7.2.4 Replace the inverter 

Please confirm the following things before replacing the inverter: 

(1) The inverter is turned off. 

(2) The DC switch of the inverter is turned to OFF position. 

Then Replace the inverter according to the following steps: 

a.) Unlock the padlock if it is installed on the inverter. 

 

Figure 7-2 Unlock the padlock 

b.)  Use  a  No.2  Phillips  head  screwdriver  to  unscrew  the  2  screws  on  both 

sides of the inverter. 

 

Figure 7-3 Remove the screws on both sides
