CAUTION
: This device emits visible and invisible
LASER
ra-
diation. Avoid exposure to the beam!
Lasers emit visible and invisible radiation that may cause
damages to material and person, mainly by thermal effect.
Radiation entering the human eye can damage the retina,
which leads to partial or total loss of vision. The damage can
occur without particular perception or sensation of pain.
Please consider all protection and safety regulations
while handling laser systems. Always use laser protection glasses for the specified wave-
length range.
Never direct the laser towards people. Keep the laser beam away from reflective sur-
faces in order to avoid uncontrolled reflections. Do not mount the laser at eye level.
It is your responsibility to guarantee the laser safety as required by law. Please pay at-
tention to safety regulations DIN EN 61010-1, DIN EN 60825-1:2003-10 and DIN EN 60950
when operating the laser.
