WARNING FOR INVERTER POWER SUPPLY (U) GROUNDING
Check the high voltage inverter power supply circuit grounding.
This high voltage inverter power supply circuit board must have a
proper chassis ground, the inverter grounding bracket must be
connected to the chassis. If the inverter board is not grounded it
will expose very high voltages and cause extreme DANGER! Be
sure that the inverter circuit is properly grounded via the inverter
earth bracket.
