1. During use this machine generates condensation. After use the LSX should be drained via

the drain valve.

CAUTION: This may cause the floor to become very slippery. This may also inhibit the

performance of the LSX unit.

2. This unit requires a 15 amp circuit to run properly. The use of any extension cords or shared

circuit is strongly not recommended.

3. It is essential that Le Maitre’s Genuine LSX Molecular Fluid is used in the Fog Machine to

achieve optimum effect.

4. The LSX unit is controlled by a user-friendly panel. When the system switch is in the ‘On’

position and illuminated, power is established to the LSX unit. A ‘green led’ is provided to

indicate the compressor is operating.

5. An Automatic Reset Low Pressure Switch is provided as protection against compressor

damage. If the Low Pressure Switch has been activated the ‘Red’ LED will illuminate (the ‘Green’

LED will not be illuminated).

6. The Variable Fan Control regulates Fog Density Output. Some experimenting will produce

various effects. An OFF position is provided on this control. It is not recommended that this

control be left in the off position as this will eventually result in activation of the Low Pressure

Switch and cause a freeze up condition.

Operating Procedure

Control Panel Operations

1. Fan Knob: this controls the speed of the lower

fan. Turning clockwise reduces the speed. Off is at

the counter clockwise end.

Note: It is not recommended to leave the control left

in the ‘Off’ position or in a very low setting, the low

pressure switch may activate turning off the compres-

sor.

2. Low Pressure Light: when lit, indicates that

Low Pressure Protection has been activated. The Low

Pressure Switch will automatically reset but may take

2 - 3 cycles to start, unless a leak has occured in the

system.

3. Compressor Light: compressor is operating

normal when lit.

4. Power Switch: power is on when lit.

Note: A cooler ambient temperature may result in activation of Low Pressure Switch within a

short period of time after initial start up. To remedy this problem the unit can be stored in a

warm location, a “load” can be put on the cooling chamber by introducing warm fog into the

unit just after start up, or by simply covering the top of the unit to stop air flow.

Pro Beam (Long Lasting) Fog Fluid: We have had many compliments on our fog fluid but

many of our customers would like it to hang longer so we introduced the “Long Lasting

Fluid”. It is still odourless but a little less white than our “Director’s Choice”. It hangs in the

air 2 - 3 times longer than the “Director’s Choice”.

Quick Dissipating Fog Fluid: We have been mixing this for some time for our special effects

people working in the movies. We have decided that there are many other applications for

this fluid. When using this in the LSX or LSG, you will find it works very well if you are having

problems with the smoke rising too quickly. It has also been used for quick burst-of-steam

effects, nitrogen bursts, etc. It will dissipate at about twice the rate of the “Molecular Fluid”.

Extra Quick Dissipating Fog Fluid: It is very similar to the “Quick Dissipating” but dissipates

at about twice the rate of the “Quick Dissipating”.

Molecular Fog Fluid: The “Molecular Fluid” was originally designed for use in the LSG and

LSX, however, many other applications were found very quickly. It is clean, white, thick fog,

practically odourless and dissipates as it begins to warm.

Maxi Fog Fluid: Maxi Fog Fluid was developed for our high volume users requiring an

excellent balance of price and performance without compromise.

Directors’s Choice Fog Fluid: This fluid has been our long standing blend. It is a clean, white,

practically odourless fog. It is used for many applications where a cloud of fog is required

with a medium hang time.

Recommended Fluids

EZ Kleen Preventative Maintenance Fluid: EZ Kleen is used as a preventative maintenance

measure to ensure longer heat exchanger life. It is easy to use and should be used on a

regular basis to prevent blockage of your heat exchanger that frequently happens to fog and

haze machines.
