MAINTENANCE

2.Flush the radiator by running clean tap water through radiator until signs of rust and dirt are removed. DO NOT clean radiator core with any objects, such as a screwdriver.

3.Check hoses for softening and kinks. Check clamps for signs of leakage.

4.Tighten coolant drain plug and reinstall the overflow tank.

5.Fill with coolant as recommended by the engine manufacturer.

6.Close radiator cap tightly.

WARNING

Allow engine to cool when fl ushing out radiator. Flushing the radiator while hot could cause serious burns from water or steam.

RADIATOR CLEANING

The radiator (Figure 36) should be sprayed (cleaned) with a high pressure washer when excessive amounts of dirt and debris have accumulated on the cooling fins or tube. When using a high pressure washer, stand at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) away from the radiator to prevent damage to the fins and tube.

GENERATOR STORAGE

For long term storage of the generator the following is recommended:

Drain the fuel tank completely. Treat with a fuel stabilizer if necessary.

Completely drain the oil from the crankcase and refill if necessary with fresh oil.

Clean the entire generator, internal and external.

Cover the generating set and store in a clean, dry place.

Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery.

Make sure engine coolant is at proper level.

If generator is mounted on a trailer, jack trailer up and place on blocks so tires do not touch the ground or block and completely remove the tires.
