STARTING OPERATION
Install the device on a plane surface.
The fluid tank of the device needs to be filled with smoke fluid before starting up operation and always
disconnected from the mains as fluid could be spilled.
Only use quality smoke fluids available at your dealer. We recommend high-quality Eurolite smoke fluids
(e.g. Eurolite Smoke Fluid "P" professional, 5 l). You must not use substances that are classified as
"dangerous working material" or "inflammable fluids".
If fluid should get into the interior of the device, disconnect from mains immediately and consult a technician.
Installation
Install the device in a well-ventilated area. The operation in an unsufficiently ventilated room can lead to a
condensation of the smoke fluid. The resulting slippery surface can cause accidents. Keep a minimum
distance of 20 cm around and above the device.
Furthermore do not orientate the escape nozzle directly in the direction of the audience's eyes. In order to
create a good effect, there should be a distance between the device and the audience of at least 1.5 m.
Only install the smoke-machine on fire-resistant, scratch-resistant and water-resistant surfaces.
Please make sure that the inclination angle does not exceed 15°.
This device is constructed for a standing or hanging installation. If the device is to be installed overhead, the
following safety instructions are binding:
DANGER TO LIFE!
Please consider the
nd the respective national norms during the
installation! The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer!
EN 60335-1:1996 a
The installation of the device has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for
1 hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net.
This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down
if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the device staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges,
under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an
expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another
time.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an
expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by a
skilled person once a year.
Procedure:
When hanging, the device must not be installed in areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to)
calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all
installation material and the device. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself,
but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and or
damage to property.
