Safety rules for laser lights

The laser light/laser radiation used in the GMC REDEYE® 

system is Class 2 with maximum 1mW power and 400-

700nm wavelengths. These lasers do not normally present 

an optical hazard, although staring at the beam may 

cause flash blindness.

Warning. 

Do not stare directly at the laser beam. A 

hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam, 

please observe all safety rules as follows;

•  

The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance 

with the manufacturer’s instructions.

•  

Never aim the beam at any person or an object other 

than the work piece.

LASER LIGHT. LASER RADIATION

Do not stare into beam. 

Only turn laser beam on when tool 

is on work piece. Class 2 laser product

•  

The laser beam shall not be deliberately aimed at 

personnel and shall be prevented from being directed 

towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s.

•  

Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy work 

piece without reflective surfaces. i.e. wood or rough 

coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective 

sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as 

the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the 

operator.

•  

Do not change the laser light assembly with a different 

type. Repairs must only be carried out by the laser 

manufacturer or an authorised agent.

CAUTION: 

Use of controls or adjustments or performance 

of procedures other than those specified herein may result 

in hazardous radiation exposure.
Please refer to the relevant Australian standards, AS 2397 

and AS/NZS2211 for more information on Lasers.
