Stopping
Engine stopping method varies depending on the specifications.
To stop the engine, follow the proper instructions for each machine.
Emergency Stop
To perform an emergency stop, pull the manual stop
lever fully to the stop direction (arrow). Keep pulling
the manual lever until the engine stops completely.
Note: When the engine does not stop even if the man-
ual stop lever is pulled, cut fuel supply.

Inspection After Stopping
Inspect the engine for fluid leaks such as fuel, oil or coolant. If any leak is found, repair the leak or contact a your
local dealer.
Stopping the engine abruptly during high-speed operation or while engine is hot will shorten the engine life. Before
stopping the engine, run the engine with the idle speed at low Rpm for 5 or 6 minutes to cool the engine, and
check the engine for abnormalities.
Do not race the engine immediately before shutting it down.
If the engine stops abnormally, do not restart the engine immediately. When the engine stops with alarms, be sure
to locate the cause of the problem and correct the problem before starting the engine again. After restarting the
operation, check the engine for abnormalities again. If an abnormality is detected, repair it immediately.
When stopping the engine by pulling the manual
stop lever, keep pulling the lever until the engine
stops completely. If not, the engine may start again.
