8.  Relocation: 

8.1. Care should always be taken when moving the 

GentleYAG.

  The system was 

designed to be moved, but special care should be taken when thresholds, 
elevator doors, ramps, and other uneven or sloping floor surfaces are 
encountered.  A severe physical shock could cause the alignment of the 
laser head or the optical fiber to be disturbed.  Furthermore, if the system is 
allowed to get out of control when being m oved, personal injury or physical 
damage could result. 

8.2. If it becomes necessary to relocate the 

GentleYAG

, call Candela or the 

distributor for details.  Failure to do so may result in damage to the system, 
and may void any warranty.
