Stop the engine using the following steps:
1. While holding cutting wheel off ground,
release the operator presence bar, and push
the Engine On/off Switch to the OFF
position. Wait until the cutting wheel
completely stops.
2. Use the Clutch On/off Switch to disengage
clutch. Lower the cutting wheel so it is
resting against the ground.
3. Use Brake Lever to set brake before leaving
the controls, particularly if you are on an
incline.
4. Turn Engine Key Switch to OFF position.
5. Allow the engine to cool for at least 5
minutes before releasing brake and moving to

a fire hazard.
