Alternator Inspect
Perkins recommends a scheduled inspection of the alternator. Inspect the alternator for loose connections
and proper battery charging. Inspect the ammeter(If equipped) during engine operation in order to ensure
proper battery performance and/or proper performance of the electrical system .Make repairs, as required.
Check the alternator and the battery charger for proper operation.If the batteries are properly charged ,the
ammeter reading should be very near Zero. All batteries should be kept warm because temperature affects
the cranking power. If the battery is too colt,the battery will not crank the engine.When the engine is not run
for long periods of time or if the engine is run for short periods.The batteries may not fully charge. A battery
with a low charge will freeze more easily than a battery with a full charge.
