      Your Champion Portable Generator might shut down during operation if it runs out of fuel; in this case, refill the fuel tank. Another cause could be a low oil level. If the oil is low, fill the crankcase to the proper level and ensure the generator is placed on a flat, level surface.

      If your Champion Portable Generator has no AC output, begin by checking all cable connections to ensure they are properly connected. If the connections are good, the connected device may be defective and need replacement. Another potential issue is an open circuit breaker, which you can reset. Other possible causes include a defective capacitor, faulty brush assembly, faulty AVR (auto voltage regulator), or loose wiring.
