Steering System

It is important that you get the “feel” of your Malibu boat’s steering system. Turn the

wheel from full left to full right, and make sure the rudder is turning accordingly. The

system should operate freely and smoothly.

Notice: It is normal for your Malibu steering to pull slightly to the right

under normal driving conditions. The boat will pull straight

while skier is under tow.

Emergency Engine Stop Switch

The emergency engine stop switch attaches to the

driver of the boat and shuts down the engine if the driver

of the boat is accidentally forced away from the helm.

The switch consists of a helm-mounted switch plunger

and a switch clip/lanyard clip, which is connected

between the stop clip and the operator. Should the

operator move away from the controls, the clip pulls

free, releasing the plunger and stopping the engine.

If the engine must be shut down quickly, a pull on the

cord to release the clip from the switch will stop the

engine.

To reset the switch after activation, reinstall the switch clip.

Notice:

If lanyard switch is damaged or lost you can purchase a new

switch through your local marina or Malibu dealer.
