LASER WARNINGS AND SAFETY
After completing setup, and before public use, test the laser to ensure proper function. Do not use
if any defects are detected. Do not use if the laser emits only a few laser beams rather than dozens/
hundreds, as this could indicate damage to the diraction grating optic, and could allow emission of
laser intensity levels that exceed Class 3R.
• Do not point lasers at people or animals. Never look into the laser aperture or directly at laser
beams.
• Do not point lasers into areas which could create instances of unintentional or harmful exposure,
such as uncontrolled balconies, etc.
• Do not point lasers at highly reective surfaces, such as windows, mirrors, and shiny metal. Even
laser reections can be hazardous.
• Never point a laser at aircraft. This is a federal oense.
• Never point un-terminated laser beams into the sky.
• Do not expose the output optic (aperture) to cleaning chemicals.
• Do not use laser if the laser appears to be emitting only a few beams.
• Do not use the laser if the housing is damaged, the housing is open, or if the optics appear dam-
aged in any way.
• Never open the laser housing. The high laser power levels inside of the protective housing can
start res, burn skin, and will cause instantaneous eye injury.
• Never leave this device running unattended.
• The operation of a class 3R laser show is only allowed if the show is controlled by a skilled and
well-trained operator who is familiar with the information enclosed in this manual.
• The legal requirements for using laser entertainment products vary from country to country. The
user is responsible for determining the legal requirements at the location/country of use.
• Always use proper lighting safety cables when hanging lights and eects overhead.
