To correct, please see instructions that follow:
- Disconnect positive battery cable from battery using 1/2โ wrench. (Fig. 1)
- Remove metal cover around disconnect switch to expose positive distribution connection (Fig. 2)
- Cut any zip ties that secure the electric battery harness. Loosen and remove distribution nut using 9/16โ wrench.
- Remove electric brake harness from positive distribution lug.
- Reinstall distribution nut and secure using 9/16โ wrench.
- Replace metal cover around disconnect switch.
- Remove nut from positive battery cable battery terminal using 1/2โ wrench
- Install electric battery harness ring terminal onto battery terminal bolt and reinstall nut.
- Install positive battery cable terminal on battery positive post and secure nut tightly on battery terminal using 1/2โ wrench.
- Verify electric brake solenoids are operating with battery disconnect in the OFF position.
Chronology :
Doosan Bobcat North America, Inc. received a field report on 10/4/2023 of a portable generator with both electric brake and battery disconnect options that had the electric brake harness connected to the positive distribution post of the battery disconnect switch instead of the positive battery cable terminal.
Based on the field report, Doosan Bobcat North America, Inc. initiated an internal investigation and determined a defect with the connection point of the electrical brake harness on units with both electric brakes and battery disconnect options and reported NHTSA Recall 23V859.
Further investigation revealed that the issue with the electric brake harness being connected to the positive distribution post of the battery disconnect switch extends to models G25-G50 built beginning 10/31/2015 and to model G70WDO-T4F built between 12/14/2016 and 8/31/2023.
The investigation has ruled out this issue in air compressor models and on generator models larger than G70WDO-T4F

SAFETY NOTICE – PLEASE READ IMMEDIATELY
March 23, 2024
Doosan Bobcat North America, Inc. is sending this Safety Notice to certain owners of various models of portable generators built between 2015 and 2023 that have both electric brake and battery disconnect options installed and are listed in Technical Service Bulletin 12-23-8 Rev. A. This notice alerts owners to a safety concern explained below.
For the units with both electric brake and battery disconnect options installed and listed on this bulletin, it has been identified that the electric brake harness connection may be connected to the positive distribution lug of the battery disconnect switch instead of the positive battery cable terminal. If connected in this manner and the battery disconnect switch is in the off position, the emergency electric brakes will be deenergized. Deenergized brakes will not engage, increasing the risk of a crash.
We are reporting this issue to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Federal Regulations require you to complete this safety campaign and per the Doosan Bobcat North America, Inc. Warranty Policy and Procedure Manual, you are obligated to complete the requested work within 60 days.
We request that you immediately:
1. Read the attached Safety Recall addressed to owners.
2. Contact all owners of affected portable generators and arrange to correct their machines. This will be done at no cost to the owner. Inform them that the equipment can be operated in a stationary position but must NOT be towed until the corrections are made.
3. Stop Sale/Stop Rental on all new and used portable generator affected by this campaign until they have been corrected.
4. Stop towing the affected equipment until the corrections are made.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions about this Safety Recall, please call Doosan Bobcat Portable Power Technical Services at 1-800-633-5206 Option #2
Yours truly,
Shawn Warkenthien Senior Director Global Product Safety & Compliance
