The following symbols are used to identify important safety information:
Caution! Safety

personal injury.
Caution! Burn

Danger!
Hazardous
voltage. Contact
will cause electric

Caution! Fire

Warning! This product is not for household use. It presents risks of injury due
to electric shock, burns, falls and respiratory problems!
Read this manual before operating the machine, follow the safety precautions
listed below, and observe all warnings in this manual and printed on the
machine. Use the system only as described in this manual and in accordance
with local laws and regulations.
If you have questions about how to operate the machine safely, or if you have
followed the instructions in this manual and the machine is malfunctioning,
please contact Martin Service.
Preventing electric shocks
•Always ground (earth) the machine electrically.
•Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building and
electrical codes, and that has both overload and ground-fault protection.
•Before connecting the haze machine to power, check that the voltage
indicated on the machine’s serial label matches your local AC power
voltage. If your AC power voltage does not match, do not use the
machine. Contact Martin Service for assistance.
•Before using the machine, check that all power distribution equipment
and cables are in perfect condition and rated for the current
requirements of all connected devices.
•If the machine or any cables connected to it are in any way damaged,
defective, wet, or show signs of overheating, stop using the machine and
contact Martin Service for assistance. If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the
manufacturer or its service agent.
•Disconnect the machine from AC power before servicing and when not
in use.
•This system is not waterproof and should not be exposed to wet outdoor
conditions. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid. Do not expose to
high-pressure water jets.
•Do not spill fluid over or inside the machine. If fluid is spilled, disconnect
AC power and clean with a damp cloth. If fluid is spilled onto electronic
parts, take the system out of service and contact Martin for advice.

6 Safety information
•Do not remove the covers or attempt to repair a faulty machine. Refer any
service not described in this manual to Martin.
•Do not operate the machine if any parts are damaged, defective or
missing.
•Moisture and electricity do not mix. Do not aim haze output at electrical
connections or devices.
Preventing burns and fire
•The haze produced by the machine is hot enough to cause burns when it
leaves the nozzle, and very hot droplets of fluid escape occasionally.
Keep people and objects at least 60cm (24 inches) away from the haze
output nozzle.
•Do not touch the haze output nozzle during or after use – it becomes
extremely hot and remains hot for several hours after the machine has
been shut down.
•Haze output contains glycol, a flammable alcohol that burns with an
almost invisible blue flame. Do not point haze output at sources of
ignition such as open flames or pyrotechnic effects.
•Do not attempt to bypass thermostatic switches, fluid sensors or fuses.
•Replace fuses only with ones of the type and rating specified in this
manual for the machine.
•Provide a minimum free space of 100mm (4 inches) around the machine.
•Provide a minimum free space of 500mm (20 inches) around fans and air
vents and ensure free and unobstructed air flow to and around the
machine.
•Keep the machine at least 60cm (24 inches) away from combustible and
heat-sensitive materials.
•Do not operate the machine if the ambient temperature (Ta) is below 5°
C (41° F) or above 40° C (104° F).
•Do not operate the machine if the relative air humidity exceeds 80%.
Preventing injuries
•Ensure that the surface on which the machine is located or installed can
safely hold the weight of the machine.
•Do not install the machine over areas where people are present.
•This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
•Haze machines can cause condensation. Do not point the output at
smooth floors. Floors and surfaces may become slippery. Check these
frequently and wipe dry as necessary to avoid any danger of slipping.
•Ensure at least 2m visibility in areas where haze is being produced.
•Haze fluid contains food-grade glycols in solution but may present health
risks if swallowed. Do not drink it. Store it securely. If eye contact occurs,
rinse with water. If fluid is swallowed, give water and obtain medical
advice.

Safety information 7
Preventing breathing problems
•A haze machine can operate safely only with the haze fluid it is designed
for. Use the machine only with fluids specified under “Haze fluid options”
on page 21 or you may cause the release of toxic gases, presenting a
severe health hazard. You will also probably damage the machine.
•Do not create dense haze in confined or poorly ventilated areas.
•Do not expose people with health problems (including allergic and/or
respiratory conditions such as asthma) to haze output.
•Do not point haze output directly at a person’s face or at face height.

10 Quick Start
Quick Start
You are no doubt eager to switch on the machine and try it out by making a lot of
haze. This section tells you how to do that. However, please also make the time
to read the safety and servicing instructions in the remainder of this manual.
Setting up
Locate the machine in a suitably large area with nothing in front of the haze
output.
Fill the fluid tank with Martin C-Plus Haze Fluid™ only. Use of other fluid will
void the warranty.
Connect a suitably rated power supply to the machine using the supplied Neutrik
Powercon cable. The power requirements are:
3.1A @ 230V (EU model)
6A @ 120V (US model)
Now set the mains switch, at the rear of the machine, to the ‘ON’ position. The
display will show HEAT. If the display shows OFF press the RUN button (bottom
right hand button) on the digital control panel. After about 6-8 minutes the display
should show CONT and the machine will begin producing haze. If the display
shows RDY press the RUN button to start haze.
Making haze
The two quick access buttons at the bottom left of the control panel automatically
select different haze densities. The SILENT button enables or disables a quieter
run mode. The RUN button starts and stops haze production.
If you want to adjust the haze density manually, press the Menu < > buttons until
the display shows HAZE, then press the Enter button and use the Value up/down
buttons to select a value above 0%.
You can also adjust the fan speed using the FAN menu.
If no haze is produced it may be necessary to prime the
machine, press the Menu <> buttons until the display
shows PRME, then press the Value Up button so the
display shows Y, then press the Enter button.
Switching off
The Hazer Pro is designed to run a self-cleaning cycle on power down to help
prevent blockages, using its built in rechargeable battery. When you turn off the
power the cleaning cycle will begin automatically if required.
If cleaning is needed, the display will show “WAIT”, then “90” counting down to
“00”. The machine will then power off automatically.
