Laser Warnings and Safety

After setting up, and before public use, test laser to ensure proper function. Do not use if any defect
is detected. Do not use if laser emits only one or two laser beams rather than dozens/hundreds, as
this could indicate damage to the diffraction grating optic, and could allow emission of higher laser
levels above Class 3R.
Do not point lasers at people or animals. Never look into the laser aperture or laser beams.
Do not point lasers in areas in which people can potentially get exposed, such as uncontrolled bal-
conies, etc.
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, this is a federal offense.
Never point un-terminated laser beams into the sky.
Do not expose the output optic (aperture) to cleaning chemicals.
Do not use laser if the laser appears to be emitting only one or two beams.
Do not use the laser if the housing is damaged, the housing is open, or if the optics appear dam-
aged in any way.
Never open the laser housing. The high laser power levels inside of the protective housing can start
fires, burn skin and will cause instant eye injury.
Never leave this device running unattended.
The operation of a class 3R laser show is only allowed if the show is controlled by a skilled and well-
trained operator who is familiar with the information enclosed in this manual.
The legal requirements for using laser entertainment products vary from country to country. The user
is responsible for determining the legal requirements at the location/country of use.
Always use proper lighting safety cables when hanging lights and effects overhead.
