Special information about the laser

Caution: Laser radiation

Do not look into the beam

Laser class 2

• Never look directly into the laser path.
• Never direct the laser beam at reflecting surfaces or persons or animals. Even a low output laser beam can inflict injury on the eye.
• Caution – It is vital to follow the work procedures described in these instructions. Using the equipment in any other way may result in hazardous exposure to laser radiation.
• Never open the laser module.
• It is prohibited to carry out any modifications to the laser to increase its power.
• The manufacturer cannot accept any liability for damage due to non-observance of the safety information.

Safety information on the batteries

Use of the batteries

• Inserting the batteries when the laser is switched on can cause accidents.
• If the equipment is not used correctly, the batteries may leak. Avoid contact with the battery fluid. If you come into contact with battery fluid, clean the affected body part with running water. If you get battery fluid in your eyes, seek immediate medical assistance.
• Escaped battery fluid can cause skin irritation and acid burns.
• Never expose the batteries to excess heat such as sunshine, fire or similar.
• Never recharge batteries that are not suitable for recharging. There is a risk of explosion!
• Keep batteries away from children, do not short circuit batteries or disassemble.
• Seek a doctor’s advice immediately if a battery is swallowed.
• If necessary, clean the contacts on the battery and equipment before inserting the batteries.
• Ensure that you insert the batteries the right way round.
• Remove flat batteries immediately from the equipment. There is an increased risk of leakage.
• Always change all batteries in one go.
• Insert only batteries of the same type, do not use different types of batteries or used and new batteries together.
• Make sure that the equipment is switched off after use.
• Remove the batteries if the equipment is not used over a longer period.
