Step 2: Mounting the Inverter/Charger
Considerations
Before mounting the Freedom SW 2000, take the following two factors into account.
1.The weight of the inverter/charger requires two people to install it.
2.Mounting considerations are shown in Figure 1 on page 18.
HEAVY LOAD
The Freedom SW 2000 Inverter/Charger is heavy (see “Inverter/Charger Physical Specifications” on page 36). The unit is too heavy for one person to safely lift and mount. Xantrex recommends that two people lift and mount the unit. Always use proper lifting techniques during installation to prevent personal injury.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in minor or moderate injury.
The Freedom SW 2000 approved mounting orientations are illustrated in Figure 1 on page 18.
Mount your inverter/charger before you connect any wires or cables.
