  • Page 18 To shut off the engine, cover the tip of the exhaust with a towel, then it will stop. If an emer- gency shut off is necessary, shut off the engine by pinching the fuel line to the carburetor. You should apply this technique only in case of emergency, as temporary pinched off fuel lines could cause the engine running too lean which could then damage the engine.
