  Your Porter-Cable Portable Generator might not start due to several reasons: it could be low on fuel or oil (add fuel or oil), the ignition switch might be in the "Off" position (turn it to "ON"), the spark plug could be faulty (replace spark plug), the choke might be in the wrong position (adjust accordingly), the fuel shut-off valve could be closed (open it), the unit might be loaded during start-up (remove the load), or the spark plug wire could be loose (attach it).

  If your Porter-Cable Portable Generator has no electrical output, the issue could stem from a faulty receptacle (have Service Center replace), a tripped circuit breaker (depress and reset), a defective capacitor (have Service Center replace capacitor), a faulty power cord (repair or replace the cord), or a tripped GFCI switch breaker (depress and reset).

  Repeated circuit breaker tripping on your Porter-Cable Portable Generator is likely due to an overload (reduce the load). It may also be caused by faulty cords or equipment; check for damaged, bare, or frayed wires and replace if necessary.
