Quick guide from the manual

The ADJ Entour Snow is a 1250W professional snow machine designed for indoor use. Before operating, ensure the unit is placed on a flat, dry surface and that the voltage matches your local power source. Always use water-based snow juice; using other liquids will cause severe damage. The unit features both manual and timer operation modes, as well as DMX-512 control.

Safety Precautions

  • Indoor use only: Outdoor use voids all warranties.
  • Ventilation: Keep the unit at least 6 inches (15cm) away from walls to ensure proper airflow.
  • Power: Never connect to a dimmer pack. Disconnect from power when not in use.
  • Handling: Never point the machine directly at people or their clothing.
  • Maintenance: Do not remove the top cover; there are no user-serviceable parts inside.

Device Overview

The unit features a hanging bracket compatible with tripod mounting, a 5.6-liter anti-spill fluid tank, and a snow nozzle with a cloth filter. The control panel includes an LCD display, Menu, Up, Down, Manual On/Off, and Timer On/Off buttons. Rear connections include 3-pin and 5-pin DMX input/output, power input, and a power switch.

Maintenance

Keep the fluid clean and free of debris. If the nozzle becomes clogged, contact ADJ customer service. Periodically clean the magnetic air filter by removing the fluid tank, lifting the tank holder, and removing the filter from the inner air inlet grill. Dry the filter before re-installation. To clean the nozzle cloth and spring, carefully snip the zip tie, clean the parts, and reinstall securely with a new zip tie.
