SETUP

1. Unpack the FH-700 unit.
2. Unscrew the top cap of the tank and remove to fill with the recommended haze fluid.
3. Replace the bottle and screw the cap securely ensuring the pipe is fed down to the bottom of the bottle so a consistent flow of fluid is supplied to the machine.
4. Connect the remote control.
5. Connect the IEC mains plug and power up.
6. Heat-up time is usually between 5-6 minutes. Please ensure no button is pressed during the heat-up time. When the machine is ready the LED light on the remote control will illuminate.
7. Turn the output to the max and press the green button on the remote control for 5 seconds so the fluid has a chance to flow through the heater block making it ready to use.
8. After this adjust the fan speed on the unit and the output on the remote control to find the level you desire. It is recommended to produce haze/fog with small pauses in between so that the temperature is maintained and the thermostat doesn’t switch off.

QUICK TROUBLESHOOTING

If the unit is not functioning properly

• Check if main power is on.
• Check the fuse hasn’t blown.
• Check the unit isn’t in DMX mode.
• Check there is fluid in the tank and the pipe is pushed down to the bottom of the bottle

If there is blockage use distilled water or haze machine cleaning fluid

REPLACING FUSE

Disconnect from the main power supply first. Then remove the fuse holder above the IEC Socket to reveal the fuse. Replace the correct fuse rating as stated on the lighting or user guide. Then, lock the fuse holder cover back into place.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, the item should be cleaned frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As a general rule, fixtures should be cleaned after use to avoid dust build-up and blockages, which can result in poor performances, overheating, and breakages. Be sure to power off the fixture before conducting maintenance.
Unplug the fixture from power. Use a vacuum or air compressor and a soft brush to remove dust collected on external vents and internal components. Clean the external case when the fixture is cold with a dry cloth or tissue and drag dirt and grime to the outside case.
