NOTE: Crimp-on ring terminals are required on all cable ends. The cable

ends need to be stripped of insulation for 1/2 inch before crimping on ring

terminals. Select a crimp terminal size to ﬁt the gauge cable and inverter

and battery terminal connectors. After crimping make sure that the cable

connectors are secure on the cables so there are no loose connections.

6. Remove the terminal covers from the inverter. Slide the cable through the

correct terminal cover.

7. Connect the Negative (black) cable end to the inverter terminal and battery

Negative Terminal. Make sure you have good, secure connections.

8. Recheck and make sure the DC cable fuse is installed in the fuse holder.

CAUTION: Making an initial connection between the positive cable end

and the inverter’s positive terminal may cause a spark. This is a normal and

is a result of capacitors in the inverter starting to charge. Because of the

possibility of sparking, it is extremely important that both the inverter and

the battery bank be positioned away from any source of ﬂammable fumes

or gases. Failure to heed this warning can result in ﬁre or explosion. Do not

make the positive terminal connection immediately after the batteries have

been charging. Allow time for the battery gasses to vent to outside air.

9. Attach the positive cable to the Positive DC connector on the battery and

then the inverter. Make sure the connections are tight and secure.

10. Turn on the inverter from the Front Panel Power Switch "|"

11. Make certain that the green Operating LED is lit and the FAULT LED

indicator is not lit.

12. Turn Off "O" the inverter. The Fault LED may brieﬂy “ﬂash”. This is normal.

The audible alarm may also sound a short “chirp”. This is also normal.

13. When you have conﬁrmed that the appliance to be operated is turned off,

plug the appliance into one of the two AC outlets on the front panel of the

inverter.

14. Turn the inverter on.
