Stopping
Usage:
- 1. Remove the load from the engine.
- 2. Allow the engine to run at about half speed for five minutes. This reduces internal temperatures and prevents the loss of coolant by "afterboil".
- 3. Reduce speed to low idle for about 30 seconds.
- 4. DO NOT race the engine before shut off. This causes the turbocharger to "coast" without lubrication.
- 5. Turn gas valve off to stop the engine. Do not use emergency stop button except in emergencies.
