Additional safety instructions for lasers
• This laser complies with class 2 according to
EN 60825-1:1994+A11. Do not replace a laser
diode with a different type. If damaged, have the
laser repaired by an authorised repair agent.
• Do not use the laser for any purpose other than
projecting laser lines.
An exposure of the eye to the beam of a class 2 laser
is considered safe for a maximum of 0.25 seconds.
Eyelid reflexes will normally provide adequate
protection. At distances over 1 m, the laser complies
with class 1 and thus is considered completely safe.
• Never look into the laser beam directly and
intentionally.
• Do not use optical tools to view the laser beam.
• Do not set up the tool at a position where the
laser beam can cross any person at head height.
• Do not let children come in contact with the laser.
