OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. POWER HOOK-UP
Plug one end of the power cord into the dedicated socket located on the rear of the machine
and the other end into a socket rated at the proper voltage and amperage. The machine
requires a dedicated power circuit. Turn on the main power switch (I/O) located at the rear of
the machine.
2. REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control fits into a cavity on the rear of the machine. The Model 1700 ships with
the remote control already screwed in place and can be removed. If it is not already plugged
in, plug the remote control into the socket in the cavity on the back of the machine. Push the
grey button marked POWER ON. This will enable the electronics and the unit will start to
heat up. The red LED on the Remote Control should light up indicating that the electronics
are enabled. The red LED on the top of the machine should light as well indicating that the
machine is heating up.
Note: The Rosco Model 1700 Fog Machine will operate either from the Remote Control,
from a lighting control console using the optional DMX Remote Control (see below) or as a
unit in a daisy chain (see below).
3. WARM UP
Let the machine warm up for about eight minutes until the green LED on the top of the
machine turns on. The machine is now ready to use, as long as the green LED remains on and
the fluid reservoir contains fluid.
4. FLUID DELIVERY
Place either the 2.5-liter or the 4-liter size bottles of any Rosco fluid in the cavity located at
the rear of the machine. Place the end of the tube coming out of the top of the machine into
the bottle. A cap is provided that fits on the bottle.
NOTE: The machine only works with uncontaminated Rosco fog fluids. Other
manufacturers’ fluids may cause spitting and serious clogging problems and could result in
the production of an unhealthful aerosol. The use of other fluids voids the warranty of the
Rosco Model 1700 Fog Machine.
5. PRODUCING FOG
To produce fog, push the red FOG button located on the remote control. Push the switch
again to stop producing fog. The volume of the fog can be varied by turning the knob marked
FOG LEVEL. Note: At higher outputs the machine will give a large burst and then ramp back
the volume. This is to allow the machine to run continuously and is normal.
CAUTION: If the fluid bottle is empty, DO NOT run the pump. Running the machine
without fog fluid can seriously damage the pump.
