If the unit is to be put out of operation defini-
tively, take it to a local recycling plant for a
disposal which is not harmful to the environ-
ment.
3 Applications
By vaporizing a fog fluid, this fog machine will create
artificial fog which can be used to enhance any light
effects (e. g. in discotheques, on stage, in party rooms).
The cable remote control provided allows to oper-
ate the fog machine in three modes (manual mode,
continuous mode and timer mode). As an alternative to
the remote control, the unit can also be operated via a
DMX controller with DMX512 protocol. Thus, it is eas-
ily integrated into a professional lighting system.
4 Filling Up Fog Fluid
WARNING 1. While filling up fog fluid, the unit must
not be connected to the mains.
Always disconnect the mains plug
from the socket before filling up!
2. Never add flammable fluids of any
kind to the fog fluid! Explosion hazard!
3. The unit is not splashproof. If fluid
gets inside the unit, it must be
cleaned and checked by skilled per-
sonnel before it is operated.
1) Unscrew the tank cap (2).
2) Fill up the tank with fog fluid (
fluid is spilt, wipe it off immediately with a cloth so
that it will not get inside the unit.
3) Tightly close the tank.

5 Setting Up/Installing the Unit
G
The heat generated within the unit must be dissi-
pated by air circulation. Make sure that a minimum
space of 20 cm is provided around and above the
unit and that the air vents of the housing are not
covered.
G
During operation the fog output nozzle will become
very hot. Always ensure a minimum distance of
50 cm to easily flammable material or material sen-
sitive to heat.
G
Adjust the unit so that the hot fog stream will not
directly hit persons – risk of burns!
Remove the complete packaging material. Make sure
that there are no packaging remnants at the fog output
nozzle.
Place the unit on a horizontal surface or mount it via
its bracket (1) [e. g. on a cross arm via a mounting clip].
For exact horizontal adjustment of the unit slightly
release the two screws (4) on both sides of the mount-
ing bracket, readjust the position of the unit, then
retighten the two screws.
WARNING Mount the unit safely and expertly. If the
unit is installed at a place where people
may walk or sit under it, additionally
secure it (e. g. by a safety rope at the
bracket; fasten the safety rope in such a
way that, in the event of a fall, the max-
imum falling distance of the unit will not
exceed 20 cm).
Note: Fog machines will develop condensation around
the fog output nozzle. When selecting a mounting
place, take into account that moisture will accumulate
below the nozzle.
6 Connection for Remote Control
Connect the remote control provided to the jack RE -
MOTE CONTROL ONLY (8).
7 Connection and Address Adjustment
for DMX Control
7.1 Connection
As a DMX interface, the unit has 3-pole XLR connec-
tions (pin configuration: 1 = ground, 2 = DMX-, 3 =
DMX+). For connection, special cables for high data
flow should be used. Standard microphone cables with
screening and a minimum cross section of 2 ×
0,22 mm
2
and with a capacity as low as possible can
only be recommended for a total cable length of up to
100 m. For cable lengths exceeding 150 m it is recom-
mended to insert a DMX level matching amplifier (e. g.
SR-103DMX by "img Stage Line").
