Preventative Maintenance

The Mojave inverter requires almost no regular maintenance. However, OutBack Power
recommends the following items on a periodic basis:

Vacuum or otherwise clean all vents on a regular basis.

Check all electrical connections periodically for tightness using the torque values listed in the

Mojave

Inverter/Charger Quick Start Guide

Turn off all circuit breakers before making these checks.

Check the batteries according to the recommendations and schedule provided by the battery
manufacturer. Perform equalization as appropriate.
