SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE
NOTICE
For maximum engine life, Isuzu recommends that
when shutting the engine down, you allow the
engine to idle, without load, for five minutes. This
will allow the engine components that operate at
high temperatures, such as the turbocharger (if
equipped) and exhaust system, to cool slightly
before the engine itself is shut down.
Follow these steps to shut down the engine:
1. Disengage the PTO and/or set the transmission
to NEUTRAL (if equipped).
2. Set the engine speed control to its lowest
setting.
3. Run the engine at low idle speed for at least five
minutes before you shut it down.

4. Turn the key to the OFF position (Figure 7, (1))
or (Figure 8, (1)) and remove it from the key
switch.

5. If the engine will not be used for six months or
longer, follow the additional instructions in
Long-Term Storage on page 99.
