- 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. After every 40 hours of
continuous operation, it is recommended to use distilled water to clean the heater as per following steps:
The recommended cleaning regimen is as follows:
1. Fill proper distilled water into a clean tank and connect the fluid tube of the fog machine to the tank.
2. Run the unit in a well-ventilated area until the tank is almost empty.
3. Use dry cloth to wipe the fog machine. Cleaning is now complete. Refill with fog liquid. Run the ma-
chine briefly to clear any remaining liquid from the pump and heater.
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 consisits of warming-up the machine
followed by a few minutes of fog emission.
