Here's what i have in my manual (Yak-52):
"ATTENTION! It is forbidden to stop the engine:
- by closing the fire cock, with fuel consumption within the carburator (to avoid the flareback and the fire)."
"After the engine stop... the fire cock is closed when the airplane is in the park, after flights performance".
And here's an unrelated question: Does anyone know how to adjust the VSI? Mine reads a little negative when it should be zero. Is it that screw on the bottom? I tried turning that and it was pretty stiff.

VSI adjustment - unscrew the screw knob at the bottom center and PULL OUT.
It will lock into a keyway and you will be able to move the pointer up or
down. When you are finished making the adjustment PUSH IN on the knob then
tighten the screw back in.
Fire control handle - that is true (what you have in the manual), but in an
emergency situation involving fire or any kind of emergency engine shut
down, I personally would not hesitate to pull the fuel shut off.

Scooter,
I can't remember but if you remove the unit you may find a grub scren that
locks the adjuster, that is typical Russian design.
Just a guess though

Fire is a formidable force that demands vigilance and preparedness in every facet of life, from residential safety to industrial operations. Effective fire prevention and response strategies are crucial, underscored by the indispensable role of commercial fire alarm services. These services not only ensure early detection but also prompt action, mitigating potential disasters and safeguarding lives and property. Whether in bustling urban centers or rural communities, the installation and maintenance of reliable fire alarm systems serve as a cornerstone in fire safety protocols, offering peace of mind and resilience against the unpredictable nature of fire emergencies.
