Why is there no welding current in my Fronius Portable Generator?
- V
  Vanessa RoweAug 21, 2025
  There are several reasons why there might be no welding current. It could be due to a break in the mains lead, so check the mains lead and voltage. Alternatively, there might be a break in the welding cable connections, in which case you should check the plug connections. A poor or missing earth connection could also be the cause; ensure there's a solid connection to the workpiece.

How to fix severe spattering with my Fronius Portable Generator?
- S
  Scott WilliamsAug 22, 2025
  Severe spattering can occur due to several reasons. First, check if the electrode polarity is correct by referring to the manufacturer's instructions to reverse it if needed. Another cause might be a poor ground earth connection; make sure to fasten the earthing clamps directly to the workpiece. Lastly, the setup parameters might not be ideal for the selected welding process, so select the best setting in the Setup menu.

What to do if my Fronius Portable Generator has no welding current?
- L
  Lauren NguyenAug 25, 2025
  If your Fronius Portable Generator isn't producing welding current, several factors could be at play. The duty cycle might be exceeded, causing the device to overload – in this case, stay within the duty cycle. The thermostatic automatic circuit breaker may have switched off the device; wait for the power source to come back on automatically after the cooling phase. Insufficient cooling air intake can also cause this, so ensure an adequate air supply. A dirty air filter could be the culprit; clean it. As a last resort, there may be a power module error, so turn the device off and on again.

Why does the mains fuse keep tripping on my Fronius Portable Generator?
- C
  Christopher JenkinsAug 26, 2025
  The mains fuse might be tripping because it's underrated or the circuit breaker is incorrect. Make sure to fuse the mains correctly, referring to the technical data. If the mains fuse trips in an open circuit, contact After-Sales Service.

Why am I having issues with TIG welding on my Fronius Portable Generator?
- D
  Diana RiddleAug 27, 2025
  If you're experiencing problems with TIG welding, it could be due to several factors. The tungsten electrode polarity might be incorrect; connect the TIG welding torch to the negative pole. Another possibility is incorrect or missing shielding gas; use inert shielding gas (argon). Finally, ensure you've selected the correct welding process: TIG welding or TIG pulsed arc welding.

What to do if the arc breaks during welding with my Fronius Portable Generator?
- E
  ellisdavidAug 29, 2025
  If the arc breaks during welding, it could be because the TIG Comfort Stop parameter value is set too low for the selected TIG welding process; adjust it to a higher value in the Setup menu. It could also be that the electrode (e.g. grooved electrode) voltage is too high; if possible, use an alternative electrode or a power source with more welding power. Finally, ensure that the correct welding process is selected: either "TIG welding" or "TIG pulsed arc welding".

Why is the LED flashing for the set process on my Fronius Portable Generator?
- K
  Kim CopelandAug 31, 2025
  The LED might be flashing because of single-phase operation with a welding current greater than 140A; select a welding current less than 140A and continue welding. Another reason could be a phase failure; check the mains lead.

How to prevent the rod electrode from sticking on my Fronius Portable Generator?
- R
  Richard FullerSep 1, 2025
  If the rod electrode tends to stick, the value of the arc-force dynamic parameter (MMA welding) might be set too low. Increase the value of the arc-force dynamic parameter.

How to improve ignition during MMA welding with my Fronius Portable Generator?
- C
  Cheryl MurraySep 3, 2025
  If you're experiencing poor ignition properties during MMA welding, it could be that the incorrect welding process is selected. Ensure you select the appropriate welding process.

What does it mean when the status indicators show 'Open circuit' on my Fronius Portable Generator?
- E
  Elizabeth LinSep 5, 2025
  The 'Open circuit' status indicates that the output voltage is greater than 110V. Switch the machine off and on again; if the fault keeps recurring, have the device serviced.
