14.6 Laser PRO safety rules
Instructions for preparing the workplace and how to safely operate the Laser PRO on
ZMorph VX.
The Laser PRO Toolhead supplied with the ZMorph VX machine is a 2.8 Watts class 4
laser with emitted wavelength of 450nm.
These types of lasers are extremely dangerous, they emit visible or invisible radiation
and they cause irradiation greater than allowed. Diffuse radiation is dangerous to eyes
and skin. Potential hazards are materials evaporated from the surfaces of illuminated
objects. Depending on the material used, toxic fumes may affect the user's respiratory
tract and eyes.

located and not working before an unprofessional start-up (the key to the room should
only be held by a person authorized to operate the laser),
• It is necessary to mark the entrance door to the room where the device with the at-
tached Laser PRO is used with an appropriate laser radiation warning sign,
