Owner's Manual DF350A Operation[Before Attempting To Start The Engine]

1. Lower the motor into the water.

2. Make sure that the motor fuel hose and the hose from the boat’s fuel tank are securely attached and clamped.

1. Make sure the motor is in “NEUTRAL”.

1. Make sure the lock plate is in place and the emergency stop switch cord is fastened securely to your wrist or appropriate clothing area such as your belt.

Failure to properly attach the emergency stop switch cord or to take proper precautions to help ensure that the emergency stop switch works as intended may result in serious injury or death to the operator or passengers.
Always take the following precautions:
• Make sure that the emergency stop switch cord is fastened securely to the operator’s wrist or to an appropriate clothing area (belt etc.).
• Ensure that no obstructions impede or restrict emergency stop switch operation.
• Be careful not to pull the stop switch cord or knock out the lock plate during normal operation. The motor will stop abruptly, and the loss of forward motion may unexpectedly throw occupants forward.

There is a spare plastic lock plate for temporary use only. Remove it from the cord and place in a safe place on the boat. However, the original cord and lock plate should be replaced as soon as possible.
