  If your HERON Portable Generator has no AC output, several factors could be responsible. First, check all cable connections to ensure they are properly connected. The connected device may be defective, so try replacing it. Also, see if the AC circuit breaker is off; if it is, adjust the loading and reset the CB. Other potential causes include a defective capacitor, a faulty AVR, or loose wiring. Inspect and tighten the wiring if necessary.

  If your HERON Portable Generator fails to start, there are several potential causes. For electric start models, check if the battery is connected correctly according to the manual, and ensure it is charged.

Why HERON Portable Generator shuts down uncommanded during operation?

  Michael TorresAug 23, 2025
  If your HERON Portable Generator shuts down unexpectedly during operation, it could be due to a couple of reasons. The generator may be running out of fuel, so check and refill the petrol or GAS supply. Alternatively, the engine oil level might be low, triggering the automatic shutdown system. In this case, fill the engine oil as specified in the manual.

  urossAug 31, 2025
  If the power output of your HERON Portable Generator is decreasing or the generator is overheating, consider these possible causes. The generator might be overloaded, so check the total load and adjust it to stay within the generator's specifications. If using gas, the gas pressure could be outside the specified values; reduce the flow rate at the gas source. Also, ensure the CNG or LPG switch on the side of the carburetor is set correctly for the gas being used and that the CNG/LPG stopcock is fully open.
