The Transfer switch is designed to be maintenance free under normal usage. However, inspection and
maintenance checks should be made on a regular basis. Maintenance will consist mainly of keeping the transfer
switch clean.
Visual inspection should be done at least once a month. Access to the transfer switch must not be obstructed.
Keep 3 feet (92 cm) clearance around the transfer switch. Check for an accumulation of dirt, moisture and/ or
corrosion on and around the enclosure, loose parts/ hardware cracks and/ or discoloration to insulation, and
damaged or discolored components.
Exercise the MMTS at least once every three months using the Functional Testing procedure unless a power
outage occurs and the portable generator has gone through a Manual sequence. Contact a licensed electrician to
inspect and clean the inside of the enclosure and other components of your home generator system at least once
a year.
