REAR VIEW
A: Fan:
Do not obstruct, allow at least 12 inches for air flow.
B: Battery terminals:
Connect to 12V, or 24V, or 36V, or 48V (depending on inverter model) battery
(s) or other DC power source. "+" is positive & " - " is negative. Reverse polarity connection will blow
internal fuse and may damage inverter permanently. Make sure you check your input voltage and do
not REVERSE POLARITY!
This will void the warranty.
C: Chassis ground lug: Connect to earth ground or to vehicle chassis using #8 AWG wire.
Warning! Operation of the inverter without a proper ground connection may result in an electrical
safety hazard.
QUICK HOOK-UP AND TESTING
If you would like to quickly hook-up the power inverter and check its performance before going ahead
with your installation, please follow these guidelines:
1. Unpack and inspect the power inverter, check to see that the power switch is in the OFF position.
2. Before you connect the battery cables, make sure the power switch is in the off position. Connect
Red (+) battery cable to Red (+) inverter terminal. Connect Black (-) battery cable to Black (-) inverter
terminal. Connect Red (+) battery cable to Red (+) battery terminal. Connect Black (-) battery cable to
Black (-) battery terminal. Alligator clamp cables may be used but only to connect to the battery. Do not
use clamps on inverter terminals. Alligator clamps are not a permanent solution. You may see a spark
during connection.
Do not reverse the polarity.
This may damage the inverter and void warranty.
Caution!
Loosely tightened connectors result in excessive voltage drop and may cause overheated wires
and melted insulation. Reverse polarity connection will blow a fuse in inverter and may permanently
damage the inverter. Damage caused by reverse polarity connection is not covered by our warranty.
Warning! You may observe a spark when you make this connection since current may flow to charge
capacitors in the power inverter. Do not make this connection in the presence of flammable fumes, as
explosion or fire may result.
3. Set the power switch to the on position. Check the meters and indicators on the
front panel
of the inverter. The voltage bar graph should indicate 11 to 14 volts depending on the voltage
of the power source. If it does not, check your power source and the connections to inverter.
