  If the auxiliary power is not working on your Klutch Portable Generator, there are several possible causes. First, check the auxiliary power switch and circuit breakers on the front panel of the unit to ensure they are not open. Also, the engine speed may be too low, so increase the engine throttle. Finally, make sure the amperage control is at the maximum setting for auxiliary power output.

Why can't I create an arc with my Klutch Portable Generator?
- C
  Cassandra HarrisAug 3, 2025
  If you cannot create an arc with your Klutch Portable Generator, there are several potential reasons. The workpiece might be painted or rusty, so remove all paint and rust. The ground clamp could be connected where there is paint or rust; ensure it's connected to bare metal. Also, verify that the ground clamp is electrically connected to the workpiece. Finally, the amperage might be too low for the electrode; consult the electrode packaging for correct amperage settings.

What to do if welding bead is too thin with my Klutch Portable Generator?
- R
  Robert FarrellAug 20, 2025
  If the welding bead is too thin when using your Klutch Portable Generator, it may be because the welding travel speed is too fast. Reduce the welding travel speed and maybe incorporate a slight weave over the joint.

Why does the electrode stick when using my Klutch Portable Generator?
- E
  Eric ChungAug 26, 2025
  The electrode might stick when using your Klutch Portable Generator if it is kept in contact with the workpiece for too long while striking an arc. This will take practice; keep trying.
