PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

A rigorous program of scheduled periodic maintenance should
be established and maintained. Such a program, if adhered to
diligently, will provide added assurance that the power system
functions properly when it is needed.
Keeping a "Maintenance Log" is highly recommended. Such a
log should be a continuous record of repairs, parts replacements,
gauge and instrument readings during operational tests, etc.
The manufacturer recommends that a "Customer Maintenance
Inspection Agreement" be established between the user of this
equipment and the installing Authorized Service Dealer. Under this
agreement, (Part No. 053263), an Authorized Service Technician
performs prestart and engine running tests and checks at six-
month and one-year intervals. Ask an Authorized Service Dealer
about this agreement.
The tasks listed in the "Service Schedule" cover the minimum
recommended maintenance requirements for this equipment.
Note that many of the tests and checks listed in the schedule are
to be performed only by an Authorized Service Technician. Fluid
capacities and recommendations, as well as other applicable
specifications, are listed in "Specifications".
