If use of the generator is infrequent, "exercise" the generator once a month
by operating it at approximately half the maximum rated output for two hours.
This "exercise" will help promote better starting, more reliable operation and
longer engine life. This procedure drives off moisture, lubricates the internal
engine parts and replaces the old stale fuel with a fresh supply. It also promotes
removing oxides from the electrical switches and contacts.
NOTE: Avoid short run periods of the generator set. Run the
generator set under a load for a minimum of one-half hour.

The AC distribution panel is located in the bedroom. The main AC panel
120 Volt circuit breakers receive power from the transfer switch, which is pow-
ered by either shore power or the on board generator. Power is introduced into
the panel to the 50 Amp MAIN breaker first, followed by power being fed to
the individual branch circuit breakers. The panel label describes the breaker
layout and the item, outlet or appliance to which they pertain.
WARNING: This panel contains high voltage which can cause
serious injury or death. Before beginning any work or test-
ing procedures involving the electric panels, or any of the
branch circuits, be sure the motorhome is unplugged from
shore power, the generator is not running and the inverter
is in the OFF position. Certain testing procedures can
require the AC power to be on. Only qualified personnel,
or personnel with electrical backgrounds, should attempt
any testing procedures.
