Use of Fuel Shutoff Valve?

Hello, I have seen a lot of posts that say "make sure it has a fuel shutoff valve", "I added a fuel shutoff valve", but am not sure exactly what this is for? The manual doesn't really mention it. How should it be used? Is it solely for if you want to keep gas in your tank during the summer, you turn off the valve when summerizing the machine and let the carb/line run dry? Or should I be using it every time I use the blower? Sorry for the cluelessness! Thanks,
Dan
