The problem you describe is a phenomenon called afterboil. When you stop a hot engine without a cool down period, the latent heat in the block causes the coolant to boil down inside the engine causing pressure to build until it reaches the rated pressure of the cap. Once that pressure is reached or passed, the cap allows coolant to escape along with some steam.
I presume your machine has a diesel engine. Most diesels require a 5-minute idle to cool down before you stop them. Not doing so can result in problems more serious than afterboil. Problems like cracked blocks, cracked liners, and seized pistons. Turbochargers also do not like to be shut down hot.
