This section explains how to safely stop the Laser Marker and turn off the electrical power supply.
The Laser Marker must be turned off in a manner appropriate to the length of time of inactivity.
Depending on the length of time of inactive state, a key switch may be used or an emergency stop switch
may be used.

by the key switch. In this case, the laser beam is deactivated but the power is still supplied.
Emergency stop switch:
In an emergency, press the emergency stop switch if you need to stop the Laser Marker immediately.
If it is difficult to access the emergency stop switch of the main power supply or the Laser Marker due
to the dangerous situation that occurs, do nothing and evacuate from the site.

Marker.
If the Laser Marker is turned off unexpectly, you will lose a record of changes that have
not been saved. Make sure all changes are saved by taking the appropriate steps.
