Various things can cause the unit to stop. Check the fuel and that the mixture ratio is correct. Remove and clean the spark plug. If you have a new one try that even if the plug looks OK it can still fail to spark when under pressure in the engine. Check for a spark when you turn it over. If the unit has been running and is hot make sure that the choke is open. Problems which occur after a reasonable duration of use are the carburettors can give trouble and need cleaning. This is due to ethanol levels gumming up the works. A new gasket set and cleaning should fix it. Look for Utube videos on how to do it. I have placed a link if that helps to the user guide.
