Fire Warning!
Your laser system uses a high intensity beam of light that can generate extremely
high temperatures when it comes into contact with the material being engraved,
marked or cut. Some materials are extremely flammable and can easily ignite and
burst into open flame setting the machine afire. This open flame is very
dangerous and has the potential to destroy not only the machine, but the building
in which it is housed.
Experience shows that vector cutting with the laser has the most potential to
create an open flame. Many materials are susceptible to igniting, but acrylic, in
all its different forms, has been shown to be especially flammable when vector
cutting with the laser.
Please read the following warnings and recommendations and follow them closely
at all times!
NEVER
let the laser system operate if it will be unattended.
KEEP
the area around the machine clean and free of clutter, combustible
materials, explosives, or volatile solvents such as acetone, alcohol, or
gasoline.
ALWAYS
keep a properly maintained and inspected fire extinguisher on
hand. Epilog recommends a Halotron fire extinguisher or a multi-purpose
dry chemical fire extinguisher. The Halotron extinguishers are more
expensive than a dry chemical, but offer certain advantages should you
ever need to use an extinguisher. The Halotron extinguisher discharges a
clean, easily removable substance that is not harmful to the mechanics or
wiring of the laser system. The dry chemical extinguisher discharges a
sticky, corrosive powder that is very difficult to clean up.
ALWAYS
use air assist when vector cutting.
BE
CAREFUL
! when vector cutting. Many materials have the potential to
burst suddenly into flames – even materials that may be very familiar to
the user. Always monitor the machine when it is operating.
KEEP
YOUR
LASER
SYSTEM
CLEAN
– A build up of cutting and
engraving reside and debris is dangerous and can create a fire hazard in its
own right. Keep your laser system clean and free of debris. Regularly
remove the vector grid to clean any small pieces that have fallen through
the grid.
