1000/2000/3000 Watt High Power Inverters
User Guide
Your inverter features an easy-to-read LCD screen which indicates the charge level of your source battery, power draw of your connected items, and a troubleshooting guide (should a fault occur). More information on inverter
faults can be found in the Troubleshooting Guide in this manual. Below is an explanation of the information displayed on your LCD screen.

Below is detailed information on installing the 2000 Watt and 3000 Watt inverters for recurring use, such as in a work vehicle, RV, trailer or other location requiring a permanent installation.
Please read this section carefully in order to ensure a safe and convenient installation.
Permanent Installation
(2000 Watt / 3000 Watt Inverters)
IMPORTANT:
Consult an electrician. Installations must meet local and national wiring codes
.
IMPORTANT:
Failure to follow these safety guidelines may cause personal injury and/or damage to the inverter. It may also void your product warranty.
IMPORTANT:
All connections must be clean and tight for optimal performance. Loose connections will result in higher resistance loss of power and increased heating.
Do not cover or obstruct ventilation openings. Loose connectors result in excessive voltage drop and may cause over heated wires and melted insulation, which can lead to electrical fires.
Reverse polarity connections (positive to negative) will blow internal fuses in the inverter and may permanently damage the inverter.
A. Connecting the ground:
Locate the chassis ground
connection (see Product Features) on the back panel of
your inverter. Connect a neutral wire to the wing nut,
and the other end of the neutral wire to either your
vehicle chassis or earth ground (stake).
This provides a safe path for electrical energy from your battery to return to the source (or earth), protecting your devices/appliances, vehicle and person from accidental harm.
The ground connection can be connected to earth or chassis ground depending on the installation.
Land:
Connect to earth ground
Vehicle:
Connect to vehicle chassis of the vehicle. If power equipment is used outside the vehicle an earth-stake should be used.

Your inverter is able to operate several devices at once, up to its maximum combined load. The 1000 Watt inverter can power a combined load of up to 1000 Watts of continuous power; the 2000 Watt
inverter can power a combined load of up to 2000 Watts of continuous power; the 3000 Watt can power a combined load of up to 3000 Watts of continuous power. If the total power draw of the connected
devices, tools and/or appliances exceeds this maximum, the inverter will automatically shut down to avoid dangerous overload. The chart below shows an approximation of typical wattages for popular
electrical items. Please consult the manual(s) of your device(s) to determine the exact wattage of your particular model.
