Controls

The shift function and engine speed control are combined in one lever. The shift function can be simply disengaged so that only engine speed is affected. The Volvo Penta controls are available for top or side mounting. The control levers have 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 disengaged. Your boat may be equipped with remote controls other than those described above. If Volvo Penta controls are not used, ask your selling dealer for operating instructions for the remote control used in your boat since operation and function may differ from Volvo Penta remote controls.

2 T 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 forward movement (ahead). R = Drive/reverse gear engaged for backward movement (astern). T = Engine speed control.

2 T Disengaging the shift function

Move lever (1) to the neutral position (N). Press in button (2), move the lever slightly forward and release 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 by mistake.

Adjustment of friction brake

The friction brake only affects engine speed adjustment. Adjust with the lever in the throttle half open position (forward/reverse). Remove the cover over the control. For side-

mounted controls the lever must first be removed.

Adjust the friction brake by turning the screw at the arrow (see figure). Turn clockwise (+) for more friction and counterclockwise (-) for less friction. Reinstall the cover and lever.
