Newbie making elementary error would be very grateful for enlightenment. This compiles:

set remoteMachine to "eppc://username:password@OtherMac.local"

tell application "Finder" of machine remoteMachine to close front window​

but this doesn't:

set remoteMachine to "eppc://username:password@OtherMac.local"

tell application "Finder" of machine remoteMachine to shut down​

I get a syntax error, "Expected end of line, etc. but found application constant or consideration". I know I'm missing something very simple but Google's been no help.
