Operating instructions and warnings
General instructions
- Only use water-based smoke machine fluid. This device is not suitable for oil-based smoke fluids.
- Ayra recommends using Ayra brand fluids with this smoke machine. This device is optimised for use with
these fluids.
- Fluids by other brands may shorten the lifespan of this device as a result of residue left behind in the
pipework.
- Using fluids by other brands can cause the smoke machine to spray hot fluid with the clouds of fog.
- It is recommended to empty the fluid tank before transport.
- Fluid can remain in the tank as long as the device is held upright during transport and the tank contents
does not exceed 50%. As the lid of the tank is not water-tight, fluid splashing around inside the tank during
transport could cause leakage.

indoor ventilation system.
effects visible. Stop producing smoke immediately if the visibility in the room at any given point is 2 metres or
less.
- The smoke produced by this machine is not hazardous to your health as long as the machine is monitored
at all times and there is plenty of ventilation during use. Water-based smoke fluids contain a small amounts
of propylene glycol (no more than 30%) and demineralised water, which can be augmented by other
chemicals, depending on the type of fluid used.

Remote control units
The WSM Black fog machines are equipped with various option for
operation on a distance. The user can choose between three ways of
remote control, each with its own characteristics. This way, the user is
able to choose the right operating mode for any occasion. The third way
of operation, not covered below, is through DMX. This will be explained
later on in this user manual.
1. Wired timer-remote
The wired timer-remote consists of a device with three rotaries, three
pressing buttons and three LED indicators. This remote is equipped with
a solid connection cable and can be connected to the designated
'remote control' input on the fog machine.
Features:
- Interval min - max: Minimum and maximum time of the interval (the
waiting time in between two moments of fog output projection), variable
setting
- Duration min - max: Minimum and maximum time of the fog production
(how long should the fog machine produce fog), variable setting
- Output min - max: minimum and maximum output of the fog machine
for each fog production period of time, variable setting
- yellow LED indicator: status LED for activation timer-function, turned
on when illuminated
- red LED indicator: status LED for activation continuous mode, turned on when illuminated
- green LED indicator: fog machine heater status LED, ready to produce fog when illuminated
- yellow button: timer function on or off
- red button: continuous mode on or off
- green button: manual production of fog based on the set fog machine output level (push and hold)
2. Wireless handheld remote
The WSM Black fog machines have a built-in receiver for the wireless remote. This is a
handheld device, in a key chain sized housing, equipped with a protection cover to avoid
unwanted button pushing.
The remote has an extractable antenna and works on the 433 MHz frequency band,
which ensures that aiming the remote correctly is of less importance to achieve optimal
result compared to infrared remotes. This way the machine can be operated easily on
distance. Both buttons on the remote trigger 100% output from the machine and with a
LED indicator the user knows that the signal is being sent out from the transmitter. Large
objects being positioned between the transmitter and receiver, may alter the operating
range of the remote (such as audience or concrete walls).
Keep in mind that the transmitter and receiver are not connected with an unique ID, so
any transmitter is able to send signals to multiple or different WSM Black series machines.
The remote comes with an A23 type 12V battery (L1028 / LR23A).

Operation and mounting
In order to use this fog machine as intended by the manufacturer, Ayra recommends following the steps
below and reading the instructions thoroughly before use.
Fluid
Before turning on the device, the fluid tank should be filled with a sufficient amount of smoke fluid. Keep the
tank half full for best results. This device functions best with fluids made by Ayra. Good smoke fluid does not
leave residue behind, is more efficient, creates longer-lasting smoke, and produces an almost odourless
mist. The use of other types of fluids could have a negative impact on the lifespan of this machine, and could
result in hazardous hot spatters of fluid.
The WSM Black 01 has a tank capacity of approximately 1.8 litres. The WSM Black 02 and 03 both have
tank capacities of approximately 2.3 litres.
Always fill the tank about 3/4 full instead of completely full. This prevents the contents of the tank from
spilling over if the machine is adjusted or moved.
How much fluid is used depends on many factors, including the type of machine, the type of fluid used and
the characteristics of the room where the machine is being used. It is therefore impossible to give an exact
amount.
As a rule, 1 litre of smoke fluid is sufficient to produce a layer of mist that lasts all evening in a small well-
ventilated venue.
Monitor the fluid level is closely while the machine is in use. The fluid level is clearly visible but the machine
does not automatically warn you if the fluid level is too low.
If the fluid level is too low, then the pump will make more noise and the smoke production will decrease
considerably. If this happens, stop producing smoke immediately and fill the tank with fluid according to the
standard procedure. If the machine runs without fluid for a longer period of time, permanent damage may
occur.
Positioning and installation
The WSM Black smoke machine is designed to be used standing upright or suspended in a stable
construction. In order to prevent unauthorized use of this machine, it is recommended to place it somewhere
out of reach of others, but where you can still monitor it at all times.
If the machine is positioned on a bar, DJ booth or table, the surface needs to be sturdy and able to withstand
heat . Do not place the machine on a surface that is covered with a sheet, tarp, table cloth or foil.
Keep children away from hanging cables and make sure that cables on the floor that are attached to the
machine do not form a tripping hazard.
If the machine is suspended in a truss, at least three of the following instructions need to be followed:
- mount the bracket of the machine using the included hardware.
- tighten the knobs firmly, but not too tightly so that the device can no longer be moved or tilted.
- make sure the load capacity of mounting hardware such as G-hooks or half couplers is sufficient to carry
the weight of the machine.
- attach a safety cable (optionally available) to the machine's safety eyelet when suspending it in a truss.
- attach the (optionally available) safety cable in such a way that the device can't fall more than 30 cm before
the safety cable prevents it from falling any further. Wrap the safety cable multiple times around the truss
construction to keep the falling distance to a minimum.
Before mounting the device to the wall, beam or ceiling, it is recommended to contact a specialist who can
provide advice and proper hardware. A second point needs to be made for attaching the safety cable and the
procedure described above needs to be adhered to.
Warming up
Once the machine has been turned on, the internal heating element needs time to reach the right
