Water Level: - record the level of the water in radiator and the amount
of water added to radiator if it was needed.
Heaters: - feel the block heater inlet and outlet hoses to make

indicates charger charging at “Absorption” rate. Green LED
only indicates “Float” rate, battery is fully charged.
Battery Levels & Cables: - make sure batteries are full of water, cables are tight
and battery posts are clean.
Leaks: (Oil-Water-Fuel) - check all hoses and connections for dripping, tighten
hose clamps if needed.
Amps: - when the unit is running with load, record the amp reading.
Volts: - when the unit is running with load, record the volt reading.
Frequency: - when the unit is running with load, record the hertz reading.
Oil Pressure: - when the unit is running with load, record the oil pressure.
Water Temperature: - when the unit is running with load, record the water
temperature reading once stabilized.
BC Volts: - battery charger DC voltage reading.
RTM: - running time meter total should be recorded before each
test - this will allow you to determine if the unit has run
since the last exercise.
