Connecting Inverter Cables

The inverter and the power source must be in the OFF mode.

Inverter Connection:

1.Locate the positive and negative plastic terminals located on the left side of the inverter. Using a flathead or standard screwdriver, unscrew the positive (red) and negative (black) terminal screws just enough to be able to insert the bare end of the connector cables.

2.Insert the bare end of the positive (red) cable into the positive terminal and bare end of the negative (black) cable into the negative terminal. Tighten each terminal screw so the cable cannot come loose.

Connecting Inverter Cables To 12V Battery Or 12V Power Source

1.Keep hands, hair, clothing and jewelry clear of battery terminals.

2.Wear protective eye and clothing protection.

3.Connect the negative (black) inverter terminal cable to the power source negative battery terminal. Connect the positive (red) inverter terminal cable to the power source positive terminal. Make sure the connections are secure.

Note: Failure to make the correct connections will result in blown fuses and permanent damage to the inverter.
