The shift function and engine speed control are combined in one lever. If necessary the shift function can be
easily disengaged so that only the engine speed (rpm) is affected by the lever. The control lever has an adjustable
friction brake. A neutral position switch is available as an accessory, this will only permit the engine to be started
with the drive/reverse gear disengaged.
For top-mounted controls
Adjusting the friction brake
The friction brake only affects the engine speed control move-
ments.
● Lift the cover over the control. For side-mounted controls the
lever must first be removed.
● Set the lever to the half-open throttle/reverse position.
● Adjust the friction brake. Turning the screw clockwise (+) makes
the lever movement stiffer, while turning counterclockwise (–)
makes it easier to move the lever.
● Reinstall the cover and lever.
Maneuvering
Shifting and engine speed are controlled with the same lever (1).
N = Neutral position. Drive/reverse gear disengaged.
F = Drive/reverse gear engaged for movement ahead.
R = Drive/reverse gear engaged for movement astern.
T = Engine speed control
Disengaging the shift function
● Move lever (1) to the neutral position (N).
● Press in button (2), move the lever slightly forward and release
the button.
The shift function is now disengaged and the lever affects only
engine speed. When the lever is moved back to the neutral
position it will automatically re-engage.
IMPORTANT! Take care not to engage the drive/reverse gear
by mistake.
