INTRODUCTION
The MAGNUM 800 is a compact and efficient fog generator for semi-professional use. It
utilises a water-based fluid with an aluminium and copper heat exchanger to create a white fog
for entertainment and theatrical use. Quality materials and innovative design combine to give
ease of use and long service life.
FEATURES:
•1 litre fluid container
•Remote control with timer and output controls
•5 metre remote cable
•750 W heating element
•Copper and aluminium heat exchanger
•'Pump Ramping' feature to maximise run time
•Compact, only 170 x 422 x 160 mm
•Light weight, only 5 kg
•Power ON/OFF switch
•IEC power inlet
•Efficient insulation
•Fail-safe over-temperature cut-out (manual reset)
SAFETY
•Read this manual thoroughly before operating the machine.
•Never install fog machines over people's heads.
•Do not restrict the ventilation on the machine.
•Operating the machine in areas with poor ventilation may lead to condensation forming on
surfaces and floors - THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS.
•Do not point the machine into people's faces when making fog.
•Never remove the cover without first disconnecting the machine from the power supply.
•Keep the output of the machine at least 60 cm (2 feet) away from people and surfaces.
•The output nozzle at the front of the machine is very hot and must not be touched.
•Observe the warnings printed on the machine.
•Do not use the machine if it is in poor or unsafe condition, e.g., if the supply cord is
damaged.
•Always use genuine JEM / MARTIN fluid in the machine, other fluids may be dangerous.
•Refer all service to qualified service personnel.

INSTALLING THE FLUID BOTTLE
Always disconnect the machine from the power supply when working with the fluid
system.
1. Fit the bottle of JEM / MARTIN fluid into the fluid compartment and fit the cap with fluid
pipe.
2. Do not attempt to fill the bottle whilst in the machine.
3. If the machine has not been used recently it may be necessary to operate the pump for 10
- 15 seconds to prime the pump. Do this by setting the fog level on the remote to maximum
and pressing the fog button when the machine is at operating temperature.
Avoid running the pump for long periods without fluid, as this can cause damage to the seals.
CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Check the rating plate on the machine to see that the rated voltage and frequency match the
local supply.
This machine must be earthed!
The wires in the standard cord are coloured as follows:-
Green/Yellow Earth connection
Blue Neutral connection
Brown Live (phase) connection
1. Fit the cord to the IEC connector on the machine and the power supply connector.
2. Before switching the machine on, set controls on the remote to the off positions. See the
section on the remote control for instructions. The remote must be connected for the
machine to start heating.
3. Set the power switch to ‘1’ and the Heating LED on the remote will light up. The machine
will take approximately 10 minutes to reach operating temperature, at which point the
Ready LED will light up.
4. The machine will now make fog when operated from the remote.

OPERATING THE REMOTE
MAINTENANCE
The MAGNUM 800 is designed and constructed to give a long and trouble-free service
life.
However, like all equipment, it will benefit from regular simple maintenance.
Keep the following points in mind:
•If fluid is spilt onto the casework of the machine it should be cleaned with a damp cloth
(disconnect the power supply before doing this).
•Do not use solvents to clean the casework of the machine as this may remove the silk
screen printing.
•Only use JEM / MARTIN fluid in the machine. Other fluids may cause damage to the heat
exchanger and other components.
•Keep the cables in good condition.
Timer Control and LED
The timer is switched on by rotating the Timer control
clockwise until the green Timer LED is on. At this point the
repetition rate of the timed pulse is minimum. Rotating the
control clockwise causes the repetition rate to increase. The
duration of the pulse is fixed, only the frequency can be
changed. When combined with the output level control this
provides a simple way to maintain a constant level of fog.
Fog Switch
Press the fog switch at any time (the Ready LED must be on)
to get fog output at the level currently set with the level control.
Ready LED (Green)
When the machine is up to operating temperature and capable
of producing fog, the Ready LED is on.
Heat LED (Red)
The Heat LED is on when power is being supplied to the heat
exchanger. When the maximum operating temperature is
reached the LED is off.
Output Level Control
The output level is rotated clockwise to increase the fog output
level. Remember that the machine has ‘Pump Ramping’ so that
the output level will automatically reduce as the heat
exchanger cools, thus allowing longer run times.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
All checks marked * must be carried out with the power supply disconnected from the
machine.
The inside of the machine contains parts at high temperature, always allow the machine
to cool before removing the cover.
Symptom Probable Cause Remedy
No LEDs come on when
power is applied to the
machine
•Remote control not
connected
Connect remote to the DIN socket on
the top of the machine
•Main power switch is
off
Switch on
•Main internal fuse
open circuit
*Remove the cover and locate the
fuse on the PCB. Replace the fuse
with one of correct rating. (See Tech.
Spec)
•Temperature sensor
open circuit
*Make a continuity check on the
sensor
The machine never
reaches operating
temperature (ready LED
never comes on)
•An electronic or other
failure has occurred
in the heating system
Refer the problem to a service agent
•The remote control or
its connections are
faulty
Replace the remote control
No smoke is produced
when the Fog button is
pressed
•No fluid in the bottle Replace the bottle
•The pump system is
not primed with fluid
Set the output level control to
maximum and hold down the Fog
button for 15 seconds
•The output control is
not set high enough
Increase the output level setting
•An electronic failure
has occurred
Refer the problem to a service agent
Never replace the internal fuse with one of a higher rating. If the fuse blows when
replaced, it means that there is a serious problem with the machine that should be
referred to a service agent.
Never operate the machine with the safety over-temperature trip disabled. If the trip
operates it means that the electronic control system has malfunctioned.
