Maybe you could. It's a common problem with generators that aren't run often. They rely on the residual magnetism in the windings to get going. All you have to do is get some current through the windings to develop some magnetic field before starting up.
I just had a class on generators last semester and this sounds right. Never actually had to do it, though, so don't listen to me

Are y'all referencing the light system or the drill system? If so, then should I have my breakers on and just plug it into a wall socket in the camp. As I stated, the generator is hard wired into the main breaker box in the shed and has no direct plugs.
