Safety Precautions
●
Turning the pumping diode on and off frequently will shorten its useful life.
Do not use the Emergency Stop switch to stop the unit unless it is an emergency. Use regular
methods.
●
The useful life of pumping diodes is such that over time their output declines.
When the laser output declines from its initial level, increase the current. The current can be
increased up to the LD current limit (around 50%).
Refer to the manual for LMDraw6 for details.
