I oversee buildings and grounds maintenance for a local Town and we have two large standby generators. I'm going to assume the maintenance of them as I saw the bill from an outside contractor to do the work and my department can do the same for more than 75% less cost. They are powered by large John Deere 6 cylinder turbos and do a test run cycle once a week, running for about 20 minutes.
My question is how often should these units be serviced if they don't have an extended run period between servicing? Is an annual oil change frequent enough? Open to any suggestions here. Thanks
