1. Ensure that any operation of the machine is supervised by suitably trained and authorized personnel.
2. Do not modify the machine or use a machine which has been damaged in any way.
3. Allow sufficient air circulation around the machine at all times.
4. Protect the machine from direct weather effects and wet locations.
5. Only use fluids manufactured by Ultratec Special Effects.
6. Do not continue to produce fog when visibility is reduced to 20” 50cm or below.
7. Avoid directing fog output continuously at people, structures or objects within close proximity of the 
    discharge nozzle.
8. Ensure that adequate exhausting arrangements are available in the event of an emergency.
9. Do not place hands or exposed skin within the first 20” (50 cm) of the discharge nozzle at any time 
    during fog production.
10. Fog effects can trigger smoke alarms and detectors. Please take suitable precautions to prevent false    
     alarms.

Important Safety Instructions

Introduction

The Power Fogger Industrial 9D is a Microprocessor Controlled, Water Based Fog generating system.

Water Base Fog Technology

Water Base Fog technology is achieved by pumping a glycol/water mixture through a heat exchanger. This 
will vaporize the fluid as it passes through the processing block. The vaporization of the fluid forces the hot 
mixture through the output nozzle. When mixed with ambient air, it forms an opaque aerosol (fog). The fog 
is made up of tiny droplets that form around small particles in the air. The suspended droplets refract the 
light, allowing the fog to take on the color of the light illuminating it.

1. Do not touch, place hands or expose skin within 20” (50 cm) of the discharge nozzle.
2. Do not remove the outer case.
3. Persons suffering from asthma or allergenic sensitivity may experience irritation, discomfort or allergic
     symptoms when exposed to fog effects.
4. Ensure that this unit is grounded at all times. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
5. Use Ultratec Special Effects fluid ONLY.
