SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE

For maximum engine life, Yanmar
recommends that when shutting the
engine down, you allow the engine to
idle, without load, for 5 minutes. This
will allow the engine components that
operate at high temperatures, such as
exhaust system, to cool slightly before
the engine itself is shut down.

Preparing To Stop Engine

( 3 ) Follow these steps to shut down the engine:
1. Disengage the PTO.
2. Set the engine speed control to its lowest
setting.

3. Run the engine at low idle speed or run
without load for at least five minutes before
you shut it down.

Set Engine Speed Control to STOP

If the engine continues to run after you
position the engine speed control to the
STOP position, turn the fuel cock to the
CLOSED position.
Several types of engine speed controls are
used in L-N engine applications. The
following procedures are for three typical
applications. Refer to the operating
instructions for the driven machine.
1. If your engine speed control is similar to
