· Do not operate the laser without first reading and understanding all the safety and technical
data in this manual.
· ALWAYS set up and install all laser effects so that any laser light is at least 3 meters
(9.8 feet) above the floor on which people are standing. See the
this manual.
· After setup, and prior to public use, test the lasers to ensure they are functioning properly.
Do not use the product if any defect is detected.
· DO NOT use laser if it is emitting only one or two beams, rather than dozens/hundreds, as
this indicates damage to the diffraction grating optic, and allows emission of laser levels
higher than Class 2M.
· DO NOT point lasers at people or animals.
· DO NOT look into the laser aperture or laser beams.
· DO NOT point lasers into areas where people could be exposed to them..
· DO NOT point lasers at highly reflective surfaces such as windows, mirrors, and shiny metal.
Even laser reflections can be hazardous.
· Never point a laser at aircraft; check your local laws for restrictions before using this laser.
· Never point un-terminated laser beams into the sky.
· Do not expose the output optic (aperture) to harsh cleaning chemicals.
· Do not use the laser if the housing is damaged, open, or if the optics appear damaged in any
way.
· Never open the laser housing. The high laser power levels inside of the protective housing
can start fires or burn skin, and will cause instant eye injury.
· Never leave this product running unattended.
· The legal requirements for using laser entertainment products vary from country to country.
The user is responsible for the legal requirements in the location/country of use.
