or heavy as most engines (approx. 250 lbs) so it can be

not topple off the bench and that the bench is also secure 'and
can not tip over.
Set the generator breakers and panel switches in the off
position. Disconnect the AC wiring connections at the
terminal block/circuit breaker and unplug the harness at the
control pane. Disconnect the battery cable connections and
the engine ground cables.

water components. Separate the exhaust at the water injection
