of trouble.
Fogging Precautions
DANGER
A motionless atomizer may
appear safe, but its blade
could suddenly begin high-
speed rotation without
warning as a result of
control programming.
When the HRSM is automated by controls,
warning signs should be posted near the high-
speed equipment.
Disconnect and lock out power source to inspect
or service the unit.
GENERAL SAFETY

components to atomize liquids, the following safety
precautions must be observed at all times:
1. Read all manuals included
with this product. Be familiar
with the product and controls.
2. The HRSM is intended to be
used on level ground. Test for stability before
operation.
3. Follow United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) guidelines and regulations when
fogging pesticide or chemical solutions.
4. Follow all local electrical and safety codes
as well as the United States National
Electrical Codes (NEC) and Occupational Safety
and Health Act (OSHA).
5. Only persons well acquainted with these
rules of safe operation should be allowed to
use the atomizer.
6. Keep visitors away and NEVER allow children in
the work area.
7. Use of an extension cord for the HRSM is
not recommended. If necessary, refer to
the A.W.G chart in the following section or
consult a certied electrician.

assembly. Re-position if necessary. (See Fig. 1)
Visually check to make sure the blades can rotate
freely without touching any venturi pins. There should
be approximately 1/4" space between the pins and
the blades. (See Fig. 2) Do Not operate if blades may
hit pins. Refer to troubleshooting for adjustments.
ENSURE THE BLADE ASSEMBLY
IS CENTERED INSIDE THE
PINNED VENTURI. ADJUST MOTOR AND BLADE AS
NECESSARY.

CONTROLS/ FEATURES
The volume of fog can be regulated by adjusting the
Flow Control Valve. (See Fig. 3)
Particle size is smaller at lower outputs, so it is
better to operate the unit at a lower output for longer
periods of time.
At the base of the plumbing is an in-line strainer with
a removable cap. Periodically check inside and ush
any sediment from the screen. (See Fig. 3)
The HRSM is equipped with a four position pivoting
fogging head with 15º intervals up to 45º.
Propelling the fog upward allows more time for the
particles to evaporate, keeping oor areas drier.
When making an adjustment, balance the weight of
the fogging head off of the pin for easy removal.

TESTING AND EVALUATION
► Turn on the unit and listen for any possible abnormalities, such as the blades rubbing against the
venturi. Make re-adjustments if necessary.
► Evaluate fog quality adjusting the output by using the ow control valve. (See Fig. 3). After starting, it
generally takes several seconds for the liquid to reach the atomizing fan.
BEFORE TESTING FAN MAKE SURE ALL OBJECTS ARE OUT OF THE
ROTATION PATH OF THE FAN BLADES.HIGH-SPEED WARNING. KEEP HANDS
CLEAR! MAKE SURE GUARDS ARE INSTALLED OR UNIT IS OUT OF REACH.
DANGER
CAREFULLY LISTEN FOR UNUSUAL NOISE OR VIBRATION.
CAUTION
► For rst-time evaluation, ll tank (with water only) about one quarter full.
► Connect to power supply.
► BUMP START HRSM and check for proper fan blade rotation (clockwise if looking at front of unit).
If incorrect, nd rotation connection changes on the motor's electrical schematic.

1. Fan Does Not Operate
A.) Check voltage requirements on unit and electrical supply. Check for live receptacle, plug,
power line and toggle switch.
B.) Look for any loose connections inside the main motor's junction box.
2. Blades Rub Against Venturi
A.) To make a horizontal adjustment, loosen the 4 bolts (Part #56) at the base of the main
fan motor and shift motor side to side until centered. Retighten bolts.
B.) To make a vertical adjustment, slightly loosen 4 bolts (Part #117) and make necessary
adjustments. Retighten bolts.
3. Unusual Noise
A.) It is normal to hear a slight rattling noise at start-up and shut-down. This is caused by the
tip of the liquid feed tube entering the center of the fan blade assembly reservoir.
B.) Squealing at start-up or during operation may be caused by the motor shaft's bearing
seal. Spray with lubricant at the front of the motor where the shaft exits the motor's
frame.
4. No Fog
A.) Check to see if ow control valve is open. The valve is open when the handle is down
and closed when up. If the valve is open and there is still no fog, the pump may need
to be primed. In rare cases the pump may retain an air bubble. To prime the pump,
remove the inline strainer cap (Part #71) and turn the system ON for a few seconds.
Replace cap and try operating unit again.
B.) If pump is receiving electricity but there is no fog, check for sediment in the pump's intake
screen. Spray around the pump with a garden hose or remove the pump and thoroughly
clean the intake screen. Clean and ush out the tank area by removing the drainage plug
located on the bottom rear of RSM.
C.) If no liquid enters the tank when using the automatic ll, check oat valve assembly for
debris. When the oat arm is up, water should shut off; when it is down, water should
freely enter RSM tank.
5. Liquid Spilling From Overow Port
A.) Check the oat valve assembly. If the oat (Part #99) is lling with water, it should be
replaced. Also check to see if debris is not allowing the valve (Part #97) to seal properly.
Clean as needed.
B.) Reduce the in-line water pressure.
TROUBLESHOOTING
BEFORE INSPECTION AND /OR SERVICE
DISCONNECT AND LOCK OUT POWER SOURCE.
WARNING

