etc.) electric safety can be improved by inserting
an isolating transformer or a (FI) earth-leakage

Additional safety instructions for lasers
• This laser complies with class 3R according to
DIN EN 60825-1:2001-11 (max 5 mW, 600-680
nm). Do not replace a laser diode with a different
type. If damaged, have the laser repaired by an
authorised repair agent.
Only qualified and trained persons are allowed to
install, adjust and operate the laser equipment.
Areas in wich class 3R lasers are used have to be
posted with an appropriate laser warning sign.
• Do not use the laser for any purpose other than
projecting laser lines.
• Before first use, check that the safety warnings
on the label have been formulated in your
language. Do not use the tool if it does not carry
the warnings in your language!
• Do not remove any of the warning labels from the
tool.
• Do not let children come in contact with the laser.
As the beam of a class 3R laser provides high
visibility over longer distances, the potential risk of
damage to the eye remains unchanged within the
radius of application.
