8.2 Using gearshift and throttle

The remote control functions as a throttle, forward and reverse gearshift and the engine trim angle controller.

Risk of material damage.

Do not shift into reverse while travelling at higher speeds as this damages the engine.

  • Put the engine into gear by pushing the button on the gear/throttle handle upward and by pushing or pulling the handle forward or backwards. 

  • When the engine is in gear, adjust the speed using the gear/throttle handle.

  • When the boat is travelling forward at a slow speed, you can use the reverse gear for braking.

For more information on using the remote control, see a separate equipment manufacturer’s manual.
