STAGE-HAZER USER GUIDE
Introduction
The is a brand new machine from JEM which has been
designed to produce a perfect translucent environment for today’s intelligent
lighting effects.
Furthermore, this unique design is guaranteed to give the user maximum
reliability thanks to features such as the “Low fluid cut off system”,which
protects the pump in the event of running the machine dry.
Creating the perfect ambient haze relies heavily on the correct particle size
and dispersion. The STAGE-HAZER produces this by vapourising the special
working fluid at very precise temperature in a high mass heater block which
contains a cuperous helicoil of 3 metres length.
The product of this process is injected into the uniquely designed JEM
“Dispersal Chamber” where it is mixed with a turbulent airflow and projected
from the machine as an optically translucent haze at 1200 ft / minute (exit
velocity).
JEM has also used the “DTP” safety device, as used on the ZR12, ZR22 and
Techno-Fog to ensure the best possible overheat protection.

Safety
Always use a JEM approved fluid, other fluids could be dangerous and could
cause damage to the machine.
Always check the voltage is correct for use with the machine, the voltage
setting is printed on the serial label.
Always read the user guide before operating the machine, smoke machines
need to be operated carefully to avoid risk.
Do not remove the cover or attempt to repair a faulty machine, an authorized
JEM dealer should be contacted in the event of a faulty machine.
Always use smoke machines in well ventilated areas, over use could affect
sufferers of asthma or other chest conditions.
Do not use the machine if there is a faulty mains lead or plug this could be
dangerous.
Do not spill fluid over the machine, if fluid is spilt clean with clean water and
contact an approved JEM dealer for advice.

Using DMX 512
DMX 512 is an industry standard and the is fitted with an
interface as standard. This gives the user the option of linking the smoke machines into
the lighting chain and controlling them from a single source. The STAGE-HAZER uses
a single channel to fire and control the output level, the interface can be addressed
from channel 1 up to channel 512. The address is set using the 10 way dip switch at the
rear of the machine. To address the channel, convert the channel number to binary and
set this number on the switches (on is down). There are some samples of different
channel settings below.
The is fitted with two XLR sockets for DMX, one is for DMX IN &
one is for DMX OUT; this enables the to be used in a chain. When
there is valid DMX, i.e. the XLR is connected and the desk is powered, the small green
LED will light indicating there is DMX connected to the machine. However, if there is
no address set, the LED will not light and DMX will be disabled. If an address is set
and DMX is present the machine will automatically start to heat up and after approxi-
mately 8 minutes you will be able to operate the machine using DMX. Increasing the
DMX level will increase the smoke output level.

Getting Started
Once you have selected the best position for the STAGE-HAZER you can
begin to use the machine. First check the power supply you have is correct
for the machine .If it is, you can connect to the power supply and switch the
mains switch on at the rear of the machine; the machine will start to heat up
and the fan will run. It will take approximately 8 minutes for the machine to
reach working temperature. While it heats up you should check the level in
the fluid container; the container can hold up to 9.5 litres of fluid. The
machine may not heat if there is inadequate fluid in the container (the red
‘fluid out’ LED must not be on).
When you have finished using the machine you should turn the mains switch
off. If any problems occur when operating the STAGE-HAZER please refer to
the trouble shooting guide.
When the machine has reached working temperature the green “ready” LED
will light on the top of the machine and the machine can now be operated.
Press the prime button until haze appears from the output; the pump is now
primed. This will only have to be done if the fluid lines have become empty.
The output can now be set to the desired level by turning the “output” knob.

Setting the level control to minimum will switch off the output
POWER LED: This indicates that the machine is powered and that the
remote is connected.
When starting the machine for the first time,
use the prime button as described on page 5 para 2. During normal opera-
tion, the output control should be set between 4 and 10.
