3.4.1 Engine Storage

1) If the engine is to be put out of service for a long period of time, it is necessary to
drain out fuel, oil and coolant when the engine is still warm after stopping the
engine.
2) Disconnect the start battery cable (the cathode first).
3) Remove sludge and dust from outer surface of the engine. Smear anti-rust oil
onto exposed machined surface of the parts of the engine. It is forbidden to smear
the rubber plastic components with oil.
4) Wrap up the intake and exhaust manifolds properly with plastic cloth in order to
keep the dust from getting in.
5) The engine should be stored in the room of good ventilation, low humidity and
without dust. It is prohibited to store the engine in the room which has stored
chemicals. The preservation according to the above procedure could be well for
three months. Then, repeat this procedure over this period.
6) Attach a warning tag on the engine which contains the following information:
Storage Date; Coolant has been drained; Engine is forbidden to operate.
7) Remove the anti-rust oil before the set is put into use.

3.4.2 Generator Storage

The moisture tends to condense in the windings when the generator is in storage.
In order to minimize condensation, store the generator in the dry storage area. If
possible, use space heaters to keep the windings dry. It is essential to check the
insulation of the windings after removing the generator from storage.

3.4.3 Battery Storage

When storing the batteries, it should receive a refreshing charge every 4 weeks
up to a fully charged condition.

3.5 Electrical Requirements

3.5.1 Batteries
Generator sets use electrical starting system. The power supply of the starting
system is 12 or 24VDC battery. The starting voltage is determined by the brand and
power of the engine. In order to reduce the starting current and the size of the cable,
high-power engine uses 24VDC.
Never disconnect the charging unit circuit or battery cable from the battery when the
charging unit is operating. The spark may cause fires.
3.5.2 AC Power Output Wiring
All wiring must be in accordance with applicable electrical codes. Wires must be
of adequate size, properly insulated and supported in an approved manner. Ensure
that all devices are properly grounded.
Accidental contact with electrical equipment can cause severe injury and death if
