Common Problems
Televisions will not start, power tools will start but will not continue to run.
Certain induction motors (motors without brushes) may require two to six time their wattage ratings to start up. If the power tool runs momentarily then stops when power is applied, try leaving the power to the tool "on" while quickly turning the power switch on the Inverter on and off.
Buzz in audio systems
Some inexpensive stereo systems and "boom boxes” will emit a buzzing sound from their loudspeakers when operated from the Inverter. This is because the power supply in the device does not ade- quately filter the modified sine wave produced by the Inverter. The only solution is to use a sound system that incorporates a higher qual- ity power supply.
Television interference
The Inverter is shielded and filtered to minimize interference with TV signals. In some cases, particularly with weak TV signals, some inter- ference may still be visible. Try the following corrective measures:
