open area out in front and can travel 12ft (4m) without restriction. Place the front of the machine
away from direct contact with electrical instruments and people. Always allow plenty of air
circulation to allow the haze to expand, separate and enlarge. Proper circulation of the haze is
important. Place the hazer at the opposite side of the room from the return air-conditioning duct to
help cause the haze to circulate evenly, without curls of haze or hot spots. For large rooms, use a
long-distance fan like the Director Fan
TM
or Director Jr. Fan
TM
. This evens the haze for quicker
balance. You will quickly see the double fans are filtered, and spread haze more rapidly.

Electrical Power Requirements
This machine requires a separate circuit for operation. The StarHazer II
TM
Haze Machine
During operation this circuit should be dedicated to the Haze Machine. If you have any
doubts about the capacity or grounding of your existing circuits, consult a qualified
electrician. Do not add other equipment on this circuit.

Hooking things up
1.
Pour
½
- 1
½
quarts High Performance
™
hazing fluid into top fill spout. Use of any other fluids
will void your warranty.
Do not overfill!
Check fill window to see that the fluid does not go past
fill arrow.
Never use water based fluids
. This will clog the tubing, causing irreversible damage
to the tank and possibly damaging the compressor or hoses.
2.
Check for proper matching voltage outlet. Plug in cord provided.
5.4
Operating the machine
1.
Allow a 12’ open area around machine for circulation of haze (do
not enclose).
2.
The upper switch located next to the power switch says “Direct”
and “Controls”. Place the switch in upper position for operation of
the machine without the use of any controls – controls that are
plugged in will not work when the switch is “up” on “Direct”.
When wanting any of the controls like the remote or DMX to
operate, place the switch “down” to use.
3.
When the power switch is turned on, the light on the switch will
illuminate. Remote, DMX or 100vac control plug must be
plugged in to operate machine.
4.
For cycle-timing of the haze, you must use the remote control.
The red “on/off” button must be depressed for “Timer” or “Haze”
functions to work. The fan comes on when the timer cycle begins
and goes off when the cycle ends. The fan goes on or off each
time you press haze. Haze will fill a 300-500 seat auditorium
within 15-30 minutes. The absolute cleanest haze is when you
keep a light haze by using the cycle-timer. The haze from the
StarHazer II
TM
Haze Machine is recommended to be used for 10-20 minutes initially (depending
on the size of the auditorium), and then “on” for up to 2 minutes every 1 – 4 minutes “off”
