Safety Precautions
Wear protective eyewear
Always wear protective eyewear having an optical density of at
least 7 when using the Laser Marker.
Keep in mind that exposure of the eyes to direct laser
irradiation through protective eyewear may result in blindness,
even when wearing protective eyewear. Protective eyewear
attenuates the laser beam, but does not block it.
Never aim the laser at any parts of your own body or those
of other individuals
Exposure to laser beams will cause severe burns.
Never aim the laser at yourself or at anyone else.
Do not touch workpieces during or just after marking
Workpieces may still be very hot.
Use only the specified cables. Make sure they are firmly
connected
Using cables of inadequate current capacity or connecting
cables loosely may result in fire or electric shock.
Avoid damaging power or connecting cables
Do not step on, twist, or pull cables.
Damaged cables may result in electric shock, short circuits, or
fires.
To repair or replace cables, contact your dealer or us.
Stop using the Laser Marker if any problems arise
Continuing to use the Laser Marker in the presence of
abnormalities (fumes, unusual sounds, excessive heat, smoke,
and so forth) may result in electric shock or fire.
In this case, immediately turn OFF the Laser Marker and
contact your dealer or us.
Ground the Laser Marker
Make sure that the Laser Marker is grounded before turning ON
the power supply. Failure to ground the Laser Marker may
result in electric shock.
Pacemaker users must not approach the Laser Marker
Unless a physician has consented, pacemaker users must not
approach the Laser Marker in use, or even approach the
working area.
The Laser Marker generates electromagnetic fields that may
affect pacemaker function.
