Do not touch the smoke output nozzle during or after use – it becomes extremely hot, reaching a temperature of 250° C (482° F). The nozzle cools slowly and can cause burns for up to three hours after the machine has been shut down.
The smoke 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 1 meter (39 inches) away from the smoke output nozzle. Do not install the machine such that hot droplets can fall on people.
Smoke output contains glycol, a flammable alcohol that burns with an almost invisible blue flame. Do not point smoke output at sources of ignition such as open flames or pyrotechnic effects.
Keep flammable materials well away from the smoke machine.
Ensure that there is free and unobstructed airflow around the smoke machine. Provide a minimum clearance of 500 mm (20 in.) around the smoke machine. Keep combustible materials at least 1 m (40 in.) away from the machine.
Do not attempt to bypass thermostatic switches or fuses. Replace fuses only with ones of the type and rating specified in this manual for the machine.
Protection from injury
Ensure that any supporting structure and/or hardware used can hold at least 10 times the weight of all the devices they support.
If suspending from a rigging structure, fasten the smoke machine to a rigging clamp. Do not use safety cables as the primary means of support.
Do not install the smoke machine over areas where people are present.
This appliance 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 appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
If the smoke machine is installed in a location where it may cause injury or damage if it falls, install as directed in this manual a secondary attachment such as a safety cable that will
Page 7

Physical installation
Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before installing the smoke machine.
The smoke machine is designed for indoor use only and must be used in a dry location with adequate ventilation.
Martin™ can supply suitable safety cables and rigging clamps for use with the smoke machine (see ‘Accessories’ on page 19).
Do not suspend the machine immediately over areas with public access.
Ensure that there is at least 500 mm (20 in.) clearance all around the machine and at least 1 m (40 in.) clearance in front of the output nozzle. Keep combustible materials at least 1 m (40 in.) away from the machine.
The machine can be tilted up to 45 degrees up or down from horizontal if the tank is partially filled. Overfilling or steeper tilting may cause fluid leakage.
Mounting the smoke machine on a truss
The smoke machine can be clamped to a truss or similar rigging structure and tilted up to 45 degrees from horizontal. When installing the smoke machine with the mounting bracket hanging vertically down, you can use an open-type clamp such as a G-clamp. If installing with the mounting bracket in any other orientation, you must use a half-coupler clamp (see illustration on right) that completely encircles the truss chord.
To clamp the smoke machine to a truss:
1. Install the mounting bracket on the smoke machine and secure with both
tightening handles.
2. Check that the rigging structure can support at least 10 times the weight of all
smoke machines and other equipment to be installed on it.
3. Block access under the work area.
4. Bolt a rigging clamp securely to the mounting bracket. The bolt used must be
M12, grade 8.8 steel minimum. It must pass through both mounting bracket legs and be fastened with a self-locking nut.
5. Working from a stable platform, hang the smoke machine with its clamp on
the truss and fasten the clamp securely.
6. Secure the smoke machine with a safety cable as directed below.
Page 11
RUSH SM 650TM User Manual

Securing with a safety cable
Secure the smoke machine with a safety cable (or other secondary attachment) that is approved for the weight of the smoke machine so that the safety cable will hold the smoke machine if a primary attachment fails. Loop the safety cable through the eyebolt on top of the smoke machine (see illustration on page 9) and around a secure anchoring point. Do not loop the safety cable around the smoke machine’s mounting bracket only, as this will leave the smoke machine unsecured if it separates from the bracket.
AC power
Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before connecting the smoke machine to AC mains power.
For protection from electric shock, the smoke machine must be grounded (earthed). The power distribution circuit must be equipped with a fuse or circuit breaker and ground-fault (earth­fault) protection.
Socket outlets or external power switches used to supply the smoke machine with power must be located near the smoke machine and easily accessible so that the smoke machine can easily be disconnected from power.
The smoke machine can be hard-wired to a building electrical installation if you want to install it permanently, or a power plug (not supplied) that is suitable for the local power outlets can be installed on the power cable.
If you install a power plug on the power cable, install a grounding type (earthed) plug with integral cable grip that is rated minimum 250 V, 10 A. Follow the plug manufacturer’s instructions and connect the wires in the power cable as shown in this table:
Live or L Neutral or N
Earth, Ground or
US system
Black White Green
EU system
Brown Blue Yellow/green
Before connecting the smoke machine to power, verify that the AC supply is adequately dimensioned for the current draw of all connected devices and that the local AC voltage is appropriate for the range indicated on page 18 and on the machine’s rear panel. If your AC voltage is outside the specified range, do not use the smoke machine.

