OS 285

An experienced electrician should season-

ally test the entire AC circuitry, especially the

shore power cord. This detects shorts, open

wires or ground faults. Test ground fault

interrupters periodically to ensure proper

operation by pressing the test/reset buttons

in the center of faceplate. Inspect the polar-

ity indicator system for proper operation.

The engine maintenance required on the

generator is similar in many ways to the

main engines. The most important factors to

the generator's longevity are proper ventila-

tion, maintenance of the fuel system, ignition

system, cooling system, lubrication system

and the AC alternator.

Outlined in your generator owner’s manual

are the maintenance schedules and proce-

dures. Follow them exactly.

! WARNING

Corrosion allowed to build on the

electrical connectors can cause a

poor connection, resulting in shorts,

ground faults or poor ground connec-

tions. Check electrical connectors

annually and clean as required. Do not

allow corrosion to build on connec-

tions.

! WARNING

Always disconnect the AC and DC

electrical systems from power source

before inspecting or servicing. Never

service any component of an ener-

gized electrical system.