8
Contact Your Sales Representative for Further Assistance.
6. Poor Quality Fog
A.) The liquid feed tube (Part #6) may not be inserted properly into the reservoir. The feed
tube must be inserted approximately 1/4" into the center bearing, but it should not touch
the back of the reservoir.
B.) Reservoir may be clogged. Fluid entering a clogged reservoir will spill out of the center
bearing instead of entering the passageways of the fan blades. To clean, remove the
blade assembly from the motor shaft and totally disassemble. Next, ush the reservoir
under a sink, making sure the passageways are cleared. Check and clear the
passageways of each individual blade as well. Reassemble and reattach.
7. Fan Motor Becomes Excessively Hot
The main fan motor normally becomes very hot to the touch. However, if it gets so hot that it
begins to smell or smoke or the power cord becomes hot, discontinue operation and consult
an electrician to properly evaluate the problem.
8. Electrical Breaker Tripping
If the electrical breaker trips off, there is an overload in the system and there may be a serious
motor problem. Turn off all other devices connected to the same circuit. If the breaker continues
to trip, the motor is probably in need of repair. Consult an electrician for evaluation.
9. Fan and/or Motor Vibration
A.) If the fan unit begins vibrating severely, rst be sure the blade assembly is fully engaged
and securely tightened on the motor shaft. Next, inspect the blade assembly, particularly
the ends of the blades. Look for wear or cracks - replace as necessary. Look for deposits
of calcium or minerals - clean and remove mineral deposits and/or calcium.
B.) If the vibration seems to be coming from the motor, rst check that the motor mounting
hardware is securely tightened. If hardware is secure, remove the blade assembly and
operate the motor without the blade. If vibration continues, the motor has a serious
mechanical problem and probably needs to be replaced.
10. Liquid Spilling From Fan Housing
If liquid builds up inside the housing, the drain tube is probably clogged. Clean debris
from the drain strainer and drain tube.
11. Plumbing Leaks
Un-thread ttings and clean both the male and female threads. Apply new thread tape
(approximately 2-3 wraps) and reconnect. If a tube tting is leaking, tighten the cap - no
more than 1 turn past nger tightened. If the leak persists, replace the tube tting insert.

MAINTENANCE
1. Clean Strainers
The RSM is equipped with 3 strainers that should be cleaned periodically - the Drain
Strainer (Part #39) in the Tank, the Inline Strainer (Part #71) at the bottom of the
Flow Control Valve and the Pump Screen on the Pump. Check strainers and remove
any trapped debris.
2. Flush Out Tank
The tank should be rinsed regularly, especially if using chemicals. Remove drain plug
(Part #351) and, using a garden hose, thoroughly ush tank and pump of any sediment.
3. Lubricate Main Motor
The main motor is a permanently lubricated motor, but it is benecial to apply spray oil
around the shaft where it exits the motor body. Lubricate motor once a season or
whenever squealing occurs.
4. Inspect Blade Assembly
Clean the blade assembly about once a year, especially if a lm of calcium or mineral
deposits is visible on the exterior of the blades. Remove any build-up from the blades
and any debris from blade passageways. While cleaning, inspect for irregularities or
hairline cracks and replace as necessary.
5. Storage
Protect your mobile Aquafog from winter damage. Expansion due to freezing can burst
the ttings or the internal feed pump. If storing unit in below freezing temperatures,
be sure all uid is drained from the tank area. Damage due to freezing is not covered
under warranty.
DISCONNECT AND LOCK OUT POWER SOURCE