Remote control
The SM 650 smoke machine comes with 2 remote control options: a wired remote control and a 4-channel wireless remote control. There are two identical sockets on the rear panel so that both remote controls may be connected and used at the same time.
Wired remote control
The wired remote control has a 4.5 m (15 ft.) cable that plugs into either remote control socket on the rear panel. The status LED on the remote control is off while the machine is heating and lights green when the smoke machine is ready for use.
4-channel wireless remote control and receiver
The 4-channel wireless remote control transmitter (shown below to left) has a range of 30 meters (100 feet). It provides individual control of up to 4 smoke machines and simultaneous control of an unlimited number of machines in up to 4 groups.
The remote control receiver (shown above to right) connects to a remote control socket on the rear panel. It has green (ready) and red (heating) LEDs to show the machine’s status.
The DIP switch on the side of the receiver sets the remote control button that triggers the machine. Flip the switch that corresponds to the desired transmitter button to the ON position. Flip all other switches to OFF. The smoke machine responds to all buttons for which the DIP switch is in the ON position.

Operation
Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before operating the smoke machine. The smoke produced by the
machine is hot enough to cause burns or eye injury if the safety precautions are not followed.
Fill only with RUSH ELX
Smoke Fluid. Do not use water or any other fluid. Doing so may be hazardous and will probably damage the machine. Damage caused by use of other fluids is not covered by product warranties.
Filling the tank
To fill the fluid tank:
1. Verify that the smoke machine is turned off.
2. Remove the filler cap.
3. Use a funnel to fill the tank to the fill line with approved smoke fluid. Pour in less fluid if the machine is installed at an angle: to prevent leaks, fluid must not come above the filler opening.
4. Replace the filler cap and verify that the feed hose touches the bottom of the tank.
5. Wipe up any spills or drips.
Making smoke
1. Fill the fluid tank as described above.
2. Connect a remote control or wireless remote control receiver as described on the previous page.
3. Connect the smoke machine to AC power and switch it on. Allow the machine to heat up for several minutes. The machine is ready to use when the green LED lights up on the wired remote control or the wireless remote receiver.
4. Verify that it is safe to fire the machine. Press the button on the remote control until smoke is released. (Once the system has been primed, smoke will be released instantly.)
5. Monitor fluid level and refill as necessary (after turning off the machine). The “No Liquid” rear panel LED illuminates when fluid is exhausted and the pump is automatically disabled.
6. When finished, turn off the machine and allow it to cool before handling. The nozzle remains hot for three hours.

Do not try to repair the smoke machine yourself, as you may create a safety risk or cause damage that is not covered by the product warranty.
Cleaning
Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particle buildup degrades performance, causes overheating and will damage the smoke machine. Damage caused by inadequate cleaning or maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.
Inspect smoke machines within their first 100 hours of operation to see whether cleaning is necessary. Check again at frequent intervals. This procedure will allow you to assess cleaning requirements in your particular situation. If in doubt, consult your RUSH by Martin™ dealer about a suitable maintenance schedule.
Use gentle pressure only when cleaning, and work in a clean, well-lit area. Do not use any product that contains solvents or abrasives, as these can cause surface damage.
To clean the smoke machine, vacuum or gently blow away dust and loose particles from the outside of the smoke machine with low-pressure compressed air. Clean the surfaces by wiping gently with a soft, clean lint-free cloth moistened with a weak detergent solution. Check that the smoke machine is dry before reapplying power.
Replacing the primary fuse
If the smoke machine is completely dead, the smoke machine’s primary fuse may have blown and need to be replaced. This fuse is located inside the machine, mounted in a holder on the printed circuit board.
