DA7000 SERIES GENERATORS • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #5 (01/20/11) — PAGE 27
INSPECTION/SETUP
When connecting battery do the following:
1. NEVER connect the battery cables to the battery
terminals when the Ignition Switch is in the START
position. ALWAYS make sure that the Ignition Switch
is in the OFF position when connecting the battery.
2. Place a small amount of battery terminal treatment
compound around both battery terminals. This will
ensure a good connection and will help prevent
corrosion around the battery terminals.
ALTERNATOR
The polarity of the alternator is negative grounding type.
When an inverted circuit connection takes place, the
circuit will be in short circuit instantaneously resulting the
alternator failure.
DO NOT put water directly on the alternator. Entry of water
into the alternator can cause corrosion and damage the
alternator.
WIRING
Inspect the entire generator for bad or worn electrical wiring
or connections. If any wiring or connections are exposed
(insulation missing) replace wiring immediately.
PIPING AND HOSE CONNECTION
Inspect all piping, oil hose, and fuel hose connections for
wear and tightness. Tighten all hose clamps and check
hoses for leaks.
If any hose (fuel or oil) lines are defective replace them
immediately.
NOTICE
If the battery cable is connected incorrectly, electrical
damage to the generator will occur. Pay close attention
to the polarity of the battery when connecting the battery.
CAUTION
Inadequate battery connections may cause poor
starting of the generator, and create other malfunctions.
