7.1. Reminder of use
The maintenance interval frequency and the operations to be carried out are outlined in the maintenance schedule, given as a guideline.
N.B. the environment in which the generating set is operating determines this schedule.
If the generating set is used in extreme conditions, shorter intervals between maintenance procedures should be observed
These maintenance intervals only apply to generating sets running on fuel, oil and coolant which conform to the specifications given
in this manual.
