1 Safety Information

Thank you for choosingRaycus fiber laser. This User Guide provides important safety,

operation, warranty and other information. Please read it carefully before you use this product. In

order to ensure safe operation and optimal performance of the product, please follow the

warnings, cautions, operating procedures and other instructions accordingly.

1.1 Symbols Used in this User Guide

WARNING:

Refers to a potential hazard that may leads to a personal

injury or death.

CAUTION:

Refers to potential a hazard that may leads to

aminorpersonal injury or product damage.

1.2 Laser Classification

This series of lasers are classified as a high power Class 4 laser instrument according to the

European Community standards EN 60825-1, clause 9. This product emits invisible laser

radiation at or around a wavelength of 1080 nm, and the total light power radiated from the

optical output is greater than 1500W~2000W (depending on model). Direct or indirect exposure

of this level of light intensity may cause damage to the eyes or skin. Despite the radiation being

invisible, the beam may cause irreversible damage to the retina and/or cornea. Appropriate and

approved laser safety eyewear must be worn all the time while the laser is operating.
