SERVICE SCHEDULE
30 KW - 150 KW STANDBY GAS ENGINE DRIVEN GENERATOR SETS
The following is a recommended maintenance schedule for standby gas engine driven generator sets from 30kW to
150 kW in size. The established intervals in the schedule are the maximum recommended when the unit is used
in an average service application. They will need to be decreased (performed more frequently) if the unit is used
in a severe application. Use calendar time, from the previous maintenance interval to determine the next required
maintenance interval.
Service Maintenance Interval Information:
The various service maintenance intervals are designated by interval numbers as follows:
1 An early inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate when required and to identify any poten-
tial problem areas.
This inspection may be performed by the end user providing the following safety steps are taken to prevent
the engine from starting automatically without warning:
To prevent injury, perform the following steps in the order indicated before starting any maintenance:
• Disable the generator set from starting and/or connecting to the load by setting the control panel Auto/Off/
Manual switch to the “OFF” position.
• Remove the 15 amp control panel fuse.
• Turn off the battery charger.
• Remove the negative battery cable.
The battery charger must be turned off BEFORE removing the battery cable to prevent an over current condition
from burning out sensitive control panel components and circuits.
Following all maintenance, reverse these steps to insure the unit is returned to standby setup for normal
operation when required.
2 A wear-in service inspection of the generator set to insure it is ready to operate and carry the load when
required, and to identify any potential problem areas.

and to identify any potential problem areas.

to accomplish and should be performed only by an Authorized Service Dealer.
