MAINTENANCE

 

WARNING

 

Avoid accidentally starting the inverter 
during maintenance by removing

 

the spark plug boot from the spark 
plug. For electric start inverters, also 
disconnect the battery cables from the 
battery (disconnect the black negative 
(-) cable first) and place the cables 
away from the battery posts to avoid 
arcing.

 

Allow  hot  components  to  cool  to 
the touch prior to performing any 
maintenance procedure.

 

Internal pressure can build in the 
engine crankcase while the engine 
is running. Removing the oil fill plug/ 
dipstick while the engine is hot can 
cause extremely hot oil to spray out 
of the crankcase and can severely

 

burn skin. Allow engine oil to cool for 
several minutes before removing the 
oil fill plug/dipstick.

 

Always perform maintenance in a well- 
ventilated area. Petrol fuel and fuel 
vapors are extremely flammable and 
can ignite under certain conditions.

 

CAUTION

 

Avoid skin contact with engine oil or 
petrol. Prolonged skin contact with 
engine oil or petrol can be harmful. 
Frequent and prolonged contact with 
engine oil may cause skin cancer.

 

Take protective measures and wear 
protective clothing and equipment. 
Wash all exposed skin with soap and 
water.

 

WARNING

 

Failure to perform periodic 
maintenance or not following 
maintenance procedures can cause 
the inverter to malfunction and could 
result in death or serious injury.

 

NOTICE

 

Periodic maintenance intervals vary depending on 
inverter operating conditions. Operating the inverter 
under severe conditions, such as sustained high- 
load, high-temperature, or unusually wet or dusty 
environments, will require more frequent periodic 
maintenance. The intervals listed in the maintenance 
schedule should be treated only as a general 
guideline.

 

BEFORE PERFORMING MAINTENANCE ON THE INVERTER, REVIEW THE 
SAFETY SECTION STARTING ON PAGE 4, AS WELL AS THE FOLLOWING 
SAFETY MESSAGES.

 

Following the maintenance schedule is important to keep the inverter in good operating condition. The following is a 
summary of maintenance items by periodic maintenance intervals.
