  1. Pull PTO clutch lever rearward (away from engine) to disengage clutch, if equipped.

    IMPORTANT: Before stopping an engine that has been operating at working load, idle engine at least 2 minutes at 1000—1200 rpm to cool hot engine parts. If an Exhaust Filter Cleaning has just been performed, increase engine idle time to 4 minutes. If service work is going to be performed on the Exhaust Filter, increase engine idle time to 10 minutes.

    Engines in generator set applications where the ECU is locked at a specified speed and no slow idle function is available, run engine for at least 2 minutes at fast idle and no load. If an Exhaust Filter Cleaning has just been performed, increase engine idle time to 4 minutes. If service work is going to be performed on the Exhaust Filter, increase engine idle time to 10 minutes

  2. Run engine at 1000—1200 rpm for at least 2 minutes to cool. If an Exhaust Filter Cleaning has just been performed, increase engine idle time to 4 minutes. If service work is going to be performed on the Exhaust Filter, increase engine idle time to 10 minutes

    Panels with high-low speed select rocker switch (B) only: Set rpm using bump speed enable switch (C) with speed select rocker switch (D).

    Panels with optional analog throttle (E): Set either high-low speed select switch (B) or analog throttle control (E) to slow idle, and set desired speed with remaining control.

    NOTE: Engine control unit (ECU) reads the higher of the high-low speed select rocker switch or the analog throttle speed settings.

  3. Push in on analog throttle control handle (if equipped) so that engine goes to slow idle, or set slow speed with high-low speed select rocker switch.

  4. Turn key start switch (A) to “OFF” position to stop the engine. Remove ignition key.

    IMPORTANT: Make sure that exhaust stack rain cap (F) is installed when engine is not running. This will prevent water and dirt from entering engine.
