EMERGENCY PROPULSION ENGINE SHUTDOWN
! CAUTION
Using the emergency engine shutdown control to stop an engine may cause serious
damage to the engine. The emergency engine shutdowns should only be used in a
genuine emergency such as an engine room fire or a runaway engine.
The emergency engine shutdown controls, when pulled, will trip the air shutdown flaps located between the air inlet housing
and the blower. When these flaps are closed, the air supply to the engines is secured. This lack of air will immediately shut
down the engines. This procedure should be used to shut down the engines only in a genuine emergency such as an engine
room fire or a runaway engine.
To shut down the engines in an emergency:
1.
Pull the applicable emergency engine shutdown control (28) on the control console.
