Working Safely

Attention, laser radiation!
Damage to the eyes through laser radiation!
The BCL operates with a red-light laser of Class 2. Staring at the laser beam may cause
damage to the retina.
• Never look at the laser beam directly (same as sunlight).
• Do not point the laser beam of the device to other persons.
• When mounting and adjusting the BCL, heed the reflection of the laser beam on reflective sur-
faces.
• Do not open the housing.
Opening it does not interrupt the activation of the laser diode through read clocking.
• Heed the laser safety regulations according to DIN EN 60825-1 (most current version).
