Thank You!

Thank you for selecting our self-contained power misting equipment for your comfort conditioning needs. These products

have been engineered with the most reliable components and materials available, are are equipped with features to assure

ease of mobility, use and maintenance.

The cool air you will now enjoy when using this misting equipment is created through the process of evaporation. Heat is

required to change water from a liquid to a gas or "water vapor". Our self-contained power misting equipment creates a

"fog" by pumping water at a very low flow rate through small nozzles. When combined with the air added by a fan, this

fog is rapidly evaporated. The heat required to evaporate the fog is extracted from the air causing a reduced air temperature.

This cooler air is then distributed to people or animals creating a direct cooling effect.

The performance of your misting system can be affected by local conditions. For best results, it may be necessary to

experiment with the number of nozzles operating to achieve the cooling performance you desire.

Thank you again and stay cool!

Set-Up / Operation

1. Always operate the power mister on a level surface. In the

event the unit is tipped over or tilted more than 35 degrees, a

built-in tip switch will shut off power to the pump and fan.

Power will be restored when unit is returned to the upright

position.

2. Fill cooler or tank with clean, fresh water (ice may be added)

each time the mister is used. Drain remaining water after

each use.

3. Aim the mister downwind for best results. If more than one

mister is used, arrange them in an arc around the area to be

misted.

4. To energize, plug the GFCI safety plug into any 120 VAC

60 Hz grounded outlet. Test GFCI per instructions below.

Turn the mister on using the toggle switch located on the top

of the pump enclosure. Place the switch in the FAN position

for air movement only, or FAN/MIST for air and mist.

5. Use the pull chain located on the back of the fan to choose

fan speed (OFF, OW, MEDIUM, HIGH). If fan does not

operate when rocker switch is in the FAN or FAN/MIST

position, the pull chain may be OFF.

6. The mist hub located in the center of the fan is equipped with

four nozzles. The output volume of water vapor can be reduced

by replacing one or two of the nozzles with the plugs provided.

7. The unit will mist for approximately five hours on 10 gallons

of water.

GFCI TEST

The ground fault circuit interruptor (GFCI) mentioned above

provides protection from electric shock by examining the product's

electrical circuit for current leakage. It must be tested before each

use to assure safe operation. Follow these steps:

1. Plug into outlet - the indicator will show if power is available.

2. Press the TEST button - indicator will turn off.

3. Press the RESET button. Use product only if GFCI resets.

** DO NOT USE IF TEST FAILS. **

WARNING

HAZARD

INCH HAZARD

TRI HAZARD

• Serious injury or death is possible.

• Plug these units into properly

grounded receptacles only.

• Disconnect from electric supply

before filling, servicing, or

moving this equipment.

• Test GFCI before using. See

instructions at left.

• Do not carry the unit by the motor,

electric cords, hose line, fan guard

or bracket.

• Do not touch fan motor during use

or directly after; it may be hot.

• Do not operate fan without

guards in place.

• Do not insert anything into fan

guard while fan is operating.

• Unplug unit and dry any wet areas

before resetting a unit that has

tipped over.

• Position all electric cords to lie

flat on the ground or floor.

• Never use during rain, sleet, hail,

snow or any other inclement

weather conditions.

Set-Up / Operation (continued)

To prepare for operation:

1. Remove all items from cartons, remove packing

material and place on a level surface. The fan is

mounted on the bracket and the pump assembly is

contained in the lid, so please remove carefully.

2. Place empty cooler/tank in approximate location to be

misted. Carrying a full cooler/tank will be difficult as

it will weigh approximately 80 pounds.and is likely to

spill out if tank is tilted back. This can also make the

unit unstable and hazardous to move.

3. Fill cooler/tank with water (and ice, if desired).

DO NOT FILL ABOVE HANDLE RECESS!

4. Place the fan/pump enclosure on the cooler/tank. Be

sure the intake line and filter are in the bottom of

the cooler/tank.

5. Twist the fan/pump enclosure to engage slots in tank.

* Model PVM18 C does not include a tank. Since the

pump enclosure is specifically made to fit a 10 gallon Igloo

cooler, it must be used only with this type of cooler,

supplied by the user. DO NOT USE THE PVM18LC

WITH ANY OTHER WATER RESERVOIR!

WARNING

TI HAZARD

• Serious injury is possible.

• Support weight of fan with free hand when moving

tank with wheels.

• Do not fill tank before moving.

• Never operate pump without water supply.

• If leaks are observed, turn pump off and tighten fittings by hand.

• Excessively hard water (high solids) can plug nozzles.

• A plugged filter caused by poor water quality can restrict flow to pump and cause permanent damage.

• Never allow "fog" from the nozzles to come in contact with surfaces. This can cause condensation and water will form

on those surfaces; redirect the fan to prevent this circumstance.

Maintenance

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK

HAZARD

• Serious injury or death is possible.

• Disconnect from electrical supply

before performing any maintenance

operations.

NOZZLES

The fog or spray pattern exiting from the nozzles should

have an even cone shape. If this is not the case, the nozzle

should be cleaned or replaced. Nozzle function should be

checked regularly to assure best misting and evaporation

performance.

To clean or replace a nozzle:

1. Disconnect the unit from electrical supply.

2. Unscrew and remove the nozzle.

3. Soak in vinegar, rinse in water OR replace with new

nozzle.

4. Flush the water line to the mist hub before replacing

nozzle.

5. Screw the nozzle into the mist hub by hand.

NO TOOLS SHOULD BE USED TO TIGHTEN

THE NOZZLE.

FILTER

Filter maintenance requirements will vary with changing

water conditions. The filter should be inspected frequently

and changed as needed. A dirty filter will restrict water

flow to the pump and can cause permanent damage.

SYSTEM DRAIN / STORAGE

When it is time to store the VersaMist® or take it out of

use for more than a few days, it is strongly recommended

that the water be drained from the system to prevent

calcification problems and the formation of algae. Be sure

to empty the cooler or tank and allow it to air dry.

Clean the unit with a mild anti-bacterial solution regularly.
