Quick Cable Inverter - Manual (Page 2)

Explanation:
• The short red wire is to go from the positive terminal of the battery to
one side of the fuse holder. The fuse inside the fuse holder protects
your vehicle from damage caused by accidental shorting of the long
red wire to ground.
Use 150-amp fuse for 1000 watt power inverters
Use 200-amp fuse for 1500 watt power inverters
Use 250-amp fuse for 2500 watt power inverters
• The long red wire is to go from the other side of the fuse holder to
the positive (+) terminal of the power inverter.
• The black wire is to go from the negative (–) terminal of the battery
to the negative terminal of the power inverter.
• The green wire is to go from the chassis ground of the vehicle to the
ground terminal of the power inverter.
Connectors:
• All connectors are made from high quality copper and covered with
anti-corrosion coating.
• Two of the connectors have larger (3/8") holes for connection
directly to the battery
• Two of the connectors (wedge shaped) are to be used if your power
inverter has screw down terminals. Using these connectors will
prevent loosening over time
Grommets:
• The grommets are very important. Make sure to use grommets to
protect the wires when going through holes drilled in metal
Preparation:
1) Find a location for the fuse holder near the battery.
2) Find a location for the power inverter inside of vehicle.
3) Drill holes for routing the
red (+) and black (–) wires from battery
into vehicle. Make sure to use grommets to protect the wires from
rough metal edges. The
green wire is the ground and no grommet
is needed.
4) Use a hacksaw or cable cuters to cut wires to required length.
Remember; too long is better than too short.
5) Strip back insulation (5/8") on ends of wires.
Caution:
• Never work on electrical wiring in the rain, while drinking or under
medication
• Disconnect battery, never work on electrical wiring while connected
to the battery
• The last connection is always connecting to the positive terminal of
the battery
Warranty:
The components (excluding fuses) of the safety kit are warrantied for
one year from date of purchase
(The negative terminal of the battery is connected to the chassis or engine housing)
Installation:
1) Crimp or solder connectors to both ends of short red wire
2) Crimp or solder connector to one end of long red wire, black wire
and green wire
3) Mount fuse holder to secure location near battery
4) Mount power inverter inside vehicle. Most power inverters can be
mounted horizontally, vertically or upside down
5) Remove fuse holder cover. Remove top nut and washer from
fuse posts.
Use 150-amp fuse for 1000 watt power inverters
Use 200-amp fuse for 1500 watt power inverters
Use 250-amp fuse for 2500 watt power inverters
Place fuse on top of bottom washer on both posts. Place connector
on short red wire on fuse end on post nearest battery. Place
washer on top connector and tighten nut. Place connector on long
red wire on fuse end of remaining post. Place washer on top of
connector and tighten nut. Replace fuse holder cover and secure
cover with cable ties or electrical tape.
6) Connect the black wire connector to the negative (–) terminal of
the battery
7) Connect the green wire connector to the chassis ground of the
vehicle. The chassis ground is the point where the wire from the
negative terminal of you battery is connected to the metal frame
or engine
8) Route the long red, black and green wires to power inverter. Crimp
or solder the connectors on all wires
9) Connect the red wire connector to the red terminal of the power
inverter. Tighten securely
10) Connect the black wire connector to the black terminal of the
power inverter. Tighten securely
11) Connect the green wire connector to the ground (copper)
connection of the power inverter
12) Recheck connections and make sure the red wire or its
connectors are not touching any metal parts of the vehicle or the
black connectors
13) Make sure the power inverter is OFF. Connect the end of the
short red wire to the battery. Be careful, there is normally a spark
at this time
14) Turn the power inverter ON
