Battery Connection

WARNING!
Make sure the inverter power switch is in the OFF position,
connect with included DC Wiring to the positive and negative
terminals. Though your Inverter is a high-efficiency converter of
electricity, its rated output capacity is limited by the length and
gauge of the cabling running from the battery to the unit. Use
the included cabling or the shortest length and largest diameter
cabling (recommended 6 AWG or 4.11 mm
to fit your Inverter's DC Input terminals. Shorter and heavier
gauge cabling reduces DC voltage drop and allows for maximum
transfer of current. Your Inverter is capable of delivering peak
wattage at up to 200% of its rated continuous wattage output
for brief periods of time. Heavier gauge cabling should be used
when continuously operating heavy draw equipment under these
conditions.
To Connect the Inverter to Batteries:
1. Locate the positive (+) red and negative (-) black terminals on the
left side of the inverter.
2. From the positive and the negative terminals, remove the hex nut,
split lock, and flat washer.
3. Place the positive ring connector onto the positive inverter
terminal. Place the negative ring connector onto the negative DC
input terminal.
4. Place a flat washer and split lock on top of each ring connector.
Put the positive and negative hex nuts over these and tighten to
create a secure connection and prevent excessive heating at this
connection. Insufficient tightening of the terminals could void your
warranty. See Specifications for recommended cable sizing.
