Familiarise yourself with the functions of the device before actually using it. Do not allow operation by
unqualified people. Any damage that may occur will most probably be due to unprofessional use of the
device.
Use the original packaging if the device is to be transported.
All modifications of the device are forbidden for safety reasons.
Only use the device for its intended purpose. Other uses may lead to short circuits, burns,
electroshocks etc. Using the device in an unauthorised way will void the warranty.
4. Description
Refer to the illustrations on page 2.
1 power ON/OFF switch 5 hot nozzle
2 fuse 6 adjustable handle
3 indicator light 7 feeder tube
4 smoke generation switch 8 liquid tank with cap
5. Installation
a) Smoke Liquid
Unplug the device before filling the tank.
Please use non-inflammable water-based smoke fluid without oil or grease, such as VDLSL1 (1 litre),
VDLSL5 (5 litres), or VDLSL5H (5 litres high density smoke liquid).
Non-recommended smoke liquid may damage the machine and void the warranty.
1. Unplug the device from the mains.
2. Unscrew the cap from the tank.
3. Carefully pour smoke liquid into the tank (do not overfill it!!).
4. Screw the cap closed.
Remark: Do not operate the device when the tank is open.
b) Fuse
Only fit or replace a fuse when the device is unplugged from the mains.
Replace a blown fuse with a fuse of the same type and rating (see 8. Technical Specifications”):
1. Unplug the device from the mains.
2. Unscrew the fuse holder at the back with an appropriate screwdriver.
3. Remove the old fuse and install a new one.
4. Replace the fuse holder and fasten it with the screwdriver.
c) Mounting the Device
Have the device installed by a qualified person, respecting EN 60598-2-17 and all other applicable
norms.
The construction to which the device is attached should be able to support 10 times the weight of the
device for one hour without deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary attachment e.g. a safety cable (e.g.
VDLSC7 or VDLSC8).
Never stand directly below the device when it is being mounted, removed or serviced. Have a qualified
technician check the device once a year and once before you bring it into service.
Install the device in a location with few passers-by that is inaccessible to unauthorised persons.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating workload limits, determining the
installation material to be used… Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not
attempt to install the device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result
in injuries.
Make sure there is no flammable material within a 50cm radius of the device.
Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.
Connect the device to the mains with the power plug. Don’t connect it to a dimming pack.
The installation has to be approved by an expert before the device is taken into service.
6. Use
Connect the device to the mains and flick the power switch at the back of the device to ON. After the
warm-up time (approx. 5-8 minutes) the device is ready for use. The green indicator light is now lit:
Activate/deactivate the smoke output with the push button.
VDL500SM Rev. 01

5
It may happen that the standby lamp on the remote control is off and the smoke emission stops, even
while you are holding the button. In this case the device is warming up again and will be ready to
resume operation in a few minutes' time. This process guarantees an appropriate vaporisation
temperature and the best smoke emission possible.
7. Cleaning and Maintenance
1. All screws should be tightened and free of corrosion.
2. Mechanically moving parts must not show any signs of wear and tear.
3. The electric power supply cables must not show any damage. Have a qualified technician maintain the
device.
4. Disconnect the device from the mains prior to maintenance activities.
5. Wipe the device regularly with a moist, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents.
6. There are no user-serviceable parts, apart from the fuse (see “5. Installation”).
7. Contact your dealer for spare parts if necessary.
8. Clean the heating element after every 30 hours of use with a special cleaning liquid available from
your dealer. Fill the tank with the cleaning liquid and let the machine run for a while. When the device
is cleaned, remove the remaining cleaning liquid and rinse the tank thoroughly with distilled water.
Never use regular water for cleaning or rinsing!

• All consumer products are subject to a 24-month warranty on
production flaws and defective material as from the original date of
purchase.
• Velleman
®
can decide to replace an article with an equivalent
article, or to refund the retail value totally or partially when the
complaint is valid and a free repair or replacement of the article is

You will be delivered a replacing article or a refund at the value of
100% of the purchase price in case of a flaw occurred in the first
year after the date of purchase and delivery, or a replacing article at

when the article is used professionally);
- damage resulting from an inappropriate packing and shipping of

by a third party without written permission by Velleman
®
.

