inverter.
8. Remove all conduits with cables from the inverter.
9. Close all enclosure openings.

Risk of burns due to hot enclosure parts
• Wait 30 minutes before disassembling the inverter. This will allow the enclosure to cool
down and thus prevent burn injuries.
11. Remove the inverter by lifting it vertically up and off the wall mounting bracket.
12. Place the lower enclosure lid on the inverter from above and flip down. The screws must
protrude from the lower enclosure lid.
13. Tighten all six screws of the lower enclosure lid
using an Allen key (AF 3) in the order 1 to 6
(torque: 2.0 Nm (17.7 in-lb.)). By tightening the
screws in the prescribed order, you avoid
warping the lid, which would keep it from
sealing correctly.
Useful hint: If the screws fall out of the lower
enclosure lid, insert the long screw into the lower
middle hole and the five short screws into the
other holes.
14. Release the screws from the wall mounting bracket and take the bracket off the wall.
15. If the inverter is to be stored or shipped, pack the inverter and the wall mounting bracket. Use
the original packaging or packaging that is suitable for the weight and dimensions of the
inverter and secure with tension belts if necessary.
16. Dispose of the inverter in accordance with the locally applicable disposal regulations for
electronic waste.
