OPERATION
3. Pull the choke knob out to the ON position (see
Figure 29).
Figure 29 – Choke Knob (WH1000i Shown)
4. Firmly grasp and pull the recoil handle slowly until
you feel increased resistance. At this point, apply
a rapid pull while pulling out from the inverter (see
Figure 30).

5. As the engine starts and stabilizes, gradually push
the choke knob back in to the OFF position.

Using Efficiency Mode
The inverter is equipped with an efficiency mode switch
to minimize fuel consumption. In efficiency mode, the
inverter will sense the load and adjust the engine RPM
to the current load requirements. Efficiency mode
should be used only after the inverter has been warmed
up to operating temperature.
1. To turn on the efficiency mode, press the switch to
the ON position (see Figure 31).
Figure 31 – Efficiency Mode Switch
(WH1000i Shown)
2. If no load is present, the inverter RPM will drop
down to an idle speed.
3. As a load is applied, the inverter will sense the load
and engine RPM will increase according to the load
applied.
4. To run the inverter at maximum power and RPM,
press the efficiency mode switch to the OFF
position.
Resetting the Reset breaker
The inverter will trip the breaker and automatically
disconnect from the load when the controls sense a
predetermined overload condition. The inverter engine
will continue to run, but there will not be any electrical
output.
1. Turn off all devices and unplug them from the
inverter.
2. Determine the wattage required from the devices
being powered by the inverter. Make sure the
wattage required does not exceed the maximum
output of the inverter.
3. Press in the reset breaker to reset it.
4. Plug the devices in to the inverter.
5. Turn on the devices as needed.
