This generator start up and inspection checklist guides operators through safe power up and routine verification steps. It covers visual checks for cleanliness, fuel, oil, coolant, battery condition, and hours, plus site specific generator selection. The workflow details HOA switch positions, timing a 15 minute run, waiting for a complete stop, and returning controls to auto or remote. It prompts users to capture any issues, alarms, reasons for early shutdown, and to secure doors after testing. Suitable for facilities and utility teams managing standby or portable generators across buildings, including healthcare sites.
