N O TE
The electrolyte level must be rechecked approx-
imately 30 minutes after initial filling as the
platas end separator will absorb the solution,
thus resulting in a low level. If the battery is not
to be used within 12 hours after initial filling, it
should be put on a charger and brought up to
the correct specific gravity. Test batteries as
deecribed in paragraph 4-25c, for the ambient
temperature in effect.
(3.1) On ASK equipped generators, inspect ASK for damage.
Check that exhaust plenum is clear of debris.
