Starter will not operate
If the starter mechanism does not operate
(the engine cannot be cranked with the start-
er), the engine can be started manually with
an emergency starter rope. However, the en-
gine cannot be started manually if the battery
voltage is low. If the battery is discharged to
9 volts or below, the electric fuel pump will
not operate.

WARNING
Use this procedure only in an emergen-
G
cy to return to the nearest port for re-
pairs.
When the emergency starter rope is
G
used to start the engine, the start-in-
ZMU05509
gear protection device does not oper-
ate. Make sure the remote control lever
is in neutral. Otherwise the boat could
unexpectedly start to move, which
could result in an accident.
Attach the engine stop switch lanyard
G
to a secure place on your clothing, or
your arm or leg while operating the
boat.
Do not attach the lanyard to clothing
G
that could tear loose. Do not route the
cord where it could become entangled,
preventing it from functioning.
Avoid accidentally pulling the lanyard

during normal operation. Loss of en-
gine power means the loss of most
steering control. Also, without engine
power, the boat could slow rapidly. This
could cause people and objects in the
boat to be thrown forward.
Make sure no one is standing behind
G
you when pulling the starter rope. It
could whip behind you and injure
someone.
An unguarded, rotating flywheel is very
G
dangerous. Keep loose clothing and
other objects away when starting the
engine. Use the emergency starter rope
