◆3.12.2 RETURN TO SERVICE

To return the unit to service after storage, proceed as follows:

1.Check the tag on the engine for oil viscosity and classification. Verify that the correct recommend- ed oil is used in the engine (see Section 1.5.3, Page 6). If necessary, drain and refill with the proper oil.

2.Check the state of the battery. Fill all cells of unsealed batteries to the proper level with dis- tilled water. DO NOT USE TAP WATER IN THE BATTERY. Recharge the battery to 100 percent state of charge, or, if defective, replace the battery.

3.Clean and wipe the entire generator.

4.Reconnect the battery. Observe battery polarity. Damage may occur if the battery is connected incorrectly.

5.Turn OFF all electrical loads. Add fuel, if neces- sary, and then start the engine.

6.Allow the unit to warm up thoroughly.

7.Apply electrical loads to at least 50 percent of the unit’s rated wattage capacity.

8.When the engine is thoroughly warmed up, shut it down.

9.Your generator is now ready for service.
