MAXX SST™ inverters are ideal for powering:

• TV/VCR combinations
• Refrigerator/freezers
• Lights
• Radio receivers/transceivers
• Heavy duty power tools & chargers
• Stereo systems
• Small microwave ovens
• Household appliances
• Computers and peripheral equipment
• Dry and/or wet-and-dry vacuums
• Sump pumps, motors and other electric-powered equipment

MAXX SST™ uses a 12VDC power source like those found in motor vehicles, or
it can be operated using multiple battery configurations with commercial battery
chargers or solar battery chargers. For most heavy-duty applications, a multiple
battery configuration and the use of deep-cycle batteries is required.
When using multiple batteries, inverters can be operated from one of the vehi-
cle 12 volt batteries, so there’s always one battery with adequate charge to
start an engine.
MAXX SST™ includes a high-surge capability. This is required to start heavy
loads, such as motors and other inductive devices.

1.3 APPLIANCE CAUTIONS

NEVER

plug small appliances into the inverter outlets to directly recharge nick-

el-cadmium batteries. Always use the charger provided with that appliance.

NEVER

plug in battery chargers for cordless power tools, if the charger carries a

warning that dangerous voltages are present at the battery terminals. 
Some fluorescent lamps may not operate properly with this type of inverter. If the
bulb appears to be too bright, or fails to light, do not use the lamp with this inverter.
Some fans with synchronous motors may slightly increase in speed (RPM) when
powered by the inverter. This is not harmful to the fan or to the inverter.
Certain chargers for small nickel-cadmium batteries can be damaged if
plugged into the inverters. 

DO NOT

use inverters with the following two types of equipment.

1. Small, battery-operated appliances such as flashlights, cordless razors and

tooth brushes that can be plugged directly into an AC receptacle to
recharge.

2. Certain battery chargers for battery packs that are used in some cordless

hand-tools. Chargers for these tools have a warning label stating that 
dangerous voltages are present at the battery terminals.

The majority of portable appliances do not have this problem. Most portable
appliances use separate transformers or chargers that plug into AC receptacles
to supply a low DC or AC voltage output to the appliance. If the appliance label
states that the charger or adapter produces a low DC or AC voltage output 
(30 volts or less), there should be no problem powering that charger or adapter.
