Generator tray won't extend

[Greg Young]

Hi Ralph - is the switch integrated with the handle? There is a drip/noise panel under the rails that I'd have to remove to access the handle mechanism. I tried pushing the "in" switch and the pump actuated for a moment, so I'm guessing it's the cut off switch. Have repeatedly tried to push the handle all the way open. It seems to operate without any impediment so I think the switch is damaged or failed. Your thoughts and suggestions very much appreciated!

Thanks

Greg

Do you have the front lock handle on your gen set? There is a cut out

switch if the lock is not all the way open.
