1.5 Safety Measures

1.5.1 General Safety

LASER RADIATION WARNING: Exposure to laser radiation may result in physical burns and severe eye
damage. Proper use and regular maintenance of this machine is important to the safety of all people in the
immediate area.
Prior to operation, carefully read and familiarize yourself with the warning labels located on both your laser
system and in this manual.
Never leave the machine unattended during the laser cutting and engraving process. The laser may ignite
combustible materials. A well-maintained fire extinguisher and operational smoke or fire detector should be
kept in the vicinity of the machine.
Caution—Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Resulting debris from laser cutting are very dangerous and may cause fire hazard.
DO NOT
leave debris and scraps inside laser machine after job finished. Always keep machine clean after job
finished.
・ Resulting debris from laser processing are very dangerous and may cause fire hazard
DO NOT
clean after job finished.
・ Always remove the vector grid to clean any small pieces that have fallen through the grid.
NOTE
SmartGUARD™ is an optional fire detection alarm system. Contact your authorized Roland DG
Corporation dealer for more details for having this safety option installed onto your system.
Enable the SmartAIR™ nozzle when engraving or cutting materials that may easily ignite, such as acrylic, wood,
or paper.
Always wear safety goggles when the laser system is in operation. Reflective materials such as mirrors,
enameled brass and anodized aluminum may partially-reflect some of the invisible laser radiation. Severe eye
damage may occur if proper safety goggles are not worn.
Connect to an electrical outlet that complies with this machine's ratings (for voltage, frequency and current).
Incorrect voltage or insufficient current may cause fire or electrical shock.
Connect the machine to a properly grounded power outlet. Ensure the voltage of the power source is identical
to the voltage of the machine.
When using an extension cord or power strip, use one that adequately satisfies the machine's ratings (for
voltage, frequency, and current). Use of multiple electrical loads on a single electrical outlet or of a lengthy
extension cord may cause fire.
Do not open the laser access panel when the machine is plugged in.
Do not attempt to modify or disassemble the laser module.
Do not attempt to remove or modify any component of the machine's laser interlock safety system.
Ensure the immediate work area of the machine is well-ventilated. Odors, vapors, and dust are by products
generated during the laser engraving and cutting process. An exhaust system, vacuum cutting box, and
honeycomb table are recommended. Please contact your authorized Roland DG Corporation dealer for more
information.
