Chapter 3 OPERATION
3-14
Stopping
Stopping the engine abruptly while engine parts are hot due to high-speed operation can be a cause for heat
up of the engine parts and shorten the service life of the engine. Before stopping the engine, let it operate at
low idle speed for 5 to 6 minutes to cool down operation. Stopping the engine immediately after high-speed
operation can cause engine parts to be heated up and result in bad effects.
During cooling operation, check the engine for abnormalities.
Do not accelerate the engine prior to shutting it down.
Do not restart the engine immediately after it shuts down due to an abnormality. If an alarm is generated when
the engine stops, locate the cause of the problem and correct the problem before restarting the engine.
Continuing engine operation without correcting the problem can result in a serious accident.
For stopping the engine, follow the instructions
since stopping procedure varies depending upon
the models and its installed equipment.
Emergency Stop
When stopping the engine by pulling the speed con-
trol lever, continue pulling the lever until the engine
stops completely. If not, the engine may start again
To stop the engine with emergency lever, pull the
manual lever to the arrow direction and continue
pulling the lever until the engine stops completely.
Note: If the operation of the manual stop lever fails
to shut down the engine, cut off the fuel sup-
ply.
Inspection After Stopping
Inspect the engine parts to make sure there is no fuel, oil or coolant leakage. If a fuel or oil leak is found, repair
the leakage or contact a Mitsubishi dealer.
