Generator Servicing
Regular generator servicing is important to ensure it starts and operates correctly when backup power is required.
Generators must be serviced based on both:
- Operating hours
- Time since the last service
A generator may still require servicing even if it has only run for a small number of hours.
Regular ChecksCheck the generator regularly for:
- Fuel level
- Oil and coolant levels
- Starter battery condition
- Active alarms or warning lights
- Fuel, oil or coolant leaks
- Blocked vents or air filters
- Unusual noise, smoke or vibration
- Pest or vermin damage
Keep the generator area clean, dry and well ventilated.
Service RequirementsServicing may include:
- Engine oil and filter replacement
- Fuel filter replacement
- Air filter inspection or replacement
- Cooling system checks
- Starter battery testing
- Fuel system inspection
- Auto-start testing
- Generator load testing
Always follow the generator manufacturer’s service schedule.
Service RecordsKeep records of:
- Service dates
- Generator running hours
- Parts replaced
- Repairs completed
- Starter battery replacement
- Any faults or alarms
Failure to maintain the generator may affect its reliability and warranty coverage.
Contact MyEnergy if the generator fails to start, repeatedly stops or shows an active fault.
