STEP 6 If you are using a battery selector switch, switch it to select one of the batteries. Set the ON/OFF
switch on the PROwatt 1500 to the ON position. Check the meters and indicators on the front panel of
the PROwatt 1500. The voltage bar graph should indicate 12 to 13 volts (24-26V for PW1500/24), de-
pending on the voltage of the battery. If it does not, check your battery and the connections to the
PROwatt 1500. The other indicators should be off.
