recommends that the
following procedure is used for routine shutdowns in
order to keep the system in optimal condition, and
minimimize undue stress that may occur during the next
start up session if some of the machine conditions were
left in working mode(s) or had auxiliary power draws left
intact (such as a tool receptacle left plugged into the
generator, etc.).
To prepare the machine for shutdown:
1. Shut off any tools or other items that are
drawing power from the generator, or
compressed air from the air tank.
2. Close all service valves.
CAUTION
Compressors and engines generate heat
and create hot surfaces. Use caution
when operating and servicing
equipment. Some surfaces and
components may be hot.
NOTE
Refer to Engine Operator’s Manual for
additional information pertaining to the
starting of the engine.
