Maintenance
Do not allow the fog liquid to become contaminated. Always replace the caps on the fog
liquid container and the fog machine liquid tank immediately after filling.
After every 40 hours of continuous operation, it is recommended to run a cleaning solution
composed of 80% distilled water/20% white vinegar through the system to prevent the
accumulation of particulate matter in the heating element. The recommended cleaning
regimen is as follows:
1. While unit is unplugged and cool, unscrew nozzle at very front of unit and clean out debris
with vinegar and a pipe cleaner, making sure that the hole is free of clogs.
2. Empty all fog fluid from machine. Add cleaning solution to tank. Plug unit in and begin
warm up.
3. Run unit in a well-ventilated area until tank is empty.
4. Replace nozzle.
5. Cleaning is now complete. Refill with fog liquid.
Note: All fog machines are prone to clogging due to the thick consistency of fog fluid and the
high temperature at which it vaporizes. However, a properly maintained fog machine should
provide years of reliable use.
Clean with a dry cloth only.
Store dry.
Performance Notes
♦
All fog machines develop condensation around the output nozzle. Because this may
result in some moisture accumulation on the surface below the output nozzle, consider
this condensation when installing your unit.
♦
All fog machines may sputter small amounts of fog occasionally during operation and for a
minute or so after being turned off.
♦
All fog machines have a recycling period after long bursts when the machine will shut itself
down for a short period in order to heat back up. During this time no fog can be produced.
The green “READY” L.E.D. on the remote will be off during this time and will light up again
when the machine is ready.
