOTE: When shiing from forward to reverse or reverse to
forward, be sure to stop the control lever in the neutral posi-
tion and allow the engine to fall between 600-800 RPM before
completing the shi.
Underway
If the oil pressure gauge indicates low or no oil pressure, im-
mediately stop the boat as outlined below and check the oil level.
If the temperature gauge indicates overheating, immediately
stop the boat as outlined below and check the raw water impeller
for blockage. DO NOT operate the boat until the cause for the
warning has been found and corrected.
Continued operation after the warning light has illuminated may
cause severe engine damage. This will void your warranty.
Stopping
Step 1: Slowly bring the control lever to the neutral position. If
the boat has been driven for a long period of time or at
high speed, allow the engine a 2-3 minute cool-down
period at low idle (600-800 RPM).
Step 2: Turn the ignition key to the OFF position to stop the
engine.
Step 3: If any problems were encountered during operation,
have the boat inspected by an authorized MasterCra
dealer. Request any necessary repairs before resuming
operation of the boat.
