°C °F
Example 1:
Temperature below 26.7
°C(80° F)
Hydrometer Reading 1.250
Electrolyte Temperature
--6.7
°C(20° F)
Subtract .024 Specific Gravity
Corrected Specific Gravity is 1.226
Example 2:
Temperature above 26.7
°C(80° F)
Hydrometer Reading 1.235
Electrolyte Temperature
37.8
°C (100°F)
Add .008 Specific Gravity
Corrected Specific Gravity is
1.243
The temperature correction amounts to about .004 (4 points) of
specific gravity for each 5.5°C(10°F) change in electrolyte
temperature.

1. Run the generator set for a minimum of 30 minutes
to bring it to normal operating temperature.
2. Stop the generator set.
3. With the engine still warm, drain the oil from the
crankcase.
4. Remove and replace the oil filter.
5. Refill the crankcase with oil suited to the climate.
6. Run the generator set for two minutes to distribute
the clean oil.
7. Stop the generator set.
8. Check the oil level and adjust, if needed.
2.8.2 Fuel System
Prepare the fuel system for storage as follows:
