Inverter

The good lord looks after idiots like me!
The 80 amp breaker in the bottom pic below has a red button reset and a blade switch on the bottom side (that I did not know was there). I reset the blade switch and my unit inverter came back to life...but this incident generated more questions for me. This may not be the right thread but here goes.

There was a recent thread called “Level up” discussing the replacement of the OEM 50 amp breaker with an 80 amp breaker. The original posters pics showed an in line Magnum fuse on the red wire going to the inverter. My red wire going to the inverter had the OEM 50 amp circuit breaker on it which I replaced with a 80 amp breaker. The original poster has a 2019 model. The Magnum Inverter Owners manual diagram shows a fuse like the 2019 pic. So - does my circuit breaker function act as the inverter “fuse”? How did placing an 80 amp circuit breaker on my inverter red wire power source fix my hydraulic level up issue? Did they start using an in line fuse in the 2019 models?

In the top pic you can see a red wire for the hydraulic pump coming from one of those auto reset circuit breakers (red cap thing). Should my 80 amp CB be on that red wired and not on the inverter red wire line? And I should put the OEM 50 amp CB back on the inverter red wire?
