To return the unit to service after storage, proceed as follows:
1. Verify that utility power is turned off and that the AUTO/OFF/
MANUAL switch is set to OFF.
2. Check the tag on the engine for oil viscosity and classification.
Verify that the correct recommended oil is used in the engine
(see the Engine Oil Recommendations section). If necessary,
drain and refill with the proper oil.
3. Check the state of the battery. Fill all cells of unsealed batter-
ies to the proper level with distilled water. DO NOT USE TAP
WATER IN THE BATTERY. Recharge the battery to 100 per-
cent state of charge, or, if defective, replace the battery. See
"Specifications" for battery type and size. Install the battery
as outlined in "Battery Installation".

trol panel. Reconnect the battery. Observe battery polarity.

unit by moving the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to MANUAL.
Allow the unit to warm up thoroughly.

NOTE:
4.12.3 ACCESSORIES
There are performance enhancing accessories available for the
air-cooled generators.
• Cold Weather Kits are recommended in areas where tempera-
tures regularly fall below 32° F (0° C).
• Scheduled Maintenance Kits include all pieces necessary to
perform maintenance on the generator along with oil recom-
mendations.
• Auxiliary Transfer Switch Lockout enables any of the transfer
switches to completely lock out one large electrical load by
tying into its control system.
• A Fascia Skirt Wrap is standard on all 20kW units. It's avail-
able for all other current production air-cooled units. It snaps
together to provide a smoothing, contoured look as well as
rodent/insect protection.
• The Remote Monitor System is a wireless, indoor mounted,
box that indicates generator run status and allows for exercise
programing as well as provide maintenance reminders.
• Touch-up Paint Kits are very important to maintain the look and
integrity of the generator enclosure. These kits include touch-up
paint and instructions if the need should arise.
