Safety Directions
Direct intrabeam viewing is always hazardous.
Precautions:
Do not stare into the beam or direct it towards other people unnecessarily.
These measures are also valid for the reflected beam.
Looking directly into the reflected laser beam could be dangerous to the eyes
when the laser beam is aimed at areas that reflect like a mirror or emit reflec-
tions unexpectedly (e.g. prisms, mirrors, metallic surfaces, windows).
Precautions:
Do not aim at areas that are essentially reflective, such as a mirror, or which
could emit unwanted reflections. Do not look through or beside the optical
sight at prisms or reflecting objects when the laser is switched on.
The use of Laser Class 3R equipment can be dangerous.
Precautions:
To counteract hazards, it is essential for every user to respect the safety
precautions and control measures specified in the standard IEC 60825-1
(2001-08) resp. EN 60825-1:1994 + A11:1996 + A2:2001, within the hazard
distance*); pay particular attention to Section Three "Users Guide".
Following is an interpretation of the main points in the relevant section of the
standard quoted.
