Incorrect operation may lead to danger e.g. short-circuit, burns, electric shocks etc.
Do not endanger your own safety and the safety of others! Incorrect installation or use can cause serious damage to people and property.
Before fi lling the unit disconnect the mains. Never fi ll with hot liquids.
Only use high quality, water based smoke fl uid recommended by the manufacturer. Other smoke fl uids
may cause clogging and void the guarantee.
Always make sure there is suffi cient smoke fl uid in the tank. Operating this smoke machine without smoke fl uid will cause damage to the pump as well as over heating of the heater.
Operate the unit only after you have familiarized yourself with its functions, Do not permit operation by
persons not qualifi ed for operating the unit and always drain the tank and use the original packaging if the
unit is to be transported.
STARTING OPERATION
Install the unit on a level surface.
The fl uid tank of the unit needs to be fi lled with bubble fl uid before switching on. Always disconnected it from the mains supply as fl uid could be spilled.
Only use quality bubble fl uids recommended by your dealer. We recommend high quality bubble fl uids. You must not use substances which are classifi ed as
“DANGEROUS WORKING MATERIALS” or “FLAMMABLE FLUIDS”.
If fl uid should get inside the main housing, disconnect the unit from the mains immediately and
consult a technician.
INSTALLATION
Install the unit in a well-ventilated area. Use in an insuffi ciently ventilated room can lead to the condensation of the bubble fl uid. The resulting slippery surface can cause accidents. Keep a
minimum distance of 20cm around the unit.
Furthermore do not orientate the output directly in the direction of the audience’s eyes. In order to create the best effect, there should be a distance between the unit and the audience of at least
1.5M.
Only install the bubble machine on fi re resistant, scratch resistant and water resistant surfaces.
Please make sure that the installation angle does not exceed 15˚.
This unit is constructed for a free standing or hanging installation. If the unit is to be installed overhead, please follow the safety instructions below:
RIGGING INSTALLATION
The installation has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight of the
unit(s) to be installed for 1 hour without any deformation.
The unit must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net or safety wire. The secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installed unit can fall down if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing, do not allow personnel to be directly underneath the unit.
O P E R A T I O N
DANGER OF FIRE!
When installing the unit, make sure there is no highly fl ammable
material (decoration articles etc) within a minimum distance of 0.5M
The operator must always make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations
are approved by an expert before operation for the fi rst time and after any further changes
are made.
The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert after every four years in the form of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are
approved by a qualifi ed person once a year.
PROCEDURE
When hanging, the unit 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 materials being used, and periodic safety
inspection of all installation materials and the unit. If you are not qualifi ed, 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.
The unit has to be installed out of the reach of people.
CAUTION: Units in overhead installations may cause severe injuries when falling! If you have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do not install the unit.
Mount the unit with the bracket to your hanging system using an appropriate clamp or bolt.
For overhead use, always install a safety wire which can hold at least 12 times the weight of the unit. You must only use safety wires with link screw caps.
The maximum drop distance must never exceed 20cm.
A safety wire which has already held the strain of a fallen item or which is defective must not be used again.
Adjust the desired installation angle via the mounting bracket and tighten the screws.
