1.7.12 Fire protection
There is an increased risk of fire and explosions with laser cutting machines. Please follow
these guidelines.
DANGER

A reflected laser beam can cause a fire or explosion (take care
with reflecting or combustible materials in the vicinity of the
machine).

Remove oil and grease that is within range of burning or
glowing particles.

Many of the substances we work with can burn. So empty the
bags of waste from the extractor plant regularly (daily).

Make sure that no burning and / or glowing particles get into
the extraction plant (e.g. cigarette ends, paper, cardboard,
etc.). The bag of extracted materials is not a waste bin!

A fire extinguisher (only use CO
2
) should be located in the
immediate vicinity of the machine.

Some materials that are cut with laser cutting machines can
create a higher fire risk in the dust collector (more
information see safety instructions in dust collector manual or
contact LVD)
In a fire or explosion special guidelines should be followed.
LVD is not responsible for any damage resulting from fire or explosion. However we are
pleased to provide you with any information that can contribute to the machine functioning
correctly, such as: recognizing and combating sparks, smoke detectors, heat detectors, etc.
1.7.13 Temperature of parts (burn risks)
Some parts which are cut on the laser cutting machine may be heated-up. The temperature of
the parts depends on type of gas, number of internal contours in the part, the selected cutting
path, size of part, setting of some technology parameters and thickness of plate
WARNING
It’s always recommended to wear safety gloves when picking up the
parts or the scrap of the parts from the machine.
Avoid direct contact between your skin and these parts.
