  If your K&S Portable Generator is running but not supporting connected devices, it could be due to a device overload. Try connecting fewer devices. Another possibility is a short circuit in one of the connected devices; try disconnecting devices to identify the faulty one. If the engine speed is insufficient, contact the service center.
