Operating instructions
Installation:
Place the unit on a level surface.
Always disconnect it from the mains supply before filling as fluid could be spilled.
If fluid should get inside the main housing, disconnect the unit from the mains immediately
and consult a technician.
Install the unit in a well-ventilated area. Use in an insufficiently ventilated room can lead to the
condensation of the foam fluid. The resulting slippery surface can cause accidents. Keep a minimum
distance of 3m around the unit.
Furthermore do not orientate the output aperture directly in the direction of the audience’s eyes.
In order to create the best effect, there should be a distance between the unit and the audience
of at least 5m.
Only install the foam machine on fire resistant, scratch resistant and water resistant surfaces.
This unit is constructed for a free standing installation only. The unit can be used whilst in the base of
the flightcase with the lid removed. Make sure all brakes are applied to the flightcase and the unit.
The operator must always make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by an expert before operation for the first time and after any further changes are made.
The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations
are approved by a qualified person once a year.
Important:
Please make sure you connect a substantial fluid source as 25 litres of fluid will only produce a
maximum of 20 seconds full on foam output. Do not allow the fluid source to run dry.
To prevent the unit from overheating it is advised after 20 minutes on continuous operation you stop the
unit outputting foam for approx. 10 minutes so the unit can cool down.
At the end of each operation water must be run through the pump to prevent seizure.
DANGER OF FIRE!
When installing the unit, make sure there is no highly flammable
material (decoration articles etc) within a minimum distance of 3m
DANGER TO LIFE!
Disconnect from the mains before starting maintenance
Only use quality snow fluids recommended by your dealer. You must
not use substances which are classified as ‘DANGEROUS WORKING
MATERIALS’ or ‘FLAMMABLE FLUIDS’.
