SAFETY

Ensure that the light beam is, at all times, aimed at an area which will not cause any hazards from the light source.
Hazards can be direct (e.g., eye damage with prolonged exposure). Hazards can be indirect (e.g., LASER light aimed at or entering the eyes of someone piloting an aircraft or driving a vehicle, or using other potentially hazardous equipment, can become a
distraction or cause temporary blindness; This can cause unsafe operation of the aircraft or vehicle or equipment which leads to subsequent injury).
When using, be aware of the possibility of weakened light from the laser being reflected towards you from water surfaces.
Lasers can cause temporary flash blindness from either direct or reflective light entering the eyes. Use suitable laser protective eyewear. Never use over an open hole without appropriate safety equipment. Users should carry out their own risk assessment if other hazards from temporary blindness are possible.
Always comply with any international and local laws or regulations regarding the use of LASER pointers and similar equipment.
To avoid risk of LASER light hazard, ensure the unit is switched off when not in use.
