Deep Cycle Batteries (RECOMMENDED)
Deep Cycle batteries, also known as marine batteries,
are best suited for use with the inverter. They are
designed to have the majority of their capacity used
before recharge. Available in many sizes and types,
be sure to use at least a 100 AH battery.
BATTERIES NOT INCLUDED
Tools Needed
An insulated adjustable wrench will be needed.
Installation
The Sumpro
®
unit is packaged in two separate cartons
containing one complete unit and a fuse link. Below
are the contents.

See accompanying unit assembly drawings.
1. Unpack The Sumpro
®
Your Sumpro
®
auxiliary power supply should be in
two separate containers. Remove the contents from
the containers. They should include the head unit,
the battery box and the fuse link (located inside the
battery box).
Open the lid on the battery enclosure and remove the
fuse link from inside.
2. Location
Find a suitable place to set the unit (when it is
assembled). Keep in mind that the unit should be
placed in an area where water and moisture will not
splash or drip on the unit, the fan inlet on the front
of the head unit will not be obstructed, and where a
properly grounded three prong receptacle is within
reach of the power cord. When fully assembled, the
head unit with batteries weighs appoximately 200
lbs. It is recommended to use the optional Sumpro®
stand to keep the unit off the floor. A dedicated 15A
receptacle circuit is recommended.
3. Assembly
Set the battery box in place, making sure that the
openings will be facing the back of the head unit. Once
in place, place the head unit in front of the battery box
feeding the battery leads through the large holes in
the front of the battery box.
4. Battery Installation
Now that the unit has been properly assembled and in
its permanent location the batteries can be installed.
Note:
If the battery post configuration differs from that
shown on
Page 4
,
Figure A
, additional post adapters
may be required.
CAUTION: Important Safety Instructions
A battery can present a risk of electrical
shock and high short circuit current. The following
precautions should be observed when working on
batteries.
1. Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
2. Use tools with insulated handles.
3. Do not lay tools or metal objects on top of
batteries.
4. Wear safety goggles and a face shield.
After taking the above precautions, secure the battery
box to the head unit using the screws provided.
Lower the two 12V batteries into the battery box with
the terminals facing each other. At this time check
the polarity of your batteries. Facing the front of the
Sumpro
®
unit, the left battery terminal should be
positive, and the right negative
(See Page 4, Figure
A)
. If this is not the case,
DO NOT
continue until the
proper batteries can be obtained.
5. CONNECTING BATTERIES
Now that the batteries have been installed, and the
polarity conforms to the Sumpro
®
, connect the fuse
link across the back battery terminals
(See Page
4, Detail A)
. Remove the protective cover from the
negative (-) battery lead (black) then connect it to
the negative (-) post of the battery. Screw down bolt
tightly.
