Warning
serious
personal
injury
U.S. customers should refer to and follow the laser safety precautions described in the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z136.1-2007 document,
Safe Use of
Lasers
. Procedures listed in this Standard include the appointment of a Laser Safety Of-
ficer (LSO), operation of the product in an area of limited access by trained personnel,
servicing of equipment only by trained and authorized personnel, and posting of signs
warning of the potential hazards.
European customers should appoint a Laser Safety Officer (LSO) who should refer to
and follow the precautions described in EN 60825-1, 2007—
Safety of Laser Products
.
A risk of exposure to toxic elements, like zinc selenide, may result when certain optical
or beam delivery components are damaged. In the event of damage to laser, marking
head, or beam delivery optics, contact SYNRAD, Inc. or the optics manufacturer for
handling instructions.

Materials processing can generate air contaminants such as vapors, fumes, and/or parti-
cles that may be noxious, toxic, or even fatal. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for
materials being processed should be thoroughly evaluated and the adequacy of provi-
sions for fume extraction, filtering, and venting should be carefully considered. Review
the following references for further information on exposure criteria:
ANSI Z136.1-2007,
Safe Use of Lasers
, section 7.3.
U.S. Government’s
Code of Federal Regulations
: 29 CFR 1910, Subpart Z.
Threshold Limit Values
(TLV’s) published by the American Conference of Governmen-
tal Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH).
It may be necessary to consult with local governmental agencies regarding restrictions
on the venting of processing vapors.
Warning

personal
injury
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Warning
serious
personal
injury
The use of aerosol dusters containing difloroethane causes “blooming”, a condition that
significantly expands and scatters the laser beam. This beam expansion can effect mode
quality and/or cause laser energy to extend beyond the confines of optical elements in
the system, possibly damaging acrylic safety shielding. Do not use air dusters containing
difloroethane in any area adjacent to CO
2
laser systems because difloroethane persists
for long time periods over wide areas.
