If your DEK Portable Generator shows 120 VAC on one phase but too high/low on the other phase, it could be that the alternator phase has failed.
What to do if my DEK Inverter shows voltage but no outlet power?
If your DEK Inverter's voltmeter shows 120 VAC but the outlets aren't providing power, the issue might stem from a faulty extension cord or power strip; try using a different one. Also, check the push-button breaker and reset it if it's tripped by disconnecting all loads and pushing the reset button. Similarly, examine the GFCI; if tripped, disconnect all loads and firmly push the red reset button. If the GFCI has failed, consider replacing it with any standard GFCI or household outlet.
Why does my DEK Inverter engine bog down under load?
If your DEK Inverter engine runs but bogs down under load, consider these potential causes: The choke might be open, so push the choke lever in. You might be overloading the generator, in which case you should disconnect some appliances or devices. A dirty air filter or a clogged fuel filter could also be the culprit, so clean the air filter and clean the fuel filter.
DEK Inverter shows voltage but no power to devices, what's wrong?
If your DEK Inverter shows both 240VAC and 120VAC on the voltmeter, but connected devices aren't receiving power, here's what you can check: First, try a different extension cord or power strip, as the current one may be faulty. Ensure the device you're using hasn't failed by testing with a different light bulb or device. Also, verify that the push-button breaker hasn't tripped. Finally, check the GFCI; if it's tripped, push the red reset button firmly, and if it has failed, replace it with any standard GFCI or household outlet.
What to do if DEK Inverter starts then shuts off quickly?
If your DEK Inverter engine starts but shuts off quickly, check the following: Ensure the oil level is adequate by consulting the owner's manual for the correct oil capacity. Verify that the fuel valve is open and the tank isn't empty. Inspect the spark plug for fouling or failure, and clean or replace it as necessary. A failed vacuum check valve could also be the problem; replace it, and call DEK for the replacement procedure.
Why is the recoil on my DEK 5650 hard to pull?
The recoil on your generator might be hard to pull or not retracting due to: * A dirty spark arrestor. Remove, clean, and replace it. * The recoil rubbing on a dented housing. * A failed alternator bearing. The alternator bearing needs to be replaced. It is recommended to send it to a service center. * A failed camshaft detent. * The head valve timing being off.
Why is my DEK 5650 Portable Generator voltage too high or low?
If you're experiencing voltage issues with your generator, consider the following: * The spark arrestor may be the cause. Remove, clean, and replace it. * The voltage may not be measured correctly. Voltage must be measured between hot and neutral, not hot and ground, as the ground is isolated. * The speed screw could be bent.
How to fix a fuel leak at the tank shut-off on my DEK 5650 Portable Generator?
If you notice a fuel leak at the tank shut-off, it's likely due to a loose shut-off valve. Try tightening the nut on the shut-off valve. If that doesn't solve the problem, you may need to replace the shut-off valve.
How to fix a leaking fuel gauge on a DEK Inverter?
To address a fuel gauge leak in your DEK Inverter, replace the fuel gauge gasket.
Why is oil leaking from the valve head cover on my DEK Inverter?
If oil is leaking from the valve head cover of your DEK Inverter, the bolts might not be tight enough. Tighten the bolts to resolve the leak.
