Aproperly maintained generator can run smoothly for years - allowing you to get the most out of your investment and ensuring that you won’ t be left without power unexpectedly.
Check Fuel and Coolant Levels
How often should you change the fuel? lt depends onseveral factors, including the brand of your genset,climate and usage of your generator, etc. On average,it is recommended to change the generator oil after50 or 60 hours of first use.
Clean up the Fuel Tank
Cleaning the fuel tank is essential. lt helps preventvarious problems such as filter clogging and sedimentbuildup.
Stay Tuned for oil Level
As the oil acts both as a lubricant and as a cooler itshould not be at a level below the recommended level.The lack of cooling can cause the loss of oil pressure,generating increased temperature and causing risk forthe operation of the generator and the environment.
Test it Regularly
lt's a good idea to run your generator everymonth or so.This helps you pinpoint any
issues early on, such as odd smells or strangenoises. lt also keeps your generator lubricateand ensures the carburetor is working。
