INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Mount the inverter in a secure location. If the inverter is to be mounted
on a wall, mount it horizontally. Make sure that the front and rear of the
inverter has free air flow.
2. Make sure the cables are the proper gauge and have the fuse holder as
close to the battery bank's Positive (+) terminal as possible.
3. Install the fuse in the Positive (+) cable (Refer to the Cable Gauge Table at
rear of manual).
4. Make sure the ON/OFF switch located on the front panel of the inverter is
in the OFF (O) position.
5. Install the ground wire from the ground terminal to the grounding point.
6. Connect the Negative (−) cable end to the inverter terminal and battery's
Negative Terminal. Make sure you have good, secure connections.
7. Recheck and make sure the DC cable fuse is installed in the fuse holder.
8. Attach the positive cable to the Positive (+) DC connector on the battery
and then the inverter. Make sure the connections are tight and secure.
9. Turn on the inverter from the Front Panel ON/OFF Switch.
10. Make certain that the green Operating LED is lit and the red FAULT LED
indicator is not lit.
11. 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.
12. When you have confirmed that the appliance to be operated is turned off,
plug the appliance into one of the AC outlets on the inverter.
13. Turn the inverter on.
14. Turn the appliance on. The appliance should begin working.
15. Observe the LED indicators for normal operation.
If flooded lead acid batteries are used, be sure that periodic checks of battery
electrolyte levels are accomplished. Follow battery manufacturer's instructions in
keeping the electrolytes at the proper level. Be sure to use pure distilled water
when replacing evaporated electrolyte liquid.
