1.5 General Safety Instructions

• DO NOT operate this machine with its cooling liquid hotter than 100 ℉ (38 ℃ ). If this
temperature is ever approached, stop using the laser but allow the exhaust and water-
cooling systems to continue running to clear and cool the machine.
• DO NOT leave this machine unattended during operation. Observe the machine throughout
the operation and, if anything seems to be operating strangely, immediately cut off ALL
power to the machine and contact either our customer service or your dedicated repair
service. Similarly, ensure the machine is FULLY turned off (including using the emergency
stop switch) after each use.
• DO NOT allow minors, untrained personnel, or personnel suffering from physical or mental
impairment that would affect their ability to follow this manual and the software manual to
install, operate, maintain, or repair this machine.
• ALWAYS keep a fire extinguisher or other flame-retardant system nearby in case of
accidents. Ensure that the local fire department's phone number is displayed nearby. In the
case of a fire, cut electrical power before dousing the flame. Familiarize yourself with the
correct range for your extinguisher before use. Take care not to use the extinguisher too
close to the flame, as its high pressure can produce blowback.
