During normal operation,
the shut-down procedure shall be as follows
:
1. Turn the fuel supply to the engine off.
2. Allow the engine to turn over several times and then disconnect the ignition system. Any residual fuel will
get out of the system or will burn in the cylinders before the ignition system is off.
5 EMERGENCY START AND SHUT-DOWN
In case of an emergency, shut down the engine by turning the fuel supply and ignition system off at the same
time. Failure to comply with this rule may lead to irreparable damage, injury or death.
Before restarting the engine after an emergency shutdown, wait for 10 minutes until the engine
temperatures have stabilised.
Do not restart the engine, unless the causes of the shutdown have been
completely identified and the problems solved. Failing to do this may lead to irreparable damage, injury or
death. Once the problems have been identified and solved, you can restart the engine according to the
normal start-up procedure described in point 4.
