Physical Installation

Important

 Use supplied mounting bracket or rigging clamp to install nozzle.

 Make sure installation location, fastening connecting, and rigging hardware can hold at

least 10 times the weight of the nozzle.

 Make sure no combustible or flammable materials are nearby.

 Secure nozzle with an approved safety cable that can hold at least 10 times the weight

of nozzle.

 Make sure nozzle is installed in a well ventilated area.

 Consider nozzle replacement and routine maintenance access when selecting

installation location.

Adjustable Mouting Bracket

Adjust mounting bracket by loosening screws, set the nozzle to desired angle and tighten

the screw to finish adjustment. Illustration below demostrates how to adjust mounting

bracket.

Mounting

ST-10 Air Hose Extension (Optional)

The maximum air hose length is 20 meters. Illustration below demostrates how to connect

extension air hose.

Fluid

Only use Antari SL-5/SL-5A/SL-5N/SL-5AN liquid for the S-500 Snow Machine. The

machine is tested and calibrated with this liquid to get the best output performance.

Warranty will be void if any other type of liquid is used, improper use of liquid may lead to

machine failure and malfunction.

․ Before storing run distilled water through the system to help avoid condensing the

pump or heater.

․ It is recommended to run the machine on a monthly basis in order to achieve best

performance and output condition.

․ Excessive dust, liquid and dirt built up will degrade performance and cause

overheating.

․ Before storing away after operation, pump pure water through the system for at least 1

to 2 minutes. This will help clean out the remaining snow fluid and prevent pump from

malfunction on next usage.

Breaker Reset
