5 Maintenance Generator
Every 1000 operating hours.
General
Cleaning the generator
The generator and AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) should be kept
as clean as possible. Many electrical faults can be caused by dirt collect-
ing. Remove any dirt and dust from the generator. Blow through the
generator using oil-free compressed air. Take care no dust is blown into
the windings. The inside and outside of the generator should always be
kept free of water, oil and dirt.
Check that all electrical connections are correctly and firmly fixed.
The bearing is sealed and lubricated for life, so requires no further
maintenance.
W
arning
NEVER work on the generator when it is running.
If it is necessary to check output voltage - with the generator running -
it should
only be done by someone who is competent to work on ‘live’
equipment. The connections carry mains voltage and are normally ‘live’
in relation to Earth.
