Do not attach the lanyard to clothing
that could tear loose. Do not route the
lanyard where it could become entan-

using the neutral throttle lever or free ac-

starts, return the throttle to the original

NOTE:
On remote controls equipped with a neu-
tral throttle lever, a good starting point is to
lift the lever just until you feel resistance,
then lift slightly more.
The neutral throttle lever or free accelera-
tor can only be used when the remote con-
trol lever is in neutral.

erate the remote choke system. The re-

NOTE:
It is not necessary to use the choke when
starting a warm engine.
Push in the main switch fully, or the remote
choke system will not operate.
