SOLAR Power Inverter USER'S MANUAL
When connecting device/appliance power cords to the inverter, pull on the plug and
never on the wire when disconnecting. Do not operate a device/appliance with a
damaged power cord.
To avoid battery drain, always disconnect your SOLAR power inverter when not in
use.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Assessing the Capacity of Your SOLAR Power Inverter to Power a
Specific Device
When you first switch on a powered tool or appliance that utilizes a motor, that device
requires an initial surge of power. This initial surge of power required to start the
device is referred to as the "peak power". After initial start-up the device then requires
less power to operate, which is referred to as its "continuous power".
It is important that you determine both the "peak power" and "continuous power"
demands of any device you plan to operate using your power inverter. The power
demands of any particular device are usually stamped or printed on the device and
are usually expressed in either Wattage (Watts) or Amperes (Amps). If this information
is not indicated or the device, reference that device's owner's manual or contact the
manufacturer to ensure that it is compatible with a modified sine wave power source.
To determine the power needs of a particular device, use the following formulas:
Amps Indicated x 110 (AC Voltage) = Watts
(This Wattage amount is roughly equivalent to the "continuous power" demand
Watts x 2 = "Peak Power"
(This is roughly equivalent to the initial "peak power" demand of the device at start-up)
In most cases, the "peak power" demand of the device is the determining factor in
whether your power inverter has the capacity to power that device. To determine
whether your inverter has the capacity to power a specific device, test that device
using your power inverter.
Your SOLAR power inverter is designed to automatically shut down in the event of
a power overload. This feature protects the inverter in the event that you attempt
to power a device with a power demand exceeding the inverter's capacity.
If a specific device that is close to the maximum operating range of your power
inverter will not power properly using the power inverter, turn the inverter power
switch (I), (O) and (I) again in quick succession. If this procedure is
ON OFF ON
not successful, it is likely that your power inverter does not have the capacity to
operate that particular device.
In the event the automatic shut down protection occurs or the inverter sounds a
continuous audible alarm, turn the power inverter immediately. Do not re-start the
OFF
SOLAR power inverter until the source of the problem has been identified and
corrected.
