Bought for a day that may never come, which is exactly why it fails when it does. Batteries, fuel condition, and the transfer switch cause most no-starts, and only a loaded run proves any of it.
ChatterFix builds these as child assets under emergency generator, so failure history and PM completions attach to the component that actually failed — not just to the machine.
The failure modes worth designing a maintenance schedule around — in rough order of what they cost when they happen.
Recording that a PM was "done" tells you nothing next quarter. These are the readings that let you see a failure coming — and the reason ChatterFix captures measurements against the asset rather than just completions.
The parts whose absence turns a short repair into a long outage.
The PMs ChatterFix schedules against this equipment, with intervals and time estimates.