• Hint: In order to save on cost and time, please reread the manual
and check if the flaw is caused by obvious causes prior to presenting
the article for repair. Note that returning a non-defective article can
also involve handling costs.
• Repairs occurring after warranty expiration are subject to shipping
costs.
• The above conditions are without prejudice to all commercial
warranties.
The above enumeration is subject to modification according to the

service- en kwaliteitsgarantie
Velleman
®
heeft ruim 35 jaar ervaring in de elektronicawereld en
verdeelt in meer dan 85 landen.
Al onze producten beantwoorden aan strikte kwaliteitseisen en aan
de wettelijke bepalingen geldig in de EU. Om de kwaliteit te
waarborgen, ondergaan onze producten op regelmatige tijdstippen
een extra kwaliteitscontrole, zowel door onze eigen kwaliteitsafdeling
als door externe gespecialiseerde organisaties. Mocht er ondanks
deze voorzorgen toch een probleem optreden, dan kunt u steeds een
beroep doen op onze waarborg (zie waarborgvoorwaarden).
Algemene waarborgvoorwaarden consumentengoederen
(voor Europese Unie):
• Op alle consumentengoederen geldt een garantieperiode van 24
maanden op productie- en materiaalfouten en dit vanaf de
oorspronkelijke aankoopdatum.
• Indien de klacht gegrond is en een gratis reparatie of vervanging
van een artikel onmogelijk is of indien de kosten hiervoor buiten
verhouding zijn, kan Velleman
®
beslissen het desbetreffende artikel
te vervangen door een gelijkwaardig artikel of de aankoopsom van
het artikel gedeeltelijk of volledig terug te betalen. In dat geval krijgt
u een vervangend product of terugbetaling ter waarde van 100% van
de aankoopsom bij ontdekking van een gebrek tot één jaar na
aankoop en levering, of een vervangend product tegen 50% van de
kostprijs of terugbetaling van 50% bij ontdekking na één jaar tot 2
jaar.
• Valt niet onder waarborg:
- alle rechtstreekse of onrechtstreekse schade na de levering
veroorzaakt aan het toestel (bv. door oxidatie, schokken, val, stof,
vuil, vocht...), en door het toestel, alsook zijn inhoud (bv. verlies van
data), vergoeding voor eventuele winstderving.
- verbruiksgoederen, onderdelen of hulpstukken die regelmatig
dienen te worden vervangen, zoals bv. batterijen, lampen, rubberen
onderdelen, aandrijfriemen... (onbeperkte lijst).
- defecten ten gevolge van brand, waterschade, bliksem, ongevallen,
natuurrampen, enz.
- defecten veroorzaakt door opzet, nalatigheid of door een
onoordeelkundige behandeling, slecht onderhoud of abnormaal
gebruik of gebruik van het toestel strijdig met de voorschriften van
de fabrikant.
- schade ten gevolge van een commercieel, professioneel of collectief
gebruik van het apparaat (bij professioneel gebruik wordt de
garantieperiode herleid tot 6 maand).
- schade veroorzaakt door onvoldoende bescherming bij transport
van het apparaat.
- alle schade door wijzigingen, reparaties of modificaties uitgevoerd
door derden zonder toestemming van Velleman
®
.
• Toestellen dienen ter reparatie aangeboden te worden bij uw
Velleman
®
-verdeler. Het toestel dient vergezeld te zijn van het
oorspronkelijke aankoopbewijs. Zorg voor een degelijke verpakking
(bij voorkeur de originele verpakking) en voeg een duidelijke
foutomschrijving bij.
• Tip: alvorens het toestel voor reparatie aan te bieden, kijk nog
eens na of er geen voor de hand liggende reden is waarom het
toestel niet naar behoren werkt (zie handleiding). Op deze wijze kunt
u kosten en tijd besparen. Denk eraan dat er ook voor niet-defecte
toestellen een kost voor controle aangerekend kan worden.
• Bij reparaties buiten de waarborgperiode zullen transportkosten
aangerekend worden.
• Elke commerciële garantie laat deze rechten onverminderd.
Bovenstaande opsomming kan eventueel aangepast worden
naargelang de aard van het product (zie handleiding van het
betreffende product).
