the possibility of sparking, however, it is extremely important that both the inverter and the
12 volt battery be positioned far from any possible source of flammable fumes or gases.
Failure to heed this warning could result in fire or explosion.

Before Using the 5000W
When you turn on an appliance or a tool that runs on a motor, the appliance goes through two stages:
1. Start up - requiring an initial surge of power (commonly known as the "starting load" or "peak load".
2. Continuous operation - power consumption drops (commonly known as the "continuous load".)
Before using your power inverter, you should calculate these loads, i.e.:
1. Starting load (at start up)
2. Continuous load (on continuous operation)
The formula for power consumption (measured in either WATTS (wattage) or AMPS (amperes)) is:
AMPS x 110 (AC voltage) = WATTS
The wattage (W) or amperage (A) can normally be found stamped or printed on most appliances and
equipment, or in the User Manual. Otherwise, contact the manufacturer to find out whether the device you are
using is compatible with a modified sine wave inverter.
To calculate most starting loads:
Starting Load = 2 x WATTAGE
In general, the start up load of the appliance or power tool determines whether your inverter has the capability
to power it.
To calculate the continuous load (same as wattage in the above formula):
Continuous load = AMPS x 110 (AC voltage)
Attention:
Always run a test to establish whether the 5000 Watt Power Inverter will operate a particular piece of
equipment or appliance.
In the event of a power overload, the inverter is designed to automatically shut down. This safety feature
prevents damaging the unit while testing appliances and equipment within the watt range.
Important:
* Make sure you connect your 5000W inverter to a 12 volt power supply only.
Do not attempt to connect the inverter to any other power source, including any AC power source.
* 110 volts of current can be very dangerous. Incorrect operation of your inverter may result in damage to
belongings, personal injury or loss of life.
Features:
A. ON/OFF Rocker Switch
B. + C. LED Indicator Light (Green = Power On, Red = Overload)
Indicates Over Temperature and Over Load situations.
Over Temperature
When internal temperatures exceed 165° F (74°C) this LED will turn RED and the inverter will automatically
shut down. Turn off the appliance immediately when this occurs. The High Speed Cooling Fan automatically
