3. Connection of the air input (to an air compressor or CO2 bottle):
3.1 – Air compressor: Connect the air tube or hose (10) from the air input (3) to the air
compressor. Turn On the air compressor and check that the pressure is between 6 - 8
Bar (90-120 PSI). Check that there is no air leak.
3.2 – Using a CO2 bottle: Attention! This option is only valid when using CO2 bottle of
Gas, NOT liquid, that is, the bottles without the pipe inside, just as the ones used for
draft beer in a Bar. But remember that you need to reduce the high pressure contained
inside the bottle with a pressure regulator. Connect then the air tube/hose (10) from this
pressure regulator to the air input of the machine (3). Open the CO2 cylinder and check
that the pressure is between 6 - 8 Bar (90-120 PSI). Check that there is no air leak.
4. Current input: Plug the machine with a powercon cable (not included) into the power input
(4).
5. You can use diff erent control systems to fi re the machine (eg: 1 CHANNEL FX PUSHER,
1 CHANNEL DMX SWITCH, etc.). Once connected your control system, make a shooting
test without loading the machine with confetti or other consumable. If the setup is correct,
you will hear a strong shot when fi ring the machine. If the air tank of the machine is empty,
you will be able to hear a "clack" noise from the valve
6. Place the output tubes (9) which will fi re the confetti/streamers to the machine and
orientate to the desired angle or direction. Secure the position by tightening strongly the
nuts.
7. Fill up the output tubes (9) with the desired confetti and/or streamers and activate the
power control system which you have decide to use, in order to shoot the machine.
REMARKS
•
If you want to shoot several machines at the same time from the same control, connect
the machines linking them with a powercon cable male-female using the Power output
connector (5) from the 1st machine to the Power Input connector (4) of the 2nd unit, and
so on.
•
For the control of the machine use a system of push-button, not switch.
•
After each shot, the machine is automatically topped-up with air / gas. Wait until the
machine has been reloaded to make the next shot.
