Two customers called me asking help or info starting their generators. Both have batteries and it seemed from the description (nothing at all happening) that the battery was dead. The question: shouldn't the pull rope over ride a dead battery? One of my customers is knowledgeable as he owned an excavating and snow plow business. He has a 1 year old 8000kw Generac with a battery charger. I did an interlock for him last year and that was the only time he ran the thing. He noticed the charger was unplugged a week ago and plugged it in, but still nothing a week later. We both thought the pull should over ride the dead battery but I seem to recall this coming up before and needing the battery regardless. I told him call Generac and also try a full size battery charger. Any one know about the rope pull question?
