  • Page 17: Inverter Operation

    3-7. Inverter Operation: To operate the power inverter, turn it on by using the ON/OFF switch on the front panel. The power inverter is now ready to deliver AC power to your loads. If you are operating several loads from the power inverter, turn them on separately after the inverter has been turned on.
  • Page 18 WARNING! You may observe a spark when you make this connection since current may flow to charge capacitors in the power inverter. Do not make this connection in the presence of flammable fumes Explosion or fire may result. 3-7-5. Set the power switch to the ON position. Check the meters and indicators on the front panel of the inverter.
  • Page 19: Power Output

    3-8. Power output: The inverter will operate most AC loads within its power rating. When deeming whether a microwave oven can be operated by the inverter, remember that the power commonly advertised for microwave ovens are the cooking power (the power delivered to the food) not the power actually consumed by the microwave oven.
  • Page 20: Troubleshooting Guide

    4. Troubleshooting guide: WARNING! Do not open or disassemble the Inverter. Attempting to service the unit yourself may result in a risk of electrical shock or fire. Problems and Symptoms Possible Cause Solutions Low output voltage Using average reading Use true RMS reading meter and cable.
  • Page 21: Maintenance

    5. Maintenance: Very little maintenance is required to keep your inverter operating properly. You should clean the exterior of the unit periodically with a damp cloth to prevent accumulation of dust and dirt. At the same time, tighten the screws on the DC input terminals. 6.
