SPECIFICATIONS The Cyclone™ machine is an electric “Cold Fog” ULV that utilizes a rugged anodized aluminum nozzle and a high performance blower. This device is intended for applications of both Oil Based (following necessary precautions) and Water Based chemical treatments.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE. FAILURE TO PROPERLY FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS MAY LEAD TO A FIRE, EXPLOSION, OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. 1. Electric Power This machine uses electrical power at common commercially available voltages.

danger of fire or explosion in an enclosed space, the enclosed volume fogging time and required formulation volume should be carefully calculated. 5. Proper and Improper Use. The following rules apply to the operation of this machine: Read the entire manual before operating the machine and pay particular attention to all CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS.
Operation Proper application of formulation with this machine requires 7 basic steps as follows: 1. Determine the APPLICATION RATE of the formulation from the formulation label. 2. Measure and calculate the ENCLOSED VOLUME to be treated in cubic feet. 3. Multiply the APPLICATION RATE by the ENCLOSED VOLUME to arrive at the AMOUNT REQUIRED.

6. Hold the meter vertical and allow the liquid to flow through the brass orifice at the outlet end of the meter into an appropriate container. LINE N0. 1 7. Using a stopwatch or a watch with a sweep second hand, determine the FLOWABILITY TIME in seconds that it takes for the liquid level to COUNT SECONDS IT TAKES fall from the top line to the bottom line.
Application 1. Determine the required Machine Valve Setting and application time according to the instructions under PREPARATION. 2. Set the Machine Valve to the required setting. 3. Place sufficient formulation in the container to ensure that the Pickup Filter remains submerged during application.
Valve Adjustment Satisfactory performance of the metering valve depends upon the proper tightness of the nut which retains the sealing gland. If the nut is too tight, the valve will be difficult to turn. If the nut is too loose, the valve may leak air causing loss of calibration.
GENERAL DIMENSIONS The weight of the unit is 14.2 lbs. (6.4 kg) without liquid. The Formulation Tank capacity is 1 US Gallon (3.8 L) Machine Orientation The machine allows adjusting the angle from the horizontal position to 40° from the horizontal position to 20°...
FLOW RATE Turning the knob of the Metering Valve regulates the Flow Rate. If the knob is rotated clockwise, the flow rate will be reduced. If the knob is rotated counterclockwise, the flow rate will be increased. As reference, the average flow rate is shown in the bottom table at ten different positions of the Metering Valve knob.

IMPORTANT: This device is designed to dispense formulation in a SPRAY (Cold Fog) or MIST. Many of the formulations which may be dispensed with this machine require registration with or approval by various government agencies. Application Rate (Fluid Ounces Per 1000 Cubic Feet) 1:00 1:50 1,000...
ROTARY FAN REPLACEMENT CAUTION: The Blower of your machine rotates at a high speed (approximately 20,000 RPM). The replacement of the Rotary Fan, if required, should be performed by a certified Dyna-Fog representative. If the machine has been working in a closed room, the intake air filter gets saturated, and liquid (chemical) is introduced to the blower.
