D. ConneCTIng InVerTer CABleS
The inverter and the power source must
be in the OFF mode.
InVerTer ConneCTIon:
1. Locate the positive and negative
plastic terminals located on the left
side of the inverter. Using a flathead
or standard screwdriver, unscrew
the positive (red) and negative
(black) terminal screws just enough
to be able to insert the bare end of
the connector cables.
2. Insert the bare end of the positive
(red) cable into the positive terminal
and bare end of the negative (black)
cable into the negative terminal.
Tighten each terminal screw so the
cable cannot come loose.
To TUrn on:
1. Push the rocker switch, located
on the right side, to the “ON” (I)
position. The LED indicator light
should glow GREEN verifying the
inverter is receiving power and can
deliver power to your device. (A brief
audio alarm may sound or red LED
may flash. This is normal.)
2. Turn on the power source or device
to be powered.
noTe: If more than two devices are to
be powered, start one device at a time to
avoid a power surge and overloading the
inverter. The surge load of each device
should not exceed 2000 watts.
You can use an extension cord from
the inverter to the device without sig-
nificantly decreasing the power being
generated by the inverter. For best
operating results, the extension cord
should be no longer than 50 feet.
