SC 365i
Corrosion on the electrical connectors can
cause poor connections, shorts and ground
faults, and/or poor ground connections.
Check at least annually and clean as
required. DO NOT allow corrosion to build
on connections.
Inspect all terminals and make sure they are
tight.
Have the entire AC circuitry tested every
season by an experienced marine electri-
cian, especially the shore power cord. This
will detect any shorts, open wires or ground
faults. Also, have the polarity indicator sys-
tem inspected for proper operation.
Test outlets periodically by pressing the test/
reset buttons in the center of the face plate
to ensure proper operation.
The engine maintenance required on the
generator is similar to the main engines. The
most important factors to the generator's
longevity are proper ventilation, mainte-
nance of the fuel, ignition, cooling and lubri-
cation systems, and the AC alternator.
Maintenance schedules and procedures are
outlined in your generator owner’s manual,
follow them exactly.
