Assembly And Operation - Oh!FX CO2 JET Manual De Instrucciones

ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION

1. Attach the accessory JET nozzle (1) or TWIN JET nozzle (2) to the output of the CO2 (3)
of the machine. The single JET nozzle is commonly used to shoot from the bottom up, and
create columns of 8 meters. The TWIN JET nozzle is commonly used to shoot from the top
down and simulate the eff ect known as megatrón or Ibiza eff ect, The TWIN JET nozzle can
also be used to point to two diff erent directions or make a wider column.
2. Place the JET/TWIN JET device/s in the intended place, either on a fl at and stable surface
or hung on a truss structure using a clamp screwed into the nut anchor (8). Ensure the
machine with a safety cable.
3. Orientate the JET/TWIN JET nozzle (1, 2) to the desired angle or direction and secure it
by tightening the nut with a wrench.
4. Connect a Powercon-Schuko cable (not included) to the power In (5) of the machine. If
you want to activate several JET devices simultaneously from the same power control,
simply link the machines by connecting a Powercon cable (male-female), connected on
the Power output (6) connector of the 1st machine, to the Power Input (5) of the next
device, and so on.
5. You can use diff erent control systems to fi re the device/s (eg: 1 CHANNEL FX PUSHER,
1 CHANNEL DMX SWITCH, etc.). Once connected your control system, make a shooting
test without opening the tap of the CO2 bottle. If the setup is correct, the led indicator (7)
will light on, while you are doing the fi ring test.
6. Connect the high pressure hose (9) to the CO2 bottle (with a bottle adaptor with fast
coupling, or a bottle adaptor with purger... depending on the CO2 accessories supplied).
Remember that in order to get the white smoke eff ect, you need to use the CO2 in liquid
status. That is, the CO2 bottles with a probe or pipe inside
7. Connect the other end of the high pressure hose (fast coupling female) to the fast coupling
male (4) of the JET/TWIN JET. Remember to always fi x the safety cable on both edges of
the high pressure hose, to the CO2 bottle and to the JET device.
8. Open the CO2 bottle and, without activating the JET/TWIN JET, make sure there is no
leak. Remember to secure the bottle with tensioners to prevent a possible fall of the bottle.
9. The device is now ready for use. Push your power control or activate it with another control
system for shooting the JET/TWIN JET. It is recommended to keep the JET activated for
no more than about 12 seconds continuous.
DISASSEMBLY
1. For disassembly, the hose must be without pressure. For this purpose, close the CO2
gas bottle and turn On the CO2 JET/TWIN JET to release all the gas inside, before you
disconnect the hose.
REMARKS
1. Remember that in order to have the white smoke eff ect, you must use liquid CO2, that is
the CO2 bottles with a probe or pipe inside.
2. To obtain a nice eff ect of white cryogenic smoke, it is necessary that there is a minimum
humidity of 40% in the air. Otherwise the white smoke doesn't appears visible
