Basic service 

 

Before servicing the Magnum smoke machine, read and observe all the 
precautions listed in “Safety information” on page 3. Any service not described in 
this section must be carried out by a Martin service technician. 

C l e a n i n g  

Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and dirt buildup will degrade performance and 
cause overheating and damage to the machine that is not covered by the 

product warranty. To maintain adequate cooling, dust must be cleaned from the 
outer casing and air vents of the machine periodically. 

 

 
Isolate the machine from power and allow to cool completely before cleaning. 
The smoke output nozzle remains hot for up to 10 hours after use. 

 

 

Remove dust from the air vents with a soft brush, cotton swab, vacuum, 

or compressed air. 

 

Clean smoke fluid residues from the fog output of the machine using a 

damp cloth. 

 

Clean the outer casing with a damp cloth only.

The main fuse for the Magnum 850 smoke machine is located on the electronics 
board inside the unit. The fuse for the Magnum 650 is located in a tray on the 
mains connector. 
 

 

DANGER! Disconnect the power supply before removing any covers. Live parts 
inside! 

 
850: To replace the fuse, disconnect the power cord from the supply, unscrew 

the screws holding the top cover of the unit and remove the cover. The 
electronics board is located at the back of the unit near the remote control 
sockets. Remove the fuse holder cover and pull out the fuse. 
 

650: To replace the fuse, disconnect the power cord from the mains plug on the 
rear panel. Using a screwdriver, pull out the small fuse compartment underneath 
the plug. Lift out the fuse. 
 
Remove the spent fuse and replace with one of exactly the same size and rating. 

The fuse type is indicated below. Contact Martin Service if the fuse blows 
repeatedly.
