SECTION 3 MAINTENANCE
3-1 Maintenance Schedule
Good maintenance is essential to safe, economical
and zero-failure operation, and is also good for
environment protection. Under hot or dusty operating
conditions some maintenance operations should be
performed more frequently, as indicated by the footnotes
to the table.
Keep a log of maintenance performed and the
hours run. Recording maintenance will help you
keep it regular and provide a basis for supporting
warranty claims.
Accidental starting of the generator
set during maintenance can cause severe
personal injury or death. Before performing
maintenance, disconnect the spark plug wire
from the spark plug.
A hot generator set can cause
severe burns. Always allow the generator set
to cool adequately before performing any
maintenance or service.
