Just be aware that they may also have had to
"un-weld" some "stops" to slide the generator forward
in the manner you describe. (Hopefully, they did not
just pull the generator forward past the stops with
the forklift.) Regardless, it may be wise to ensure
they re-weld the "stops" as one can't rely on the
plunger arm to hold the generator in the closed
position when the coach makes a sudden stop.

While the owner will remain name-less, I saw a Bird
which made such a "quick" stop and the generator had
to be retrieved from the pavement and re-installed in
the Bird. To double-check might be called "an ounce
of prevention..."
