REGULAR INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
OF THE GENERATOR
It is essential to regularly inspect and maintain the generator to ensure serviceability
and long-term operation of the generator engine. Inspection types and intervals are
given in the table below.
- Stop the engine before performing any maintenance work.
If it is necessary for the engine to be running, make sure that the area
is ventilated. Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide.
