ABSTRACT:
A simplified and reliable shut-down device for stationary diesel engines and the like employs a solenoid whose armature is carried directly by a manually operable reset rod having a locking element therein for cooperation with a vibration-proof latch means on the shell or casing of the solenoid. A push-pull cable attached to the reset rod serves to pull the rack or other fuel control member of the engine to immediately shut down the engine responsive to spring force on the reset rod opposing the holding force of the solenoid. The device is electrically fail-safe, as any interruption of electrical power to the solenoid coil will result in immediate engine shut down.
