Laser Plummet
General
The laser plummet built into the product produces a visible red laser beam which
emerges from the bottom of the product.
The laser product described in this section is classified as laser class 2 in accordance
with:
• IEC 60825-1 (2014-05): "Safety of laser products"
These products are safe for momentary exposures but can be hazardous for deliberate
staring into the beam. The beam may cause dazzle, flash-blindness and after-images,
particularly under low ambient light conditions.
CAUTION
From a safety perspective, class 2 laser products are not inherently safe for the eyes.
Precautions:
1) Avoid staring into the beam or viewing it through optical instruments.
2) Avoid pointing the beam at other people or at animals.
