SETUP
•
Remove all packing materials from shipping box, check that all foam and plastic padding is removed,
especially in the nozzle area.
•
Place fog machine on a flat surface and remove fog liquid tank cap.
•
Fill with fog liquid or other high-quality water-based fog fluid. Any other types of fluid can damage that unit.
When filled, place cap back on liquid tank. Techni-Lux, ELITE fogging fluids are available to create many
different types of effects. It is highly suggested that you use ELITE fogging fluids for best performance.
•
Firmly attach remote control cable to the proper input on the rear of the machine. Labeled REMOTE
CONTROL.
OPERATION
•
Plug power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. If necessary, turn power switch on rear of unit to “1” On
position; warm-up is complete when green lamp lights up on remote unit.
•
To emit fog, press the appropriate button on the remote for the desired length of time.
•
The remote unit’s lamp will cycle on and off as the machine re-heats to the proper operating temperature.
When the unit goes below a particular operating temperature, it may stop producing fog output, until it reaches
its ideal temperature again.
•
For further information on operating your Fog Machine, see the section titled, “Remote CONTROL
OPERATION”.
•
If your model includes a mounting bracket designed for overhead installation, it may be installed at floor level
or suspended overhead. If the unit is to be mounted using the bracket, it is important that the fog does not shoot
directly at anyone’s face. Whatever installation method you choose, do not allow the unit to have more than a
15 degree angle of inclination.
Important: Always monitor tank fluid level as you are fogging, running a fog machine with no fluid can
permanently damage the unit.
If you experience low output, pump noise or no output at all, unplug immediately. Check fluid level, the external
fuse, remote connection, and power from the wall, if all of the above appears to be OKAY, plug the unit in again.
The pump may make some noise while priming fluid for the first time or if out of fluid. If fog does not come out
after warm-up and holding the remote button down for 30 seconds, check the hose attached to the tank to make sure
there is fluid going through the hose. If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not simply
continue pushing the remote button, as this may damage the unit. Return the machine to your dealer.
