Operating Instructions
Please read these instructions before use
Maintenance:
Very little maintenance is required to keep your inverter operating properly. You should clean the
exterior of the unit periodically with a dry cloth to prevent accumulation of dust and dirt. Do NOT
use cleaning chemicals or water.
Remember to remove all plugs from GPO’s when cleaning the inverter and at the same
time, check and tighten the screws if necessary on the DC input terminals.
Helpful Tip to Conserve Battery Power:
Should the inverter not be used over an extended period of time, it is recommended that the
battery be disconnected from the inverter. This will ensure battery will not be drained over the
period of non-usage.
Before Use:
1.
Unpack and inspect the power inverter, check to see that the power switch in the OFF position.
2.
Connect the DC POSITIVE cable to the Positive (POS+) terminal on the battery.
3.
Connect the cable to the Positive terminal on the inverter.
4.
Connect the DC NEGATIVE cable to the Negative terminal on the inverter.
5.
Connect the cable to the Negative (NEG-) terminal of the battery. This should be the last
connection made. A spark when making this final connection is normal.
WARNING!
• Make sure all the DC connections are tight. Loose connections will overheat and could
result in a fire hazard. • Do not operate the power inverter without connecting it to ground if used on
a building site. Electrical shock hazard may result. • You may observe a spark when you make this
connection. Do not make this connection in the presence of flammable fuse Explosion or
fire may result.
Testing Unit after Connection:
1.
Set the power switch to the ON position. Check the METERS and INDIDCATORS on the front
panel of the inverter. The voltage bar graph will indicate the level of voltage from power source. If bar
graph (1000/1500/2500) or LED (600W) does not indicate voltage, check the power source and the
connections to inverter. The other indicators should be off.
2.
Set power inverter switch to the OFF position. The indicator lights may blink and the internal alarm
may sound momentarily. This is normal. Plug the test load into the AC GPO on the front panel of the
inverter while still in the “off” position.
3.
Set power inverter switch to the ON position and turn the test load on. The inverter should supply
power to the load.
4.
If you are operating several loads from the power inverter, switch them on separately after the
inverter has been switched on.
