2 Service Information
2.1 The importance of proper servicing
Proper servicing is essential to the safety of the operator and the reliability of the engine. Any error or oversight made by the technician while servicing can easily result in faulty operation, damage to the engine or injury to the operator.
Improper servicing can cause an unsafe condition that can lead to serious injury or death.
Follow the procedures and precautions in this shop manual carefully.
Some of the most important precautions are given below. However, we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing maintenance or repairs. Only you can decide whether you should perform a given task.
Failure to follow maintenance instructions and precautions can cause you to be seriously hurt or killed. Follow the procedures and precautions in this shop manual carefully.
2.2 Important safety precautions
Be sure you have a clear understanding of all basic shop safety practices and that you are wearing appropriate clothing and safety equipment. When performing maintenance or repairs, be especially careful of the following:
Read the instructions before you begin, and be sure you have the tools and skills required to perform the tasks safely.
Be sure that the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs. This will reduce the possibility of several hazards:
a.) Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide. Never run the generator in an enclosed area.
b.) Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you run the engine.
c.) The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for several minutes after stopping the engine.
d.) Let the engine cool before you touch it.
e.) Keep away from moving parts while the generator is running.
Do not run the engine unless the instruction tells you to do so. Even then, keep your hands, fingers, and clothing away.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
To reduce the possibility of a fire or explosion, use caution when working around gasoline, use only a nonflammable solvent, not gasoline, to clean parts. Keep all cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from all fuel-related parts.
8 PH2100PRI SM 04-27-2011
2.3 Service rules
1. Use genuine POWERHOUSE® or POWERHOUSE®-recommended parts and lubricants or their equivalents. Parts that do not meet POWERHOUSE® design specifications may damage the engine.
2. Always install new gaskets, O-rings, etc. when reassembling.
3. When tightening bolts or nuts, begin with larger-diameter or inner bolts first and tighten to the specified torque diagonally, unless a particular sequence is specified.
4. Clean parts in cleaning solvent upon disassembly. Lubricate any sliding surfaces before reassembly.
5. After reassembly, check all parts for proper installation and operation.
6. Many screws used in this machine are self-tapping. Be aware that cross-threading or over tightening these screws will strip the threads and ruin the hole.
7. Use only metric tools when servicing this engine. Metric bolts, nuts and screws are not interchangeable with non metric fasteners. The use of incorrect tools and fasteners will damage the engine.
8. Follow the instructions represented by these symbols when they are used.
Electric precautions
1. Hold the connector body to disconnect the connector. Do not disconnect by pulling the wire harness. To disconnect the locking connector, be sure to unlock first, and then disconnect.
2. Check the connector terminals for bent, excessive extrusion, missing terminal, or other abnormalities before connecting the connector.
3. To connect, insert the connector as full as it goes. If the connector is a locking type, be sure that it is locked securely.
4. Check the connector cover for breakage and check whether the connector female terminal is open excessively. Then, connect the connector securely. Check the connector terminal for rust.
Remove the rust using an emery paper or equivalent material before connecting the connector.
5. Set the harness clips in the specified places of the frame securely, and clamp the wire harnesses.
6. Clamp the wire harnesses securely so that they do not interfere with the rotating parts, moving parts and the hot parts.
7. Route and connect the wire harnesses properly. Be sure that the harnesses are not loose, twisted or pulled tight.
8. Route the wire harnesses properly so that they do not contact with the shape edges and corners, and the end of the bolts and screws on the body.
9. If a wire harness contacts the end of the bolts/screws or sharp edges and corners, protect the contact part of the harness with a tube or by winding with an electrician ‟s insulating tape. If the wire harness has a grommet, set the grommet securely.
10. Take care not to pinch the wire harnesses during installation of a part. If a wire harness has the damaged insulation, repair by winding with the electrician ‟s insulating tape.
11. Read the tester manufacture ‟s operation instructions carefully before operation with tester.
Follow the instructions of the Service Manual. Be sure that the battery built in a tester is fully charged and check the meter before inspection using the tester.

3.2 Difficult cold starting
The choke on the PH2100PRi operates automatically. When the unit is off, the choke will return to the closed position. In some cases, the choke may close too slowly or open too fast. Both conditions can cause difficulty starting the unit. Read below to see if one or both conditions are present.
What to check:
1. Remove the maintenance cover to view the choke system (fig. 1-A).
2. Make sure that there is sufficient fuel in the tank and the fuel valve is open. If the unit has been sitting for some time or has been run out of fuel, it may be necessary to pump the primer bulb several times to fill the fuel filter, ensuring fuel is getting to the carburetor.
3. While cranking the engine over using the ignition key (Not the remote), watch the choke lever
(fig. 2-A). The lever should begin to move to the left (Open) position as it is being pulled by the vacuum from the engine.
Fig. 1
A
Choke opens too fast:
1. If the choke is being pulled open to fast, there will not be enough fuel drawn in to the intake manifold to start the engine. If after four starting attempts the unit fails to start, try holding the choke closed while cranking. If the unit now starts, shut the key off and allow the generator to cool down for several minutes. If after sitting for several minutes the unit is still hard to start without holding the choke closed, the check valve will need to be inspected. Air should flow easily in one direction only (Away from the choke pod). If air flows easily in both directions, replace the check valve.
Choke closes too slowly:
1. If the choke opens properly but does not return to the closed position over an extended period of time, restarting can be difficult. The choke should normally return to the closed position in 2 seconds or less. If the choke stays open for more than 5 seconds, the check valve will need to be replaced.
