Pure Line 3000 by Wagan Tech ® REMOTE ON/OFF CONTROL Optional wired remote control sold separately. Item #AA5603. Insert wired remote plug into Remote Switch Connection port. Set ON/OFF/ Remote switch to "remote" position. LOAD CONSIDERATIONS The startup load of an appliance is a major factor of whether this inverter can power it.
User’s Manual—Read before using this equipment multiply the amps by 115 (115V AC) to determine the watts. For example, an appliance rated at 0.5 amps will draw 60 watts. WATTS = VOLTS × AMPS Remember to consider the startup surge that motorized appliances will cause. Do not exceed the 6,000 watt momentary surge rating of this inverter.

User’s Manual—Read before using this equipment the battery bank’s positive terminal. The fuse amperage rating must be sized to allow simultaneous operation of all the AC appliances to be powered, plus 20 percent safety factor. Fuses are very important to protect equipment, batteries, and personnel.
Pure Line 3000 by Wagan Tech ® DC CABLE GAUGE Minimize cable losses by using the thickest wire available and the shortest practical length. Measure Round Trip (RT) cable distances in feet. Round Trip cable distance is battery to inverter and back to battery. If the application is in a vehicle with engine operating, use the supplied cables for round trip distances up to 5 feet.
