The red
CONTINUOUS
button sets the
machine to constant fog production. To activate this function, depress
the red button. The volume knob can be used to regulate the volume of the steady stream of fog produced.
The green
MANUAL
button will produce a continuous blast at maximum volume while the button is held down.
When released, the manual function stops and the machine will return to the previous setting; timer,
continuous, or stationary.
Note:
The continuous function will override the Timer function. Therefore, if both buttons have been depressed
the Z-1200II will fog continuously. The manual function overrides all functions. When depressed and
held down the Z-1200II will fog at maximum volume for as long as the button is held down, regardless of
the machine’s setting at the time.
Performance Note
♦
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 up again. During this time no fog can be produced.
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 and 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.
Empty all fog liquid from machine. Add cleaning solution to tank. Plug unit in and begin warm up.
2.
Run unit in a well-ventilated area until tank is almost empty. Do not allow the pump to run dry.
3.
Cleaning is now complete. Refill with fog liquid. Run the machine briefly to clear any cleaning solution from the
pump and heater.
4.
Do not operate the fog machine without liquid at any time.
Note:
All fog machines are prone to clogging due to the thick consistency of fog liquid 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.
Cleaning your fog machine regularly will help reduce costly replacement and repair charges.
Storage
When storing run distilled water (not tap water) through the system as described in the cleaning regimen above.
This will help avoid any particles condensing inside the pump or heater.
Please read and save these instructions.
