NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME IN THE BATTERY

STORAGE AREA. AVOID STRIKING SPARKS NEAR

THE BATTERY. A BATTERY CAN EXPLODE IF A

FLAME OR SPARK IGNITES THE HYDROGEN GAS

THE BATTERY EMITS WHILE BEING CHARGED.

AC Electrical System Maintenance

Periodically inspect all wiring for nicks, chaﬁng, brittleness,

improper support, etc. Examine the shore power cord closely

for cracks in the insulation and corrosion in electrical connec-

tors. Spraying receptacles and electrical connections with an

electrical contact cleaner or a metal and electrical protector will

reduce corrosion and improve electrical continuity.

Inspect all wiring for proper support, sound insulation, and

tight terminals, paying particular attention to portable appli

ance cords and plugs.

The entire AC circuitry, especially the shore power cord, should

be seasonally tested for proper continuity by an experienced

electrician. This will detect any shorts, open wires, or ground

faults. Ground fault interrupts should be tested periodically

to ensure proper operation by pressing the test/reset buttons

in the center of face plate. The polarity indicator system also

should be inspected 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 ventilation, maintenance

of the fuel system, ignition system, cooling system, lubrication

system and the AC alternator.

Maintenance schedules and procedures are outlined in your

generator owner’s manual. They should be followed exactly.

CORROSION ALLOWED TO BUILD ON THE

ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS CAN CAUSE A POOR

CONNECTION RESULTING IN SHORTS, GROUND

FAULTS OR POOR GROUND CONNECTIONS.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS SHOULD CHECKED AT

LEAST ANNUALLY AND CLEANED AS REQUIRED.

DO NOT ALLOW CORROSION TO BUILD ON

CONNECTIONS.

THE AC AND DC ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS ALWAYS

SHOULD BE DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER

SOURCE BEFORE INSPECTING OR SERVICING THE

SYSTEM. NEVER SERVICE ANY COMPONENT OF AN

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WHILE IT IS ENERGIZED.
