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.

To TUrn on:

1.  Push  the  rocker  switch,  located 

on  the  right  side,  to  the  “ON”  (I) 

position.  The  LED  indicator  light 

should glow GREEN verifying the 

inverter is receiving power and can 

deliver power to your device. (A brief 

audio alarm may sound or red LED 

may flash. This is normal.) 

2.   Turn on the power source or device 

to be powered.

noTe:

 If more than two devices are to 

be powered, start one device at a time to 

avoid a power surge and overloading the 

inverter. The surge load of each device 

should not exceed 2000 watts. 
You  can  use  an  extension  cord  from 

the inverter to the device without sig-

nificantly decreasing the power being 

generated  by  the  inverter.  For  best 

operating  results,  the  extension  cord 

should be no longer than 50 feet.

SoUrCe

1.  Keep  hands,  hair,  clothing  and 

jewelry clear of battery terminals.

2.  Wear protective eye (safety glasses) 

and clothing protection.

3.  Connect the negative (black) inverter 

terminal cable to the power source 

or  negative  (-)  battery  terminal. 

Connect the positive (red) inverter 

terminal cable to the power source 

or  positive  (+)  battery  terminal. 

Make  sure  the  connections  are 

secure.

noTe

: Failure to make the correct con-

nections will result in blown fuses and 

permanent damage to the inverter.

To TUrn off: 

1.  Push  the  rocker  switch,  located 

on the right side, to the “OFF” (O) 

position. 

2.  Turn off the power source and the 

device.

3.  Disconnect  inverter  from  power 

source and device.

4.  Wait for the inverter to be cool to the 

touch before disconnecting it from 

the power source. 

 

noTe:

 The PSI-2000 inverter and 

device should always be unplugged 

when not in use.
