Inverter Mounting Recommendations
NOTE: The inverter mounting location should provide adequate ventilation and clearance to maintain room
temperature during operation. At least ½” of clearance is required on all sides except the bottom.
1.
Locate a suitable, secure mounting surface as close to the batteries as possible without being in the same
compartment.
2.
Mount the inverter using four ¼-20 steel bolts, flat and lock washers, and nuts. The length of the bolts should
be equal to the thickness of the mounting surface plus ¾”.
