    What to do if my Fischer Panda Portable Generator motor stops by itself?
    • K
      Karen DawsonAug 13, 2025
      If your Fischer Panda Portable Generator's motor stops by itself, there could be several reasons. First, ensure that there is enough fuel in the fuel supply system. Second, check the cooling water system flow, including the water pump, inlet water filter, and coolant flow, in case of overheating. Finally, verify the oil level and top it off if needed.

    Why Fischer Panda Portable Generator motor does not turn over at the normal speed during the starting process?
    • J
      Jeremiah WhiteSep 9, 2025
      If the Fischer Panda Portable Generator motor does not turn over at the normal speed during starting, it may be due to insufficient starter battery voltage, check battery. Also, there might be cooling water in the combustion chamber. In that case, turn the generator off, remove the glow plug, rotate the motor by hand carefully, check for water in the oil and change both oil and filter if necessary. Determine the cause for excess water in the combustion chamber, which may be a defective air vent in the cooling water system.
