You can't put stuff where you don't have an existing connection. And you can't get a connection without offering the required bits of information. So the error message is reasonable. You can make a new transfer window this way (you have to define the variables for the_host, the_user, the_pwd, and the init_path).
tell application "Fetch"
make new transfer window at beginning with properties {hostname:the_host, username:the_user, password:the_pwd, initial folder:init_path}
end tell
