Installation Precautions 3. Keep combustible materials and gasses away from the inverter. The inverter produces sparks and heat during operation and can start a fire. 4. Connect to 12 VDC power supply only. A power supply with lower voltage will not operate the Inverter correctly, and higher voltage could damage the unit. 5. Connect input polarity properly. Incorrect connection will damage inverter and void warranty. 6. Do not use in a marine application.
Safety 5. Check for breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the Inverter’s operation. If damaged, have it repaired before use. 8. Do not attach a battery charger if the charger carries a warning that dangerous voltages are present at the battery terminals. 6. Do not attempt to power a device, or combination of devices, that will require more than the rated output of this inverter. This may damage the inverter or the attached devices. 9.

Installation Read the entire Important Safety Information section at the beginning of this manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product. Safety TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION: Make sure that the Power Switch is in the off‑position and unplug the tool from its electrical outlet before performing any procedure in this section.
• Locate battery bank in a clean, wellventilated area, away from ignition sources and flammable materials. Batteries release explosive hydrogen gas while charging. c. Then connect all the negative terminals to one another. • Charge, store, and maintain batteries according to supplier’s instructions. e. Test the voltages at the output cables to help ensure that the battery bank is properly wired.
Operating Instructions Read the entire Important Safety Information section at the beginning of this manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.

Operating Instructions Setup 1. Plug 120 V~ device(s) into the receptacles.
Maintenance and Servicing TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION: Make sure that all loads are disconnected from the Inverter, the Power Switch is in the off‑position and the cables are disconnected from power source before performing any procedure in this section. Safety Procedures not specifically explained in this manual must be performed only by a qualified technician. To prevent serious injury from tool failure: Do not use damaged equipment.
Troubleshooting Safety Problem Possible Causes Inverter shuts off during use. 1. Excessive load at output. 2. Internal temperature is too high. 1. Reduce load to less than rated power. 2. Let the Inverter cool down for at least 30 minutes. Make sure that the fan is not blocked and that the Inverter has sufficient ventilation. No output voltage. 1. Cords not connected properly. 2. Fuse on battery bank open. 1. Check and secure connections. 2. Check battery bank fuse and replace as needed. 3.
