Operation (Non DMX)
• Add fluid carefully to the tank. Do not overfill the tank.
• The plug should be in a position that is accessible when using the machine.
• Plug the power cord into an earthed electrical outlet. Turn the power switch to
“ON” on the rear of the machine. Warm-up is complete when the green LED is
lit.
• To emit fog press the appropriate button on the remote control sender unit.
The red LED on the sender is lit during operation.
Operation (DMX 512)
• The Visage 275/1500 Fog Machine is controllable via suitable control desk.
Input and output connections are via 3pin XLR.
• DMX addressing of the unit is done via the DIP Switches on the rear of the
machine as shown in the diagram below:
ON
ON
OFF
OFF
DIP> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
DMX> 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128
NB: The table indicates a DMX address of ‘1’. By using the DIP switches in various
ON/OFF positions it is possible to address the unit with any number from 1 – 255.
CAUTION: Visibility during operation will be reduced.
Important: Always monitor tank fluid level while in use. Running a fog machine with
no fluid can permanently damage the unit.
This model can be operated at floor level or on any suitable level surface. It can also
be suspended using the attached hanging bracket.
Whichever installation method is used ensure that –
1. The fog can not shoot directly at any persons face.
2. The unit does not exceed a 15 degree angle of inclination.
3. When suspending via the hanging bracket the unit must be attached securely to
a suitable mounting point and a suitable safety bond is used.

If you experience low output, pump noise or no output at all, unplug the unit
immediately. Check the fluid level, the external fuse, remote control connection,
power connection, DMX connection (if used) and fluid hose connection. If all checks
appear to be ok, plug the unit in and test again. If the unit fails to work, unplug it and
contact the supplier immediately.
Performance Note
• All fog machines develop condensation around the nozzle. Because this may
result in some moisture accumulation on the surface below the output nozzle,
consider this when locating the unit.
• All fog machines may emit small amounts of fog occasionally during operation
and for a minute or so after being turned off.
• All fog machines have a recycling period after long bursts when the machine will
shut itself down for a short period in order to heat up again. During this time no
fog can be produced.
Maintenance
• Do not allow the fog fluid to become contaminated. Always replace the caps on
the fluid container and the fog machine fluid tank immediately after filling.
• Clean the casing with a soft dry cloth only.
Supplier Maintenance only: After every 40 hours of operation it is recommended to
run a cleaning solution composed of 80% distilled water and 20% vinegar through the
system to remove any accumulation of particulate matter in the heating element and
pipes. Disassemble the spray mouth and use vinegar to clean it when cold.
All fog machines are prone to clogging due to the thick consistency of fog fluid and the
high temperature at which it vaporises. However, a properly maintained machine
should provide years of reliable use.
Storage
Empty fluid container and store dry.
