CAUTION!
Equipment Damage
When connecting cables from the inverter to the battery terminals, ensure the
proper polarity is observed. Connecting the cables incorrectly can damage or
destroy the equipment and void the product warranty.
Thoroughly inspect the equipment prior to energizing. Verify that no tools or
equipment have been inadvertently left behind.
Ensure clearance requirements are strictly enforced.
Keep all vents clear of obstructions that can prevent proper air flow around, or
through, the unit.
CAUTION!
Equipment Damage
Static electricity may damage electronic components. Take appropriate steps to
prevent such damage to the inverter; otherwise the warranty may be annulled.
BATTERY SAFETY
WARNING!
Explosion, Electrocution, or Fire
Hazard
Ensure the cables (conductors) are properly sized.
Ensure clearance requirements are strictly enforced around the batteries.
Ensure the area around the batteries is well ventilated and clean of debris.
Never smoke, or allow a spark or flame near, the batteries.
Always use insulated tools. Avoid dropping tools onto batteries or other
electrical parts.
Never charge a frozen battery.
Never use old or untested batteries. Check each battery’s label for age, type,
and date code to ensure all batteries are identical.
If a battery must be removed, always remove the grounded terminal from the
battery first. Make sure all devices are de-energized or disconnected to avoid
causing a spark.
IMPORTANT
Use the battery types recommended by Go Power!. Follow the battery
manufacturer’s recommendations for installation and maintenance.
Insulate batteries as appropriate against freezing temperatures. A discharged
battery will freeze more easily than a charged one.
If a remote or automatic generator control system is used, disable the
starting circuit and/or disconnect the generator from its starting battery while
performing maintenance to prevent accidental starting.
Wear complete eye and clothing protection when working with batteries.
Avoid touching bare skin or eyes while working near batteries.
Keep plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin,
clothing, or eyes.
If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and
water. If acid enters the eye, immediately flood it with running cold water for
at least 20 minutes and get medical attention as soon as possible.
