  • Page 3: Principles Of Operation

    PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION VectorFog™ Thermal Foggers are powered using the pulse jet principle. Pulse jet engines don’t have any moving parts; instead they have a funnel shaped combustion chamber similar to a rocket engine which opens into a long resonator or exhaust pipe. VectorFog thermal foggers have an auto start and operate through compressed air via a compressor.
  • Page 4 CHECKLIST BEFORE STARTING THE UNIT Unpacking the unit When unpacking the unit, please make sure that that the machine is not damaged and that all the accessories mentioned in this manual are not missing. Charge the battery Make sure the right power supply is being used (110/220 volts). Connect the charger to the unit and then connect to the mains.
  • Page 5 Fill the chemical tank Pour the special fogging chemical mixture into the chemical tank. It is important not to add more chemical than it’s needed. Once you have used the machine, please make sure there is no chemical left in the tank. Chemicals can solidify and could block the system next time round.
  • Page 6 To start fogging Once the machine has heated up for 10 seconds, first turn the “Close Valve” and then the chemical supply valve slowly counter clockwise. On SF models you will need to switch the directional valve situated on top of the resonator to fog oil based chemicals, by turning it clockwise.
  • Page 7: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE Cleaning the Chemical Tank and Pipes Fill the chemical tank with 25% of clean water and turn on the unit. Then open the chemical supply and close valves to flush it through. This will prevent corrosion and the accumulation of chemical deposits in the tank and pipes. Spark Plug Maintenance Remove the spark plug using a spanner or spark plug remover.
  • Page 8: Common Troubleshooting

    Maintaining the valve petal Unscrew the fuel filter and regulator (if applicable) before unscrewing the top of the carburettor. Check the valve for any distortions or cracks. If it’s damaged, you will need to replace this part. TIP: It’s important to assemble the parts of the carburettor in the order there where disassembled.

  • Page 10 Remove carbon deposits in the resonator with the wire brush provided. Use and forward and backward motion. The machine doesn’t fog or doesn’t fog enough: • Check that the chemical supply valve is opened. This is done by turning it anticlockwise. Make sure that the close valve is set to the open position.
