    Cautions in Handling Laser Beam This product falls into Class 4 laser (marking laser) and Class 2 laser (guide laser) based on the classifications of IEC60825- 1 “Safety of laser products”. Class 4 laser refers to “Laser products for which intrabeam viewing and skin exposure is hazardous and for which the viewing of diffuse reflections may be hazardous.
  • Page 7 DANGER Never look at laser beam directly or through lens. Diffused reflected beam is also harmful. laser does not enter into eye's retina, however, if it exposed to the eyes, it can inflict severe corneal injuries. Never touch laser beam. Be careful not to touch laser beam with clothing as well.

  • Page 8: Safety Protection Measures

    Safety Protection Measures This product falls into Class 4 laser (marking laser) and Class 2 laser (guide laser) based on the classifications of the Safety of laser products (JIS C 6802) / FDA standards 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11/IEC60825-1. Perform the safety protection measure shown below before using the system. For more detail instruction, refer to each of the standard.
  • Page 9 5. Power failure recovery For power failure occurs on the laser marker, construct a laser re-pumping system by manual operation for safety. 6. Radiation direction of laser beam To assure safety, be sure to place the protective enclosure. Measures should be taken so that the direction of laser radiation can be seen and checked by others as well as an operator.
