Safety First (Important)

DANGER—VISIBLE LASER RADIATION
AVOID EYE OR SKIN EXPOSURE TO DIRECT OR SCATTERED RADIATION.

General safety
Read and get familiar with all safety precautions and measures before using the machine. Strictly follow all safety precautions. Ensure that the machine is properly assembled and is working properly.

Follow the operating principles:

  • Check the machine for damage every time before you use it. Do not operate it in any way when any damage or defect is found.
  • Ensure that the workspace is clean and flat. Note that the laser tube is made of glass and is very fragile. If it is broken, the device will fail to work.
  • Do not disassemble the machine or change its structure in any way without authorization. Do not modify or decompile its operating system.
  • Do not leave the device unattended during operation.
  • Keep the inside of the machine clean. Residues and chippings accumulated during cutting and engraving are dangerous and may cause fire. Clean the chippings and residues in the tray regularly.
  • The machine works properly at the temperature of 10°C to 30°C and can be stored properly at the temperature of 10°C to 45°C. Do not operate it at a temperature lower than 0°C.

Laser safety

Under normal circumstances, the CO2 laser tube is completely enclosed in a casing during operation. The device has a safety interlock switch. If the lid is lifted during operation, the device will stop working to  prevent harming people. No special precautions are required to ensure laser safety.

Follow the safety precautions:

  • Do not operate the machine when any part of it is removed. Removing any part may expose the laser system and cause damage to the machine. Remember that the CO2 laser beam is invisible.
  • Do not engrave or cut any material that contains PVC or vinyl (processing plastics is not recommended). These materials (and other materials containing chlorine/chloride) can generate corrosive vapor that is  extremely harmful to the human body and can cause damage to the device. Any damage caused by engraving or cutting any material containing PVC or vinyl is not covered by the Company’s warranty.
  • Do not engrave or cut any unknown materials. Vaporization or melting of many materials, which include but are not limited to PVC and polycarbonate, may release harmful smocked not leave the machine  unattended when it is working.
  • Laser operation is prohibited when the lid is lifted. Make sure that the lid is closed during operation and do not tamper with the safety mechanism of the lid.
  • Do not operate the device before properly connecting a smoke purifier. Most materials produce irritating smoke when being processed. These include, but are not limited to, paints, varnishes, composite boards, and plastics that can produce hazardous compounds during processing.
    The reference standard for laser safety is American National Standard for Safe Use of Lasers (Z136.1-2000), which is provided by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
    This reference is the basis for federal regulations and laser system manufacturers, as well as the laser safety guidelines of Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). It contains details on the  proper installation and use of laser systems.

Fire safety

A high-density laser beam is used by the device to irradiate the material to be cut or engraved, so as to heat up the material surface and vaporize the material without burning. But most materials are inherently  flammable and may be ignited to form an open flame that can burn down the device (even if it is made of flame-retardant materials) and its surroundings. Experience shows that vector cutting with a laser is most  likely to produce an open flame. In particular, acrylic has proven to be extremely flammable in vector cutting.

Read the following warnings and suggestions carefully:

  • Do not stack materials (especially organic ones, such as paper) around the machine. They may cause the spread of flames and increase the risk of material ignition.
  • Do not leave the machine unattended when it is working. If the machine works with setting errors and is left unattended for a long period of time, or if a mechanical or electrical fault occurs, a fire may be caused.
  • Clean the device regularly. Excessive accumulation of residues and chippings from cutting and engraving would increase the risk of fire. The tray needs be removed and cleaned periodically to ensure that there  is no residue or chipping in the device.
  • Ensure that the area around the machine is clean without any cluttered flammable materials, explosives, or volatile solvents, such as acetone, alcohol, or gasoline.
  • Keep a fire extinguisher and perform regular maintenance and inspection of it.

****Do not leave the device unattended when it is working.
Keep combustible materials away from the device.

Electrical safety
Laser tube of the device has a silicone rubber casing, which can effectively shield the internal power cord. If you find the cover is loose and the power cord is exposed, stop operating and contact customer service personnel.

****Read the following warnings and suggestions carefully:

  • Do not open any access panel on the device when the device is connected to the power supply. Accidental contact with the power supply may cause injury.
  • Do not touch any electronic area with your hands or other tools when the machine is connected to a power supply.
  • The power switch is on the back of the device. Press (-) to power it on and pressing (o) to power it off.

Warnings and instruction signs
On xTool P2, the warning and instruction signs are labelled where physical injuries or damage to the machine may be caused before and/or during operation. If a sign is damaged or lost, replace it immediately. You  can use the following template to print the sign you need.
