- 3 - MAINTENANCE
3.1 CLEANING AND STORAGE
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. Cleaning your fog machine regularly can help
you to reduce the frequency of parts replacement and the cost of maintenance.
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.
If the fog machine is not in use, please clean it before storage. Store the fog machine in a dry and cool
place. At least operate the fog machine once a month. A “test-run” consists of warming-up the machine
followed by a few minutes of fog emission.
