INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the Shadow Nightfall Smoke Machine.  The Nightfall offers the  
perfect balance of performance, reliability and affordability. 

To ensure efficient and safe operation, please take a few moments to read this manual completely.  

The Shadow Nightfall is a thermal aerosol generator designed for continuous, variable  smoke  output.   
This machine is one part of a system, the other component being Rosco’s Smoke Simulation fluid.   ALL 
ROSCO FOG AND HAZE FLUIDS ARE UNIQUE WATER-BASED FORMULATIONS THAT CONTAIN NO PETRO-
LEUM DISTILLATES AND ARE SAFE WHEN USED ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS. The operating tempera-
ture, pump pressure, and output nozzle of the Nightfall have been specifically designed and engineered 
together to maximize the aerosolization of Rosco fog fluids. 

Do not use any fluids in the Nightfall other than genuine Rosco Smoke Simulation Fluids as they have not 
been tested for optimal performance and safety considerations.  Doing so may damage the machine and will 
void the warranty.

Note:  The terms “fog,”“haze” and “smoke” are used interchangeably throughout this manual. Tempest Shadow 
Smoke machines do not produce actual smoke, only a mist or aerosol
