1. Disengage clutch (if equipped) controlling engine

drivelines.

2. Move the throttle (A) to slow idle on standard

(mechanical) governor engines.

IMPORTANT: Before stopping an engine that has

been operating at working load, idle
engine at least 2 minutes at 1000–1200
rpm to cool hot engine parts.

For engines in generator set
applications, where the governor is
locked at a specified speed and no slow
idle function is available, run engine for
at least 2 minutes at fast idle and no
load.

3. Turn key switch (B) to "OFF" position to stop the

engine. Remove ignition key.

IMPORTANT: Make sure that exhaust stack cap (rain

cap) is installed when engine is not
running. This will prevent water and dirt
from entering engine.
