The volume of fog can be regulated by adjusting
the Flow Control Valve. (See Fig. 2)
Particle size is smaller/drier at lower outputs,
so it is wise to operate the unit at a lower output
for longer periods of time rather than high
outputs for short periods of time.
At the base of the plumbing is an in-line strainer
with a removable cap. Occasionally, check inside
and ush any sediment from the screen.
The Hose Connection is used to supply fresh
water to the unit and is controlled by an internal
oat valve assembly. There is also a secondary
back up oat valve assembly to ensure tank's
water level.

RECEPTACLE OR POWER SUPPLY
Fig. 3

1. Fan Does Not Operate
A.) Check voltage requirements on unit and electrical supply. Check for live receptacle, plug,
and power line.
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 #52) and make necessary
adjustments. Retighten bolts.
3. Unusual Noise
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.
6. 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.
troubleShootinG
BEFORE INSPECTION AND /OR SERVICE,
DISCONNECT AND LOCK OUT POWER SOURCE.
WARNING

8
Contact Your Sales Representative for Further Assistance.
7. Poor Quality Fog
A.) The liquid feed tube (Part #575) may not be properly positioned. The feed tube is located
behind the blade assembly and should be inserted approximately 1/4" into the slot
between the motor shaft and the stainless steel face plate. Centered in the slot area and
aimed slightly downward, free from any rotational contact.
B.) Liquid not traveling through the fan blades. This can be diagnosed by viewing the back
of a blade assembly during operation (using a bright ashlight). If system is clogged,
liquid can be seen spinning out of the slot area between the motor shaft and stainless
steel face plate (Part #573). If conrmed, replace fan blade assembly (Part #571-assy).
Cleaning the internal passageways of a blade assembly is feasible with the aid of some
speciality tools.
8. 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.
9. 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.
10. 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.
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.

1. Clean Strainers
The RSM is equipped with 2 strainers that should be cleaned periodically - 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. Explosion-Proof Motor
The main motor is a permanently sealed and lubricated motor. Any disassembly for service or
repair will void warranty and could eliminate the explosion-proof properties of the motor. If a
motor should fail, a replacement motor will be required.
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.
