The Trace Series inverter can weigh as much as 45 lb. (20.4 kg). Wallboard is not
strong enough to support its weight so additional support must be used or added.
The inverter can be mounted directly to the wall studs if the wall studs are 16 in.
(40.6 cm) apart. If not, then standard size construction stud material, for example
2 ft. x 4 ft. (60 cm x 120 cm) studs or plywood can be used. Ensure a location is
selected that can support twice the inverter's weight.
WARNING: Personal Injury
Use appropriate lifting techniques. Have extra people on hand to assist in lifting the
inverter into position while it is being secured.
To secure the Trace Series to the wall studs:
1. Locate the studs and mark their location on the wall.
2. Measure the desired height from the floor for the inverter to be mounted.
3. Using a level, mark a horizontal line. The length of the line must span at least
three studs.
4. Using the dimensions illustrated in Figure 2-1, drill mounting holes into the
center of the studs for the inverter.
5. Secure the inverter to the studs using ¼
and washers or equivalent.
