Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. To maintain
optimum
performance,
However, usage and environmental conditions contribute to increasing the cleaning frequency.
To clean the product, follow the instructions below:
1.
Unplug the product from power.
2.
Wait until the product is at room temperature.
3.
Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the
external surfaces and fan vents.
4.
Clean the transparent panel (laser aperture) with a mild solution of non-ammonia glass
cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.
5.
Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.
6.
Softly wipe any dirt or grime to the outside edges of the glass.
7.
Gently polish the transparent surface until they are free of haze and lint.
Always dry the optical surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
Do not spin the cooling fan using compressed air because you could damage it.
Do not allow the fogger to become clogged. After every 40 hours of continuous operation, use
CHAUVET® Fog Cleaner Quart (FCQ) through the system to prevent the accumulation of
particulate matter in the heating element.
The recommended cleaning procedure is as follows.
1.
Unplug the product from power.
2.
Empty all fog fluid from the machine.
3.
Add cleaning solution to the tank.
4.
Connect the product to power and allow it to warm up.
5.
Run the unit in a well-ventilated area until the tank is almost empty. Do not allow the pump
to run dry.
6.
Refill with fogger fluid to continue using the fogger. Run the machine briefly to clear any
remaining cleaning solution from the pump and heater.
Do not operate the machine without fluid at any time.
FCQ (Fog Cleaner Quart) was specifically developed by Chauvet to clean your
Hurricane™ 700. Make sure you use FCQ regularly, no longer than 90 days between
cleanings, to increase the life of your fogger.
Before storing the fogger, run FCQ through the system as described in the cleaning procedure
above; however, only follow steps 1 through 5. Do not refill the tank with fog fluid if storing
the fogger. Cleaning the system prior to storage will help prevent any particles from
condensing inside the pump or heater while not in use.
Test-run your fog machine on a monthly basis to achieve the best performance.
