Stopping the engine

In the case of extended inactivity, the engine must be run to operating temperature at least once every 14 days.
This prevents corrosion in the engine. If the engine will not be used for more than two months, inhibiting should be
carried out: Refer to chapter "Shut down".
IMPORTANT! If there is a risk of frost, the cooling system coolant must have sufficient antifreeze. See
chapter "Maintenance, Cooling system". A poorly charged battery may burst as a result of freezing.

Before stopping the engine

Let the engine run without load at 1300–1500 rpm for a few minutes
before stopping. This will even out the engine temperature and pre-
vent overheating.
IMPORTANT! This is especially important if the engine has
been operated at high engine speeds and/or loads.

Stopping

Disengage the engine (if possible).
Press in the stop button and hold it depressed until the engine
has stopped. Alternatively, turn the key to stop position "S". Re-
lease the key when the engine has stopped.

After stopping the engine

Inspect the engine and engine compartment for any leaks.
Close the fuel cocks.
Switch off the main switch if the engine will not be used for
some time.
Read off the operating hour counter. Carry out the required ser-
vice according to the maintenance schedule.

Emergency stop

If the engine cannot be stopped normally, it can be stopped by
moving the lever on the fuel injection pump backwards.
WARNING! Approaching or working on a running engine is
dangerous. Watch out for rotating components and hot sur-
faces.
