3. Safety instructions
3.1. Overview
The SF40/C is a laser rangefinder that emits ionizinglaser radiation. The level of the laser emission is Class 1M
which indicates that the laser beam is safe to look at with the unaided eye but must not be viewed using binoculars
or other optical devices at a distance of less than 15 meters. Notwithstanding the safety rating, avoid looking into the
beam and switch the unit off when working in the area.
CAUTION --Theuse of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.
The SF40/C should not be disassembled or modifiedin any way. The laser eye safety rating depends on the
mechanical integrity of the optics and electronics so if these are damaged do not continue using the SF40/C. There
are no user serviceable parts and maintenance or repair must only be carried out by the manufacturer or a qualified
service agent.
No regular maintenance is required for the SF40/C but if the lenses start to collect dust then they may be wiped with
suitable lens cleaning materials. Make sure that the SF40/C is switched OFF before lookinginto the lenses.
The SF40/C should be mounted using the four holes provided in the circuit board. Do not hold or clamp the lens
tubes as this may cause damage and adversely affect the laser safety rating.
