SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the device has been exposed to great temperature changes, do not switch it on
immediately. Condensation water may damage your device. Leave the device
switched off until it has reached room temperature.
The laser must only be used for shows. Any operation has to be attended and
supervised by a skilled and well-trained operator.
Never leave this device running unattended and keep it away from children and
unauthorized persons.
Keep away from heaters and other heat sources. In order to safeguard sufficient
ventilation, leave 50 cm of free space around the device.
Never direct the laser beam to people or animals.
CAUTION LASER DIODE: If you open the device for cleaning, always disconnect from
mains!

HEALTH HAZARD! Never look directly into the light source, as
sensitive persons may suffer an epileptic shock!
These lasers are considered a definite eye hazard,
particularly at the higher power levels, which WILL cause
eye damage. So these laser series models supplied with a
key switch to prevent unauthorized use, warning labels
and aperture labels affixed to the laser.
Installation safety
Prior to installation and operation of the laser, the paths of the
beams and effects should be considered, particularly with respect to how they will reach the
audience. If direct audience scanning is desired, then the laser energy in the effects needs to
be considered to decide if the effects are safe for direct viewing. Always ensure, that the
maximum permissible exposure (MPE) is not exceeded in the area accesible to the public. So
install the laser in such a way, that minimum distances and heights ensure the MPE is never
exceeded in the public area.

OPERATING THE LASER
The operator has to make sure that laser radiation – also reflected laser radiation – higher
than the maximum permissible level is avoided by technical or organisational measures.
(Especially with respect to the MPE, see above.)
Make sure to use the correct voltage
If the device is used in a flying installation, the mounting brackets and an appropriate safety-
rope must be fixed.
