EVERY 300 HOURS:
•
Check and if necessary replace the impeller of
the water pump.

Replace the fuel filter
Replacement depends on the condition of the

•
Replace the impeller of the water pump.
EVERY 1000 HOURS:

Check lubricating oil pressure
•
Clean and check or replace fuel injector nozzles
and check injection pressure.
•
Check the air filter element:
The air is taken in via the cover on the alternator.
Below this cover is a spongy material which filters
the air and holds some electrical components
which are cooled by the inlet air. This filter does
not require regular maintenance. Only in very
dusty circumstances this filter should be cleaned.
The spongy material can be washed in solvent or
replaced.
•
Check and clean radiator with compressed air.
When the generator set runs less than 100
hours a year the oil should be changed yearly
