To connect the Champion 500319-N Parallel Kit to your inverters, follow these steps:

1. Make sure the inverters are turned off and all electrical loads are disconnected before installing the parallel kit.
2. Align the inverters in the same direction in a "V" configuration, with a minimum distance of 18 inches (45 cm) apart.
3. Clamp the parallel kit to the left handle of the inverter on the left side of the "V".
4. On each inverter, remove the connector end cap and insert the RED power lead into the RED receptacle and the BLACK power lead into the BLACK receptacle.
5. On each inverter, connect the grounding wire to the grounding terminal on the inverter.
6. Start the engine of both inverters according to the inverter Owner's Manual. Observe the green output indicator light on both inverter panels. The light will blink during start-up and will be solid when loads may be connected.
7. Connect your devices to the parallel or inverter panels up to the receptacles' rated amperage. Never exceed the specified capacity of the receptacle.
8. Follow the instructions in the inverter Owner's Manual for turning off the inverter.

Please note that this parallel kit is meant to parallel two ParaLINK compatible inverters together. Both inverters must have ParaLINK parallel receptacles. Do not use this parallel kit to connect inverters without ParaLINK receptacles.
