OPERATOR’S MANUAL
Thank you for purchasing your ITM Inverter Generator. This generator is equipped with
an industrial quality engine with a sophisticated 3 way cooling system to lower the running
temperature and extend engine life. A large volume muffler increases fuel efficiency and
reduces noise and a permanent magnet inverter with E.S.C. (Engine Smart Control)
intelligently controls rpm to further reduce noise and fuel consumption giving you the ideal
pure sine wave generator for the busy tradesman.
Whether you take them onto the jobsite to power corded tools & machinery, use it to power
your appliances and devices on your weekend camping trip or at home in emergency
power outages, ITM inverter generators also have the added feature of parallel connection
capability, this means that when you join any two ITM inverter generators together in parallel
connection, you get the full combined rated power output whenever you need it. Keep your
options open and add power as and when your demand changes.
Please read and understand the content of this manual for safety guidelines, start-up, shut-
down, operation, adjustment and maintenance instructions before using this product. Take
all possible precautions to protect your own safety and that of the people in the immediate
vicinty.

TM523-7000 INVERTER GENERATOR
OPERATOR’S MANUAL
GENERAL SAFETY RULES FOR OPERATION
Never use the generator in a location that is wet or damp. Never expose the generator to rain,
snow, water spray or standing water while in use. Protect the generator from all hazardous weather
conditions. Moisture or ice can cause a short circuit or other malfunction in the electrical circuit.
Voltage produced by the generator could result in death or serious injury.
• Never operate the generator in rain or a flood plain unless proper precautions are taken to avoid
being subject to rain or a flood.
• Never use worn or damaged extension cords.
• Always have a licensed electrician connect the generator to the utility circuit.
• Never touch an operating generator if the generator is wet or if you have wet hands.
• Never operate the generator in highly conductive areas such as around metal decking or steel
works.
• Always use grounded extension cords. Always use three-wire or double-insulated power tools.
• Never touch live terminals or bare wires while the generator is operating.
• Be sure the generator is properly grounded before operating.
Never modify the generator.
Never operate the generator if it
vibrates at high levels, if engine
speed changes greatly or if the
engine misfires often.
Always disconnect tools or
appliances from the generator
before starting.
Never operate the generator if powered items overheat,
electrical output drops, there is sparking, flames or
smoke coming from the generator, or if the receptacles
are damaged.
Never use the generator to power medical support
equipment.
Always remove any tools or other service equipment
used during maintenance from the generator before
operating.
Petrol and petrol vapors are extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
• Always refuel the generator outdoors, in a well-ventilated area.
• Never remove the fuel cap with the engine running.
• Never refuel the generator while the engine is running. Always turn engine off and allow the
generator to cool before refueling.
• Only fill fuel tank with petrol.
• Keep sparks, open flames or other form of ignition (such as match, cigarette, static electric source
away when refueling.
• Never overfill the fuel tank. Leave room for fuel to expand. Overfilling the fuel tank can result in a
sudden overflow of petrol and result in spilled petrol coming in contact with HOT surfaces. Spilled
fuel can ignite. If fuel is spilled on the generator, wipe up any spills immediately. Dispose of rag
properly. Allow area of spilled fuel to dry before operating the generator.
• Wear eye protection while refueling.
• Never use petrol as a cleaning agent.
• Store any petrol containers in a well-ventilated area, away from any source of ignition.
• Check for fuel leaks after refueling. Never operate the engine if a fuel leak is discovered.
Never operate the generator in an enclosed area. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide. Only
operate the generator outside and away from windows, doors and vents.

OPERATOR’S MANUAL
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR GENERATORS
Do not force the generator. Use the correct generator for your application. The correct generator will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
Do not use the generator if the engine switch does not turn it on and off. Any generator that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Know exactly how to use the generator correctly. Be thoroughly familiar with proper use of the equipment
and all engine controls, output receptacles, and connections. Know how to stop the engine quickly (see
“Stopping the Generator”).
Instruct operators. The engine owner must instruct all operators in safe engine set-up and operation.
Only trained adults should set up and operate the engine – Do not let children operate.
Intended use. Carefully read about and understand the intended use of this engine. Do not use for other
purposes, as unforeseen hazards or equipment damage may result.
Never operate, or let anyone else operate the generator while under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or
medication.
Do not operate the generator with damaged, missing, or broken parts.
Do not modify the generator in any way. Modifications can create serious safety hazards and will also
void the warranty.
Never attempt to modify the generator speed setting. The generator speed is preset for safe and optimal
performance of the generator. If speed needs adjusting, it must be done by factory authorised personnel.
Never attempt to connect external fuel sources in order to increase generator run time. Larger tank at
pressure or higher elevation will cause to leak from carburetor during operation. Fire or explosion could
result.
Always turn off generator and remove spark plug(s) or spark plug wire(s) before working on the
generator to prevent accidental starting. Always discharge the capacitor before working on the generator
head to prevent electrical shock. (See Maintenance & Repair section of this manual for instructions on
how to do this.)
The running of a generator gives off carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that can kill you. You CAN NOT
smell it, see it, or taste it. Follow all instructions for site selection and positioning the generator, and
avoid inhaling the exhaust. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the generator, shut off the
generator and get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon monoxide poisoning.

OPERATOR’S MANUAL
USAGE
NEVER exceed the rated wattage capacity of your generator. OVERLOADING may cause SERIOUS
DAMAGE to the generator and attached electrical devices and may result in fire.
WARNING
! !
Your generator MUST BE SIZED PROPERLY to provide both the running and starting (surge) wattage
of the devices you will be powering. Before using your generator, determine the running and starting
wattage requirements of all the electrical devices you will be powering simultaneously. Following below 4
simple steps and example on the right:
Step 1. Determine the tools and appliances you want to power at the
same time
Step 2. List the start up and running power usage (Watts) for each
product
Step 3. Add the total power usage and add 10% as a safety net
Step 4. Choose a generator with a rated and maximum power that equals or exceeds your totals. In
this case a generator with a rated power of at least 3108W and a maximum power output greater than
7233W would be required.
STARTING POWER CONSUMPTION
Electronic appliances and brushed motors generally will not draw more than running Watts at start up.
Induction motors in equipment like air conditioners, welders, water pumps and compressors can draw
2 to 5 times their running power to start. Please consult your equipment’s rating label, manual or the
manufacturer to confirm specific requirement. If only the running wattage is given on the nameplate for
a device with an electric motor, the starting wattage can be approximated to be three to five times the
running wattage. Estimates for the running wattage requirements for common devices are listed in the
table below. Guidance for starting wattages is provided in the table’s footnotes. To size your generator
correctly you need to use Watts - here are some useful calculations:
Watts = Volts x Amps Example 240 Volts x 5 Amps = 1200 Watts
(a) Hard-starting motors require 3-5 times the rated running watts (b) For extremely hard to start loads such as air conditioners and
air compressors, consult the equipment dealer to determine max wattage.
