Free accelerator
To open the throttle without shifting into either
forward or reverse, push the free accelerator
button and move the remote control lever.
NOTE:
● The free accelerator button can only be
used when the remote control lever is in the
neutral position.
● After the button is pushed, the throttle be-
gins to open after the remote control lever is
moved at least 35°.
● After using the free accelerator, return the
remote control lever to the neutral position.
The free accelerator button will return auto-
matically to its set position. The remote con-
trol will then engage forward and reverse
normally.

Throttle friction adjuster
A friction device provides adjustable resis-
tance to movement of the throttle grip or the
remote control lever, and can be set accord-
ing to operator preference.
To increase resistance, turn the adjuster
clockwise. To decrease resistance, turn the
adjuster counterclockwise.
WARNING
EWM00031
Do not overtighten the friction adjuster. If
there is too much resistance, it could be
difficult to move the remote control lever
or throttle grip, which could result in an
accident.
