C.UNIT STORAGE
Certain precautions must be taken if a Mobile Light
System is to be stored for a long period of time. The
unit must be stored in a dry location to prevent the
generator winding from drawing moisture. The unit
should also be thoroughly cleaned prior to storage.
For engine storage procedures, consult your local
Yanmar or Lister engine dealer. They have certain
procedures that must be followed in order to prevent
engine damage, i.e. cylinder rust and injector, injector
pump deterioration.
MAINTENANCE
The ultimate aim of any preventive maintenance pro-
gram is to maintain the equipment in optimum condi-
tion, either in service or ready for service, for the
maximum amount of time during the useful life of the
equipment. The detection of faults before they develop
into major sources of difficulty will decrease the inci-
dence of repair. To this end, a regular schedule of
cleaning and inspection will go far toward assuring
trouble-free operation. Personnel responsible for
maintenance should set up a schedule for inspection,
and cleaning at intervals calculated to keep the equip-
ment in good condition. In making up a schedule, keep
the following in mind:
A. New equipment must be carefully monitored
until extended operation has demonstrated that it is
performing satisfactorily.
