Important:

Pay attention to all warning labels and instructions printed on the exterior of your ANTARI

X-310PRO Fazer.

-Unpacking & Inspection

Open the shipping carton and verify that all equipment necessary to operate the system has
arrived intact.
Before beginning initial setup of your ANTARI Fazer Machine, make sure that there is no evident
damage caused by transportation. In the event that the unit's housing or cable is damaged, do not
plug it in and do not attempt to use it until after contacting your ANTARI dealer for assistance.

-Packaging

The shipping carton should include the following items:

1. X-310PRO Fazer machine with power cable

2. X-10PRO Control module

3. Fluid tank

4. User manual

4

Optional Accessories:

MANUAL

1. X-30PRO Wireless Control Module

2. FX-310 X-310PRO Flightcase

-Setup

1. Remove all packing materials from shipping box. Check that all foam and plastic padding is
removed, especially in the nozzle area.

2. Place fog machine on a flat surface and remove fog liquid tank cap.

3. Fill with only Antari Fog Fluid. Antari X-310PRO Fazer only works with uncontaminated Antari
FLG Fog Fluid. Other fluids may cause spitting and serious clogging problem and could result
in the production of an unhealthful fog. The use of other fluids will void the warranty of the
Antari X-310PRO Fazer. When filled, place cap back on liquid tank.

-Operation

1. The plug is at a position that is accessible when the machine is in use.

2. Plug power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. Turn power switch on rear of unit to "
ON" position. Warm-up is complete after approx. 8 minutes when the display on the control
module indicates "Ready to Fazer”.

3. To emit fog, please set the desired settings on your X-10PRO Control Module for interval,
duration, and press the appropriate button on the control module for the desired
length of time.

4. The control unit's display will cycle "Warming up" and "Ready to Fazer" while the machine
re-heats to the proper operating temperature.

5. When the fluid is running low, the LED inside the tank chamber starts blinking for two minutes
and then stops the operation to protect the pump from running dry.

6. The “Fanleaf” design can be adjusted by the pump-type screws on both sides to position the
faze output angle. In general, the haze produced from the X-310PRO Fazer is
semi-transparent due to fan spread. Thus, it is best to position it on the low ground and let it
produce haze upwardly to have ideal coverage.

7. For further information on operating your ANTARI X-310PRO Fazer, see the section titled,
"Control Module Operation" on page 4.

Caution: "Visibility during operation is reduced"

Important:

Always monitor tank fluid level as you are fogging. Running a fog machine with no fluid can
permanently damage the pump.

If you experience low output, pump noise or no output at all, unplug immediately. Check fluid level,
the external fuse, control module connection, and power from the wall. If all of the above appears
to be O.K., plug the unit in again. If fog does not come out after holding the button down for

5

30 seconds, check the hose attached to the tank to make sure there is fluid going through the hose.
If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not simply continue pushing the
control module button, as this may damage the unit. Return the machine to your ANTARI dealer
immediately.

MANUAL

There are 3-pin and 5-pin male/female DMX control sockets for connecting your selection located
at the rear panel of the X-310PRO fazer. The X-310PRO Fazer has on-board DMX control. This model
uses two channels to control Volume output and Fan speed. Whatever channel you select on the
unit, the channel next to it will automatically be selected for fan volume control. The X-310PRO fan
has three fan speeds: Slow, Medium, and Fast. If the machine was assigned to the DMX address
124 e.g., Channel A would correspond to DMX address 124 and channel 125 will automatically be
selected for fan control.

Please note: Your X-310PRO Fazer and its liquid tank and tube were thoroughly tested and cleaned.
When operating the unit for the time, please press the button MANUAL for 3 to 5 seconds to
let the unit circulate. Please do not try to set the timer function on your first operation. In addition,
it is normal for the machine to produce some pumping sound for about 3 to 5 seconds. After the
machine is operating smoothly you can start to set the desired operating functions. In future, it is
strongly recommended to empty the liquid tank before transporting and follow the methods
mentioned above for machine circulation after each transportation.

Channel A (Fan speed)

In general, fan speed and fog density are in reverse propotion. For example, if you are operating
at 100% fog output, and fan speed is slow, heavy fog is being produced. When fan speed is high,
fog density is consequently lighter/more transparent.

Channel B (Volume control)

If Channel B has a value from 0 to 5, the unit is OFF.
Between the values 6 to 255 the volume of fog output is regulated. With 6 being the minimum
volume of fog produced and 255 the maximum. The volume output rises as the DMX value is
increased. The Antari X-310PRO Fazer can produce maximum continuous output.

-Maintenance & Storage

 Do not allow the fog liquid to become contaminated. Always replace the caps on the fog liquid

 Clean with a dry cloth only. Store dry. Cleaning your fog machine regularly will help reduce

costly replacement and repair charges.

Note: All fog machines are prone to clogging due to the thick consistency of fog liquid and the

high temperature at which it vaporizes. It is strongly recommended that after 2,000 hours
of operation, do regular maintenance and services. A properly maintained fog machine
should provide years of reliable use.

 It is strongly recommended to test-run the machine on a monthly basis in order to achieve its

best fogging condition. A test-run consists of warming up the machine followed by a few
minutes of emission. Then please cool down the machine.

-Performance Notes

 It is recommended that you set Fan output to 100% and Fog Volume output between 15 to

20%. This setting will guarantee continuous output of very fine haze effect. Press button
