Not trying to be a smart allec and state the obvious, but just be honest with the guy. If the guy can't understand and still be agreeable, friendly, or whatever, then the best thing he can do is go on his merry way.
I know that may sound harsh or whatever you want to call it but when your talking about any kind of equipment, the way I have always looked at it, MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE AROUND THE WORK AREA COME FIRST, next is the safety of the equipment itself... Heck, SAFETY IN GENERAL IS THE ONLY PRIORITY.... When it comes right down to it, it's easy enough for an experienced operator to have a problem, much less someone that isn't an operator by any stretch of the imagination.
If someone can't understand that train of thought then they have no business operating any type of equipment. Doing so is basically putting you, the operator, any other bystander, any object in the area, and the machine all in jeopardy. Any one of those is reason enough to tell someone NO, no sympothy, no questions, no arguments needed.....just NO.......If they can't handle that then they aren't the kind of person I want to be working around when they are operating a piece of equipment. I've been around equipment all my life and one thing I learned early, the equipment feels no pain, but I do. As a result I refuse to work around anyone operating any kind of machine unless I know they know what they are doing and that I can trust them not to do anything that might hurt or kill me.........
SAFETY IS ALWAYS THE NUMBER ONE PRIORITY.....AND NO IS ALWAYS OK WHEN IT'S A SAFETY RELATED ISSUE.......

If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
