sure to unsafe levels of laser radiation. The laser power levels, if the
unit is opened, can cause instant blindness, skin burns and fires.
STOP AND READ ALL LASER SAFETY DATA
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS AND LASER SAFETY
The light source emitted from this product can potentially cause eye
injury if not set up and used properly. The light source emitted from a
laser is very different from any other light sources with which you may
be aware of. Laser light is thousands of times more concentrated
than any light from any other kind of light source. This concentration
of light can cause instant eye injuries, primarily by burning the retina
(the back of your eyeball contatining cells that are sensitive to light).
Even if you cannot feel "heat" from a laser beam, it can still poten-
tially injure or blind you or your audience. Even very small amounts
of laser beam light are potentially hazardous even at long distances.
Laser eye injuries can be sustained faster than you can blink.
Do not think that because this laser splits the laser beam into hun-
dreds of beams and that the laser beam is scanned out in high
speed, that an individual laser beam is safe for eye exposure. This
laser uses dozens of milliwatts of laser power (Class 3B levels inter-
nally) before it splits into multiple beams (Class 3R levels). Many of
the individual beams are potentially hazardous to the eyes.
Do not that because the laser light is moving, it is safe. This is not
true. Nor, do the laser beams always move. Since eye injuries can
occur instantly, it is critical to prevent even the smallest possibility of
any direct eye exposure. In the laser safety regulation, it is not legal
to aim Class 3R lasers in areas which people can get exposed. This
is true even if it is aimed below people's faces, such as on a dance
floor.
Do not operate the laser without first reading and understanding
all safety and technical data in this manual.
Always set up and install all laser effects so that all laser light is at
least 3 meters (9.8 feet) above the floor on which people can stand.
