LASER SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STOP AND READ ALL LASER SAFETY DATA
Laser Light is different from any other light source with which you may be familiar. The light from this product can potentially
cause eye injury if not set up and used properly. Laser light is thousands of times more concentrated than light from any other
kind of light source. This concentration of light power can cause instant eye injuries, primarily by burning the retina (the light
sensitive portion at the back of the eye).
Even if you cannot feel “heat” from a laser beam, it can still potentially injure or blind
you or your audience. Even very small amounts of laser light are potentially hazardous even at long distances. Laser eye
injuries can happen quicker than you can blink. It is incorrect to think that because these laser entertainment products split
the laser into hundreds of beams or laser beam is scanned out in high speed, that an individual laser beam is safe for eye
exposure. This laser product uses dozens of mini Watts of laser power (Class 3B levels internally). Many of the individual
beams are potentially hazardous to the eyes. It is also incorrect to assume that because the laser light is moving, it is safe.
This is not true. Nor, do the laser beams always move. Since eye injuries can occur instantly, it is critical to prevent the
possibility of any direct eye exposure. In the laser safety regulation, it is not legal to aim Class 3B lasers in areas which
people can get exposed. This is true even if it is aimed below people’s faces, such as on a dance floor.
Do not operate laser without first reading and
understanding all safety and technical data in this
manual
Always set up and install all laser effects so that all
laser light is at least 3 meters (9.8 feet) above the
floor on which people can stand. See “Proper Laser
Set-
up & Usage” section later in this manual
After set up, and prior to public use test laser to ensure
proper function. Do not use if any defect is detected. Do
not use if laser emits only one or two laser beams rather
than dozens/hundreds, as this could indicate damage
to the diffraction grating optic, and could allow emission
of higher laser levels.
Do not point lasers at people or animals
Never look into the laser aperture or laser beams
Do not point lasers in areas in which people can
potentially get exposed, such as uncontrolled balconies,
etc.
Do not point lasers at highly reflective surfaces such as
windows, mirrors and shiny metal. Even laser
reflections can be hazardous.
Never point a laser at aircraft, this is a federal offense
Never point un-terminated laser beams into the sky
Do not expose the output optic (aperture) to cleaning
chemicals
Do not use laser if the laser appears to be emitting only
one or two beams
Do not use laser if housing is damaged or open, or if
optics appear damaged in any way.
Never open the laser housing. The high laser power
levels inside of the protective housing can start fires,
burn skin and will cause instant eye injury.
Never leave this device running unattended.
The operation of a class 3B laser show laser is only
allowed if the show is controlled by a skilled and
well-trained operator familiar with the data included in
this manual.
The legal requirements for using laser entertainment
products vary from country to country. The user is
responsible for the legal requirements at the
location/country of use.
Always use appropriate lighting safety cables when
hanging lights and effects overhead
Power off before installation or maintenance
The danger class of this laser lighting is CLASS IIIB.
It’s dangerous for observing laser. The safe minimum
distance is 13cm,the safe maximum time is 10 seconds
Keep at least 0.5 meters distance between the lighting
and flammable material
