UNIT PREPARATION
Visually check to make sure that the critically
important liquid feed tube (Part #6) has maintained
its center position, partially inserted into the blade
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.
WARNING

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 ORSM 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 ORSM 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.

Flow Rate
Valve
Flow Rate
Valve KEY
FLOW RATE (FACTORY PRE-SET)
The Flow Rate (at full open) is pre-set 5 GPH
This ow rate can easily be changed to achieve customer's desired
output. Output can accommodate the odor control product being
used and customer's need to add humidity. Common outputs are:
4 to 8 GPH ~ Odor Control plus Humication Treatment
1 to 2 GPH ~ Odor Control Treatment
ORSM-1000 min/max range is 1 to 14 GPH.
ORSM-1500 min/max range is 2 to 8 GPH.
Once a ow rate has been chosen and set, connect an
appropriately-sized metering pump to add odor control product.
The KEY is needed to make changes
You will need the KEY located on the side of the electrical control
box to make changes (see Fig. 5). Slide this key on top of the ow
valve's stem (see Fig. 6) to make your adjustment.
To calibrate a New Flow Rate
Fill the unit's tank with water only and disconnect the small 1/4"
black plastic tubing at the bottom of the fan housing (See Fig. 5).
Use a measuring cup and turn on only the feed pump for a 60 second
interval while catching the water from the feed tube. Multiply ounces of
water by 60 and then divide by 128. This will give you your GPH rate.
Example: 1 minute/ (4.2 ozs. x 60 ÷ 128 = 2 GPH)
Do not leave KEY on valve
Regular cleaning and/or maintenance inside the tank will likely
move the setting and cause problems to your pre-set ow rate.
AUTOMATIC PRIMING OF THE SYSTEM
OCCURS THROUGH THE FLOW RATE VALVE,
SO IT SHOULD NEVER BE ADJUSTED TO FULLY CLOSED.
NOTICE
INSTALLATION
A) Short Treatments
For evualation(s), simply ll
the tank with some pre-diluted
product and operate manually.
B) Long Treatments
For permanent installation,
connect the ORSM to a
metering pump, to a
concentrated supply of
product, and a fresh water
source.
SETUP
A timer can be used to control the
power to the Metering Pump and ORSM
simultaneously.
Water Connection
Metering
Pump
Odor Control
Concentrate
The metering pump connects directly
to the ORSM, usually dosing
concentrated product at about 1 GPH
or less into the feed water traveling to
the fogging head. For location of inlet
connection see Fig. 3.

TROUBLESHOOTING
BEFORE INSPECTION AND/OR SERVICE
DISCONNECT AND LOCK OUT POWER SOURCE.
WARNING
1. Poor/Inconsistent Fogging Output
A.) Inconsistent or spotty chemical coverage usually occurs because the fog volume output is
too high. Ideally, fog will disappear when fogging at rates near 3 GPH. To check for fog
volume output, refer to Maximum Pre-set Flow Rate (See Page 6).
B.) Ensure the SST liquid feed tube is properly inserted 1/4" into the center of the fan blade
assembly.
C.) 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 for each individual blade as well. Reassemble and reattach.
D.) It is possible for an air pocket to become caught within the plumbing. If you think this
is occurring, throttle the ow control valve to wide open a few times to expel any trapped
air. If the problem persists, check your pre-set ow rate valve (refer to page 6 Factory
Pre-set Flow Valve). The ORSM will automatically prime the feed pump, but if the pre-set
ow rate valve is in a fully closed position, the automatic priming will not occur, resulting
in trapped air and poor/inconsistent fogging output.
E.) Consistency of fogging output greatly depends on the consistency of the cleaning
procedures (See Page 10). Check strainer, plumbing, and inside of tank for dried
sediment or clogs.
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, detach the housing by removing the 6 small bolts (Part
#54). Next, loosen 4 bolts (Part #52) and make necessary adjustments. Retighten bolts
and reattach housing.
3. Fan and/or Pumps Do Not Operate
Check voltage requirements on unit and electrical supply. Have a certied electrician check
for live receptacle, plug, power line and toggle switch. If the fan works but the pump does
not, look for any loose connections inside the main motor's junction box. If there are no loose
connections, the pump is probably damaged and should be replaced.

TROUBLESHOOTING (CONT.)
BEFORE INSPECTION AND /OR SERVICE
DISCONNECT AND LOCK OUT POWER SOURCE.
WARNING
4. No Fog
A.) The self-priming system will usually take about 10 seconds before you see fog output.
Check to see if the ow control valve is open. The valve is open when the handle is down.
B.) Check the pre-set ow rate valve located inside the tank (refer to page 6 Factory Pre-set
Flow Valve). Having the pre-set ow rate valve in either a fully closed or fully open position
will result in no fog output. If the positioning is incorrect, refer to page 6 for instructions
on calibrating the pre-set ow rate valve.
C.) Check for sediment clogs. Flush the inline strainer and check for sediment build-up
around the base of the pump. Spray around the pump with a hose and drain the tank.
D.) The pump may not be operating. Check by removing the Inline strainer cap and turning
system On. If no uid ows from the strainer, the pump may need to be replaced.
5. Unusual Noise
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.
6. Fan Motor Becomes Excessively Hot
The main fan motor normally becomes very hot to the touch. However, it should not get
so hot that it begins to smell or smoke, nor should the power cord become hot. Discontinue
operation and consult an electrician to properly evaluate the problem.
7. 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.
8. Fan and/or Motor Vibration
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. Also check that the
motor mounting hardware is securely tightened.

MAINTENANCE
1. Clean Strainers
The ORSM is equipped with 2 accessible strainers that should be cleaned regularly - the drain
strainer (Part #39) in the tank and the inline strainer (Part #71) at the bottom of the ow control
valve. Check these strainers regularly 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. Main Motor
The main motor is a permanently lubricated motor, but occasionally applying some spray oil to
external rusty areas of the motor's body can help extend the motor's life.
4. Inspect Blade Assembly
Clean the exterior of the blades about once a year or whenever a lm of calcium or
mineral deposits is visible. 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.
