If your Briggs & Stratton Portable Generator shuts down, there are a couple of things you can check: * Ensure the fuel tank is filled with gasoline. * Check the oil level. If it's low, fill the crankcase to the proper level or place the generator on a level surface.
Why is there no AC output from my Briggs & Stratton 01970 Portable Generator, even though it's running?
If your Briggs & Stratton Portable Generator is running but has no AC output, here's what you can check: 1. Reset the circuit breaker, as it may be open. 2. Check and repair any poor connections or defective cord sets. 3. Connect another device that is known to be in good condition to rule out a problem with the original device. If none of these steps work, there may be a fault in the generator, and you should contact an authorized service facility.
What to do if my Briggs & Stratton Portable Generator runs good at no-load but bogs down when loads are connected?
If your Briggs & Stratton Portable Generator runs fine without a load but bogs down when you connect devices, consider these potential causes: * A connected electrical load may have a short circuit; disconnect it. * The generator might be overloaded; consult the section "Don't Overload Generator". If neither of these resolves the issue, there may be a shorted generator circuit, and you should contact an authorized service facility.
