The genset may need more cranking during the
initial start to prime the fuel system. If the gen-
set fails to start, see the
Troubleshooting Guide
in the Operator’s Manual.
2. After the genset starts, check for fuel leaks. If
any leaks are found, stop the genset immedi-
ately, close the fuel supply valve (if equipped)
and have the leak(s) repaired. Make sure that
the fuel lines do not touch anything that can
damage them.
WARNING
Fuel presents the hazard of ex-
plosion or fire that can result in severe per-
sonal injury or death. If a fuel leak is found,
stop the genset and have the leak repaired
immediately.
WARNING
A hot genset can cause severe
burns. Always allow the genset to cool
down before performing service.
3. Examine the exhaust system for leaks. If any
leaks are found, stop the genset and have the
exhaust system repaired immediately. Make
sure the exhaust pipe terminates outside the
perimeter of the vehicle.
WARNING
Exhaust gas presents the haz-
ard of severe personal injury or death. In-
spect the exhaust system audibly and visu-
ally. With the genset running, inspect the
muffler. Do not operate the genset if it is ex-
cessively noisy. Have any leaks repaired
immediately.
4. Perform the Break-In Procedure described in
the Operator’s Manual.
WARNING
Accidental starting of the gen-
set during maintenance procedures can
cause severe personal injury or death. Dis-
connect the genset starting battery, nega-
tive (-) cable first, before performing main-
tenance.
5. Move the Start/Stop switch to the STOP (O)
position to stop the genset.

mote control connections, correct if necessary,
and restart the genset.
