Operating the Generator
18 Operator’s Manual
AT HIGH TEMPERATURES, SUCH AS THE
TURBOCHARGER (IF EQUIPPED) AND
EXHAUST SYSTEM, TO COOL SLIGHTLY
BEFORE THE ENGINE ITSELF IS SHUT DOWN.
Set Engine Speed Control to STOP
CAUTION: IF THE ENGINE CONTINUES TO
RUN AFTER YOU POSITION THE ENGINE
SPEED CONTROL TO THE STOP POSITION,
TURN THE FUEL COCK TO THE CLOSED
POSITION.
1. Press the Speed Control knob to STOP and the engine
speed control lever will automatically return to the STOP
position.
Note: The speed control lever is spring -loaded so
when you push down on the STOP button, the
speed control lever moves back to the shut-off
position. There is no idle position or intermediate
speeds.
ELECTRIC START MODELS
Turn the key to the OFF position and remove it from the
key switch.
AFTER THE ENGINE STOPS
1. Move the fuel cock lever to the closed position.
2. Slowly pull the recoil starter handle out to the point of
resistance (the point in the compression stroke where
the intake and exhaust valves are closed). This helps
to prevent rust while the engine is not in use.
3. If the engine will not be used for six months or longer,
follow the additional instructions on storage.
