Eco-Throttle Switch

The Eco-Throttle system automatically reduces engine speed when all
loads are turned off or disconnected. When appliances are turned on
or reconnected, the engine returns to the proper speed to power the
electrical load.
If high electrical loads are connected simultaneously, turn the Eco-
Throttle switch to the OFF position to reduce voltage changes.
ON − Recommended to minimize
fuel consumption and further
reduce noise levels when a
reduced load or no load is applied
to the generator.
OFF − The Eco-Throttle system
does not operate. Generator
operates at full output.
