Stopping the Engine

In normal use:

In an emergency:

Turn the fuel valve lever to the OFF position.

Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.

Disconnect DC battery charging cables.

Turn the AC circuit breaker to the OFF position.

To stop the engine in an emergency, move the engine switch to the
OFF position.

If you wish to use the Auto Throttle system, turn the Auto Throttle
switch to the AUTO position after the engine has warmed up for 2 or
3 minutes.

If you have manually closed the choke, push it to the OPEN position
as the engine warms up.

When the engine starts, allow the engine switch to return to the ON
position.

With electric starter:

Connect the battery cables to the generator. (page

)

Turn the engine switch to the START position and hold it there for
5 seconds or until the engine starts.

Operating the starter motor for more than 5 seconds can damage
the motor. If the engine fails to start, release the switch and wait 10
seconds before operating the starter again.
If the speed of the starter motor drops after a period of time, it is an
indication that the battery should be recharged.
