* Exercise the generator. There are several reasons why you should start and exercise the generator set on a regular basis. Moisture build up can cause damage to your generator. When you exercise your generator it heats up the generator windings and eliminates this moisture build up. This monthly exercise regime also lubricates all of the engine seals and components and helps to prevent carbon build up. When you exercise the generator it should have a minimum 1/2 rated load on it, and it should run for at least two hours every month. Check your generator owner’s manual for load ratings specific to your unit.
* Add a fuel stabilizer to the motorhomes or generator’s gas tank and run the generator long enough for the stabilizer to get through the entire fuel system. This will help prevent gas related problems on generators, like not starting or surging. Fuel stabilizers can protect the fuel system for up to six months or longer, but keep in mind the importance of exercising the generator too.
