SETTING UP
The Vapour Plus should be located on a secure, solid surface such as the floor. The machine can operate
vertically or horizontally by inserting the fluid bottle into the appropriate opening of the bottle holder.
Tilting of the machine from either orientation should be limited to 45 degrees. Take precautions to avoid
fluid spills if the machine is oriented at an angle.
Fluid Set Up
Only use genuine Rosco fog fluids in your Vapour Plus machine. The use of any other fluid will void your
warranty, may damage the equipment, and may cause health hazards.
For convenience, the Vapour Plus is designed with a detachable bottle holder that will hold a 4-Litre or
5-Litre bottle of fog fluid. To attach the bottle holder to the unit, line up the keyhole openings on the
bottle holder with the mounting hardware on the right side of the machine and push down to secure.
Place the fluid bottle into the compartment. Feed the fluid inlet hose into the bottle of fog fluid, ensuring
that the filter, located at the end of the tube is fully submerged in fluid. Slide the bottle cap along the tube
and tighten the cap onto the bottle. Take precautions to avoid fluid spills.
All Rosco fog and haze machines are primed at the factory with a small amount of fluid. No additional
priming should be necessary for proper fog output. If fog output is diminished or intermittent, see the
Priming the System section of this manual for instructions on how to re-prime the fluid path.
Power Connections
Ensure that the machine is plugged into an outlet rated for the proper voltage and amperage. The Vapour
Plus is a 1,500 watt device and will draw 6.5A at 230 VAC or 12.6A at 115 VAC. Note: 230 volt machines are
shipped with bare leads at the end of the power cord. A proper electrical connector must be attached based
on the local power requirements. If unsure how to do this, please contact Rosco or your local Rosco dealer for
assistance. An example of properly wiring a UK 13A connector is shown below
