Thank you for purchasing the POWERDRIVE2000 power inverter, a high performance solution to using household power while on the road. Please read and understand all of the information provided in this manual before operating or installing. If properly used, the inverter will give you years of reliable service providing AC power for TVs, computers, appliances, stereos and power tools. For safe and optimum performance, the inverter must be installed and used properly. Carefully read and follow th

CAUTION: DO NOT connect the RPPD2000 to live AC power circuits. Damage to the inverter will result even if the power switch is in the OFF position. DO NOT connect any AC device which has its neutral conductor connected to ground. DO NOT expose the RPPD2000 to air temperatures in excess of 104°F. DO NOT use the RPPD2000 on the following items: 1. Small battery-operated appliances such as flashlights, razors and nightlights that can be plugged directly into an AC outlet to recharge. 2. Certain ba

INSTALLATION: Selecting a suitable location The RPPD2000 must be installed in an area that meets the following requirements in order to operate safely and provide optimum performance: 1. DRY: DO NOT expose the unit to moisture. 2. COOL: Ambient air temperature should be between 32°F and 104°F. Cooler areas are best. 3. VENTILATION: Allow at least 4 inches of clearance above and around all sides and top of the unit for proper cooling. 4. SAFE: DO NOT install the RPPD2000 in a compartment with bat

Connect the Power Cables to the Inverter: Connect cable to the Power Input Terminals on input end of the inverter. The red terminal is positive (+) and the black terminal is negative (-). Unscrew the terminal on the inverter and install the appropriate color (black to black and red to red) ring-terminal of the cables and tighten the screws to clamp the wires securely. NOTE: It is a good idea to check and tighten these screws from time to time. They can become loose by vibrations or thermal cycli

CAUTION: Never disconnect the DC cables from the inverter without first disconnecting the cables from the battery or potentially lethal electricity will be left exposed. NOTE: The Power Button turns the control circuit in the inverter on and off. It does not disconnect power from the inverter. When the button is in the off position, the inverter draws no current from the battery. When it’s in the on position, but no power is being supplied to a load, the inverter draws less than ½ amp from the

Low Voltage Protection: If the DC input voltage drops below the alarm threshold of 10.5V the meter will flash (LUP) to indicate Low Voltage Protection, but the unit will continue to operate. If the input voltage drops to 10.0V or less, the inverter will shut down to protect itself, the meter will continue to flash (LUP), and an alarm will sound. To restore normal operation, return the DC input voltage to at least 12V. The inverter will automatically return to normal operation. High Voltage Prote

NOTE: The wattage rating applies to resistive loads. The inverter will operate most AC loads within its power rating. Some induction motors used in freezers, pumps, and other motor-operated equipment require very high surge currents to start. The inverter may not be able to start some of these motors even though their rated current draw is within the inverter’s limits. Operating time will vary depending upon the type, capacity charge level of the battery, and the power draw of the AC products y
