the reservoir full. Plug the Volcano™ into a standard 120V electrical outlet. The unit will draw up to 6A of power. Connect the remote control into the rear of the machine. Turn the power switch to the “ON” position. After turning the unit on, the red L.E.D. on the remote will glow indicating that the unit is receiving power. After the machine initial warm up period, of approximately four (4) minutes, the green L.E.D. on the remote will glow indicating that the machine is now ready for use. The first time the machine is used it will take 5-30 seconds to prime (fill the pump with fluid). The pump may also need to be primed if the machine has not been used or has been stored for an extended period of time. If fog does not emit after 30 seconds, check the fluid in the tank , also check the hose to making sure there is fluid going through the hose.

Manual Operation:

For manual operation, push the green button on the remote control. Holding the green button down will give you 100% output for as long as you hold the button down. For advanced timer control oper- ation, please see the next section: Timer Operation.

Timer Operation:

The timer remote allows automatic control of fog output. To begin timer operation, press the yellow button on the remote, this should make the yellow L.E.D. glow. Next, adjust the “Interval” and “Volume” knobs to your desired settings. The interval time is the amount of time it will take for the fogger to trigger output between the output blast. The intervals can range from 0 seconds to 5 min- utes and is adjusted by turning the interval knob in a clockwise direction. Setting the interval to 0 will shut off the timer function and only allow manual output operation. Setting the interval to a full clockwise position will trigger output approximately every 5 minutes. The volume adjustment allows you to increase or decrease the amount of fog discharged with every blast. The volume can range from 0% (full counter-clockwise position) to 100% (full clockwise position). 0% will give you no out- put and 100% will give you the maximum possible output (approximately 2,500 cu.ft. per a minute).

You may also set the Volcano™ for continuous fog output. Continuous fog output is a new innovation to world of fog machines and will give you a consistent, even stream of fog throughout it’s cycle. For continuous fog output press the red button on the remote control. After pressing the red button fog should begin to emit from the machine, at this time adjust the “VOLUME” until you reach your desired fog output level.

Electronic Thermo Sensing / E.T.S.:

This feature allows you to have fog output available at almost any time. A small on board micro processor constantly monitors the operating temperature of the Volcano™ machine. When the Volcano™ machine drops one (1) degree in temperature, the E.T.S. automatically senses this change and turns the heater on to raise the temperature to that one degree lost. This enables the end user to have fog output at anytime. The only time fog will not be available, is at the end of the machines duty cycle (The fog output was maxed out and the heater has to reheat completely). The reheat process can take from one (1) to two (2) minutes.
