User Safety

WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury read all safety and operating instructions before using this product.

CAUTION:
While the laser tool is in operation, be careful not to expose your eyes to the emitting laser lens. Exposure to a laser beam for an extended time may be hazardous to your eyes.

CAUTION:
This instrument emits a laser beam. The laser beam emitted is Laser Class 2 per IEC 60825-1: 2014 and complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50, dated June 24, 2007.

CAUTION:
Hazardous Radiation. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Retain all sections of the manual for future reference.

WARNING:
The following label samples are placed on your laser tool to inform of the laser class for your convenience and safety. Please reference the Product Manual for the specifics on a particular product model.

DO NOT remove any warning label(s) on the housing. This instrument must only be used for tasks as outlined in the Product Manual.
ALWAYS make sure that any bystanders in the vicinity of use are made aware of the dangers of looking directly into the laser beam.
DO NOT use in combination with other optical instruments. Do not modify the laser tool, make adjustments or use in other applications than those described in the Product Manual.
DO NOT look into the beam lens with optical aids, such as magnifiers, binoculars or telescopes.
DO NOT stare into the laser beam lens.
DO NOT operate the laser tool if damaged or broken.
DO NOT direct the laser tool at other persons.
DO NOT set the instrument at eye level whenever possible.
ALWAYS turn the laser tool OFF when not in use. Leaving the laser tool ON increases the risk of someone inadvertently staring into the laser beam.
DO NOT operate the laser tool in combustible areas such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
DO NOT disassemble the laser tool. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Disassembling the laser will void all warranties on the product. Do not modify the product in any way. Modifying the laser tool may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.
DO NOT use this instrument in areas where a risk of explosion is present.

Battery Safety

WARNING:
Batteries can explode or leak and can cause personal injury or fire. To reduce this risk:
DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
DO NOT store or use in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 105 °F (40.5 °C) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer). For best life, store in a cool, dry location.
DO NOT incinerate even if severely damaged or completely worn out. The battery can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created when lithium ion batteries are burned.

If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with mild soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is composed of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
Contents of opened battery may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air.
If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
Fire hazard. Never attempt to open for any reason. If the housing is cracked or damaged, do not charge. Do not crush, drop, or damage. Do not use if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over, or damaged in any way (e.g. pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged devices should be recycled.
DO NOT charge the battery in an air temperature below +40 °F (+4.5 °C), or above +105 °F (+40.5 °C). Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery is charged when the air temperature is between 65 °F –75 °F (18° and 24 °C).
Never use any charger or cable that is damaged, as it may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.

End of Life GB
DO NOT dispose of this product with household waste.
PLEASE RECYCLE in line with local provisions for the collection and disposal of electrical and electronic waste.

Maintenance and Care

DO NOT allow to get wet. Damage to internal circuits may result. Laser tool is not waterproof.
DO NOT leave laser tool in direct sunlight or expose it to high temperatures.
The housing and some internal parts are polymeric materials and may become deformed at high temperatures.
DO NOT store the laser tool in a cold environment. Moisture may form on interior parts when warming up. This moisture could fog up laser windows and/ or cause corrosion of internal circuit boards.
NOTE: When working in dusty locations, some dirt may collect on the laser window. Remove any moisture or dirt with a soft, dry cloth.
DO NOT use aggressive cleaning agents or solvents.
