STOPPING THE GENERATOR

Normal Operation

During normal operation, use the following steps to stop
your generator:
1. Remove any connected loads from the control panel
receptacles.
2. Allow the generator to run at "no load" to reduce and
stabilize engine and alternator temperatures.
3. Choose from options below to stop the generator
(see Figure 13):
• Position the engine control switch to STOP
• Hold push button start until the generator stops
• Hold the STOP button on the remote start key
fob (Note: The generator will run for an additional
8 seconds as it goes through a cool down cycle
before shutting off.)
Figure 13 - Stopping the generator
NOTE If you plan to store the generator after use,
stop the generator by turning the fuel shutoff
valve to the OFF position and allow the fuel to be
consumed from the carburetor.
4. If running off of propane then close the propane
valve. If running on gas turn the fuel shutoff valve to
the OFF position.

During an Emergency

If there is an emergency and the generator must be
stopped quickly, position the engine control switch to the
STOP position immediately.
