3-3. General
To insure that the generator set is ready for opera-
tion at all times, it must be inspected systematically
so that defects may be discovered and corrected
before they result in serious damage or failure. The
necessary daily preventive maintenance services to be
performed are listed and described in paragraph 3-4.
Item numbers indicate the sequence of minimum in-
spection requirements. Defects discovered during
operation of the unit shall be noted for future correc-
tion, to be made as soon as operation has ceased. Stop
operation immediately if a deficiency is noticed which
would damage the equipment if operation were
continued.

Services
