Transporting And Storing The Generating Set; Repairing Minor Faults - SDMO PHOENIX 6300 Manual De Utilización Y Mantenimiento

5. Transporting and storing the generating set

5.1. Transport and handling conditions
Before transporting the generating set, check that the bolts are correctly tightened, close the fuel tap (if fitted) and disconnect the
battery (if fitted). The generating set should be transported in its normal operating position; never lay it on its side. A pump unit should
be handled gently and brusque movements should be avoided. Ensure that the place where it is to be stored or used is carefully
prepared beforehand.
5.2. Storage conditions
This procedure for storing the generating set or protecting it over the winter must be respected if the generating set is not used for a
prolonged period (over 2 months). The generating set should be stored in its normal operating position; never lay it on its side.
