Safety information

Read the safety precautions in this manual before installing, operating or servicing this product.

The following symbols are used to identify important safety information:

Caution! Safety hazard. Risk of severe injury or

death.

Caution! Burn

hazard. Hot

touch.

Danger!

Hazardous

voltage. Contact

will cause electric

shock.

Caution! Fire

hazard.

Warning! This product is not for household use. It presents risks of injury due to electric shock, burns, falls and respiratory problems!

Read this manual before operating the machine, follow the safety precautions listed below, and observe all warnings in this manual and printed on the machine. Use the machine only as described in this manual and in accordance with local laws and regulations.

If you have questions about how to operate the machine safely, or if you have followed the instructions in this manual and the machine is malfunctioning, please contact Martin Service and Support.

Preventing electric shocks

 Always ground (earth) the machine electrically.  Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building and

electrical codes, and that has both overload and ground-fault protection.

 Before connecting the machine to power, check that the voltage

indicated on the machine’s serial label matches your local AC power voltage. If your AC power voltage does not match, do not use the machine. Contact Martin Service and Support for assistance.

 Before using the machine, check that all power distribution equipment

and cables are in perfect condition and rated for the current requirements of all connected devices.

 If the machine or any cables connected to it are in any way damaged,

defective, wet, or show signs of overheating, stop using the machine and contact Martin Service and Support for assistance. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent.

 Disconnect the machine from AC power before servicing and when not in

use.

 This machine is not waterproof and should not be exposed to wet

outdoor conditions. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid. Do not expose to high-pressure water jets.

Safety information

 Do not spill fluid over or inside the machine. If fluid is spilled, disconnect

AC power and clean with a damp cloth. If fluid is spilled onto electronic parts, take the machine out of service and contact Martin Service and Support for advice.

 Do not remove the covers or attempt to repair a faulty machine. Refer

any service not described in this manual to Martin Service and Support.

 Do not operate the machine if any parts are damaged, defective or

missing.

 Moisture and electricity do not mix. Do not aim haze output at electrical

connections or devices.

Preventing burns and fire

 The haze produced by the machine is hot enough to cause burns when it

leaves the nozzle, and very hot droplets of fluid escape occasionally. Keep people and objects at least 600 mm (24 in.) away from the haze output nozzle.

 Do not touch the haze output nozzle during or after use – it becomes

extremely hot and remains hot for several hours after the machine has been shut down.

 Haze output contains glycol, a flammable alcohol that burns with an

almost invisible blue flame. Do not point haze output at sources of ignition such as open flames or pyrotechnic effects.

 Do not attempt to bypass thermostatic switches, fluid sensors or fuses.  Replace fuses only with ones of the type and rating specified in this

manual for the machine.

 Provide a minimum free space of 100 mm (4 in.) around the machine.  Provide a minimum free space of 500 mm (20 in.) around fans and air

vents and ensure free and unobstructed airflow to and around the machine.

 Keep the machine at least 600 mm (24 in.) away from combustible and

heat-sensitive materials.

 Do not operate the machine if the ambient temperature (Ta) is below 5°

C (41° F) or above 40° C (104° F).

 Do not operate the machine if the relative air humidity exceeds 80%.

Preventing injuries

 Ensure that the surface on which the machine is located or installed can

safely hold the weight of the machine.

 Do not install the machine over areas where people are present.  Do not operate the machine with missing or damaged covers or shields.  In the event of an operating problem, stop using the machine

immediately and disconnect it from power. Do not attempt to use a machine that is obviously damaged.

 Do not modify the machine in any way not described in this manual or

install other than genuine Martin parts.

 Refer any service operation not described in this manual to a qualified

technician.

 Haze output can cause condensation. Do not point the output at smooth

floors. Floors and surfaces may become slippery. Check these frequently and wipe dry as necessary to avoid any danger of slipping.

 Ensure at least 2 m (6.6 ft.) visibility in areas where haze is being

produced.

Safety information

 Haze fluid contains food-grade glycols in solution that may present

health risks. IF SWALLOWED: Do not induce vomiting. Drink 1-2 glasses of water

and seek medical attention. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN AND EYES: In case of accidental

contact: EYES: Hold eyes open and flush with water for ten minutes, seek medical attention if irritation persists. SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing and rinse skin for 20 minutes, seek medical attention if irritation persists.

Consult the fluids' SDS for more detailed safety information at

http://www.martin.com/safety-documents

 This machine is not intended for use by persons (including children) with

reduced physical sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the machine by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the machine.

Preventing breathing problems

 A haze machine can operate safely only with the haze fluid it is designed

for. Use the machine only with fluids specified under “Approved Haze Fluid Types” on page 19 or you may cause the release of toxic gases, presenting a severe health hazard. You will also probably damage the machine.

 Do not create dense haze in confined or poorly ventilated areas.  Do not expose people with health problems (including allergic and/or

respiratory conditions such as asthma) to haze output.

 Do not point haze output directly at a person’s face or at face height.

Quick Start

You are no doubt eager to switch on the machine and try it out by making a lot of haze. This section tells you how to do that. However, please also make the time to read the safety and servicing instructions in the remainder of this manual.

Setting up

Locate the machine in a suitably large area with nothing in front of the haze output.

Fill the fluid reservoir with Martin approved haze fluid (see page 19). The fluid compartment is opened by pulling outwards on the cover (pull using a finger in the round hole).

Connect the machine to a suitably rated power source. The power requirements are: EU Models – 920 W, 220-240 V US Models – 920 W, 100-130 V

Connect the remote control to the REMOTE IN connector on the rear panel. Turn on the power switch. The red Heat indicator on the remote and the rear of

the unit will light. After about 6-8 minutes the green Ready indicator on the remote and the rear of the unit will light. The machine is then ready to produce haze. To obtain maximum haze output, wait another couple of minutes for the Heat indicator to go out.

Making haze

Once the machine has heated up, press the FOG button on the remote to start the haze output. The green ON light will come on. Press the FOG button again to turn off the haze.

You can set the haze density by turning the knob. If the knob is turned fully counter-clockwise, no haze will be produced.
