Respect all locally applicable laws, codes and regulations when installing, operating or servicing the smoke machine.
Protection from electric shock
Do not expose the smoke machine to rain or moisture.
Disconnect the smoke machine from AC power before carrying out any installation or maintenance work and when the smoke machine is not in use.
Ensure that the smoke machine is electrically connected to ground (earth).
Use only a source of AC mains power that complies with local building and electrical codes and has both overload and ground-fault (earth-fault) 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.
Replace defective fuses with ones of the specified type and rating only.
Disconnect the smoke machine from power immediately if the power plug or any seal, cover, cable, or other component is damaged, defective, deformed, wet or showing signs of overheating. Do not reapply power until repairs have been completed.
Before using the smoke machine, check that all power distribution equipment and cables are in perfect condition and rated for the electrical requirements of all connected devices.
Protection from burns and fire
Do not operate the smoke machine if the ambient temperature (T
a
) exceeds 40° C (104° F).
The surface of the product casing can reach up to 50° C (122°F) during operation. Avoid contact by persons and materials. Allow the smoke machine to cool for at least 10 minutes before handling.

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
