IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING :
THIS MANUAL CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING SAFETY, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE OF THIS PRODUCT. BEFORE USE, READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL CAUTIONS, WARNINGS, INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCT LABELS, PLUS YOUR GREENWORKS’S BATTERY MANUFACTURER GUIDELINES. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

To ensure reliable service, your power inverter must be installed and used properly. Please read the installation and operating instructions thoroughly prior to installation and use. Pay particular attention to the WARNING and CAUTION statements in this manual. The CAUTION statements advise against certain conditions and practices that may result in damage to your inverter. The WARNING statements identify conditions or practices that may result in personal injury. Read All Instructions Before Using This Power Inverter!

WARNING :
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR INJURY:

• Do not connect to AC distribution wiring.
• Remove appliance plug from outlet strip or turn off inverter before working on the appliance. Multiple outlet power strips with switches and circuit breakers only interrupt power to the “hot” receptacle terminals. The “neutral” terminals remain powered with respect to the “ground” terminals.
• Do not make any electrical connections or disconnections in areas designated as IGNITION PROTECTED.
• This is not a toy – keep away from children.
• DO NOT install object into air vents.

WARNING :
Reverse polarity connection will cause the unit to malfunction and may permanently damage the inverter.

CAUTIONS :

• Grounding the neutral will damage the inverter. Do not operate this inverter if it is wet. Do not install in engine compartment – please install in a well ventilated area.
• This inverter is not tested for use with medical devices.

POWER SOURCE REQUIREMENTS
The power source must able to supply the necessary current to operate the load. The GreenWorks 29652, 29662, 2907002 model battery pack is the only DC source, cannot connect to other DC source.

WARNING :
Keep ventilation when using batteries.
Cannot mount the power inverter on other position, can just install on the GreenWorks battery pack.

CONNECTION TO LOAD
The inverter is equipped with Type A and Type B AC power receptacle. Plug the cord from the equipment you wish to operate into the AC receptacle. The green LED indicator lights to indicate that the inverter is functioning. Make sure the combined load requirement of your equipment does not exceed inverter’s output rating.

The inverter is engineered to be connected directly to standard electrical and electronic equipment in the manner described above.
Do not connect the power inverter to household or RV AC distribution wiring.
Do not connect the power inverter to any AC load circuit in which the neutral conductor is connected to ground (earth) or to the negative of the DC (battery) source.

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

For best operating results, the inverter should be placed on flat surface, such as the ground, car
floor, or other solid surface. The inverter should only be used in locations that meet the following criteria:

DRY- Do not allow water and/or other liquids to come into contact with the power inverter.
COOL — Do not place the inverter on or near a heating vent or any piece of equipment which is generating heat above room temperature. Keep the inverter away from direct sunlight, if at all
possible.
SAFE — Do not use the inverter near flammable materials or in any locations that may
accumulate flammable fumes of gases.

PROTECTIVE FEATURES OF THE INVERTER

Your inverter monitors the following potentially hazardous conditions:
OVER TEMPERATURE PROTECTION – If the temperature inside the inverter is too high, the unit will automatically shut down. Allow the unit to cool for at least 15 minutes before restarting after a heat-related shutdown. Unplug unit while cooling.
LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE PROTECTION – This condition is not harmful to the inverter but could damage the power source. The inverter automatically shuts down when input voltage drops to 29.5 volts. When the condition is corrected, the unit may be restarted.
OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION – The inverter will automatically shut down when the input voltage exceeds 43 volts DC.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION – The inverter will automatically shut down when the continuous draw exceeds rated watts.
SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION – The inverter will shut down. Remove the short circuit and restart the inverter after 5 minutes.

WORKING PRINCIPLES

HOW YOUR INVERTER WORKS
The inverter converts low voltage DC (Direct Current) from a Greenworks 40V lithium battery to standard 115 volt AC (Alternating Current) household power.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The inverter converts power in two stages.

• The first stage is a DC to DC conversion process that raises the low voltage DC at the inverte input to high volts DC.
• The second stage is the actual inverter stage that converts the high voltage DC into AC.

The DC-to-DC converter stage uses modern high frequency power conversion techniques
that have replaced the bulky transformers found in less technologically- advanced models. The
inverter stage uses advanced power MOSFET transistors in a full bridge configuration.

THE OUTPUT WAVEFORM
The AC output waveform of the 9300000-series inverter is known as “modified sine wave”. It is
a waveform that has characteristics similar to the sine wave shape of utility power. This type of
waveform is suitable for most AC loads, including linear and switching power supplies used in
electronic equipment, transformers, and motors. (See Figure 1).

The modified sine wave produced by the 9300000-series inverter has an RMS (root mean square) voltage of 115 volts, which is the same as standard household power. Most AC voltmeters (both digital and analog) are sensitive to the average value of the waveform rather than the RMS value. They are calibrated for RMS voltage under the assumption that the waveform measured will be a pure sine wave. These meters will not read the RMS voltage of a modified sine wave correctly. They will read about 20 to 30 volts low when measuring the output of the inverter. For accurate measurement of the output voltage of this unit, use a true RMS reading voltmeter.
