Note: The engine may be equipped with a device for
cold starting. If the engine will be operated in very
cold conditions, then an extra cold starting aid may
be required. Normally, the engine will be equipped
with the correct type of starting aid for your region of
operation.

Engine Stopping
• Remove the load in increments.
• Open the circuit breaker.
• Allow the engine to run for five minutes to cool.
• Stop the engine.
Use the Emergency Stop Button (if equipped) ONLY
in an emergency situation. Do not use the
Emergency Stop Button for normal engine stopping.
After an emergency stop, DO NOT start the engine
until the problem that caused the emergency stop
has been corrected.
Stop the engine if an overspeed condition occurs
during the initial start-up of a new engine or an
engine that has been overhauled. This may be
accomplished by shutting off the fuel supply to the
engine and/or shutting off the air supply to the
engine.
To stop an electronically controlled engine, cut the
power to the engine.

Electrical System
Never disconnect any charging unit circuit or battery
circuit cable from the battery when the charging unit
is operating. A spark can cause the combustible
gases that are produced by some batteries to ignite.
To help prevent sparks from igniting combustible
gases that are produced by some batteries, the
negative “−” jump-start cable should be connected
last from the external power source to the negative
“−” terminal of the starting motor. If the starting motor
is not equipped with a negative “−” terminal, connect
the jump-start cable to the engine block.
Check the electrical wires daily for wires that are
loose or frayed. Tighten all loose electrical wires
before the engine is started. Repair all frayed
electrical wires before the engine is started. Refer to
the “Engine Starting” section of this Operation and
Maintenance Manual for specific starting instructions.
Grounding Practices

Typical example
Alternate Grounding Stud To Battery Ground
Correct grounding for the engine electrical system is
necessary for optimum engine performance and
reliability. Improper grounding will result in
uncontrolled electrical circuit paths and in unreliable
electrical circuit paths.
