OPERATION
2. With the engine running at idle, place the safety stop
switch lever in the OFF position (Figure 33). Verify that
the engine shuts off. If the engine continues to run,
replace the centrifugal safety stop switch.
Figure 33. Centrifugal Safety Stop Switch (OFF)
3. Place the safety stop switch lever in the ON position,
restart the engine, and let it idle.
4. Stand behind the handle in the operator's position
(Figure 34) and spin the handle to the right, simulating
a runaway condition. Centrifugal force should throw
the safety switch outward to the OFF position, thus
shutting off the engine.
