Maintenance Tips

• Run Weekly Exercise Cycle
  Ensure automatic self-test runs (~20 min) to keep engine lubricated and system ready for outages.
• Change Oil & Filters on Schedule
  Follow manufacturer intervals for oil, oil filter, and air filter to maintain efficiency and engine life.
• Check Battery & Charger Monthly
  Inspect terminals, voltage, and corrosion for reliable fast-start performance.
• Inspect ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch)
  Verify 100A ATS operation, wiring integrity, and smooth transfer during simulated outages.
• Monitor Fuel System (NG/LP)
  Check gas pressure, regulators, and connections for stable and consistent power output.
• Clean Air Intake & Enclosure
  Keep vents clear of dust and debris to prevent overheating and airflow restriction.
• Use App Connect Monitoring
  Track alerts, runtime, and system status remotely for proactive maintenance.
• Test Under Load Periodically
  Simulate real power demand to confirm voltage stability and transfer reliability.
• Inspect Electrical Connections
  Tighten breakers, terminals, and grounding points for safe operation.
