How to turn off Satoh S370D

[mddrcefish]

HI...I'm helping a benefit garage sale that will have a Satoh S370D available for sale. We were able to start it today, but could not find a way to turn it off. Had to put it in 3rd gear, apply brakes and stall it out.

Any clues as to how to turn it off?

Bonus question: Any idea how much this thing might be worth? ITs pretty beat up.

Thanks.

Not real familiar with your tractor.

I would look on the injector pump for a lever or a place where a cable is supposed to hook up and moving the lever will shut off the fuel.

The normal place to turn it off is a knob to pull or push below the steering wheel dash area.

Keep in mind this is not a fuel shut off valve off of the bottom of the fuel tank.

Hey if it drives and stops and the hydraulics work ask $2k for it. Find the shut off switch first.

My father had a Mitsubishi MT-372DT Beaver, which looked like the same tractor as yours. It was shut off by moving the fuel feed lever all the way past the slowest speed position. He always had to remember to move the lever away from this position or it would not start again.

The Beaver is a simple little worker. No fancy fuel shut off solenoids and such. In order to shut it down, you push the throttle lever all the way forward holding it as far as it will go until the machiine shuts down. That's the way ours has been since we bought it new 30+ years ago.

We have the same loader on ours as well.

Thanks to all of your for your help. I'll try pushing the throttle to its lowest speed to see if that works and let you know if it works.
