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.
