2.2 Laser Safety Information

To assess the potential dangers laser systems pose, they are classified into 5
safety classes: 1, 2, 3a, 3b and 4. Speedy 100 is a device of class 2 (USA:
Class II). This is guaranteed by the protective housing and the safety
installations.
Please note that improper operation of the device can override the status of
safety class 2 and can cause the emission of harmful radiation.
This laser engraving system contains a carbon dioxide (CO
that emits intensive and invisible laser radiation. Without safety precautions
the direct radiation or even diffuse reflected radiation is dangerous!
Without safety precautions, the following risks exist with exposure to laser
radiation:
Eyes:
Skin:
Clothing:
Never try to modify or disassemble the laser and do not try to start up a
