|
Stopping the engine immediately after it has been working under load, can result in overheating and accelerated wear of the engine components. Avoid accelerating the engine prior to shutting it down. Avoiding hot engine shutdowns will maximize turbocharger shaft and bearing life. |
Note: Individual applications will have different control systems. Ensure that the shutoff procedures are understood. Use the following general guidelines in order to stop the engine.
- Remove the load from the engine. Reduce the engine speed (rpm) to low idle. Allow the engine to idle for 5 minutes in order to cool the engine.
Note: The engine will quietly run in idle speed during the cool down period. Ensure that the engine has no rpm before opening the enclosure.
- Stop the engine after the cool down period according to the shutoff system on the engine and turn the ignition key switch to the OFF position. If necessary, refer to the instructions that are provided by the OEM.
