Laser Safety Notes
STOP AND READ ALL THE LASER SAFETY NOTES BELOW
Laser Light is different from any other light sources with which you may be familiar. The
light from this product can potentially cause eye injury if not set up and used properly.
Laser light is thousands of times more concentrated than lig
ht from any other kind of
light source. This concentration of light can cause instant eye injuries, primarily by
burning the retina (the light sensitive portion at the back of the eye). Even if you cannot
feel “heat” from a laser beam, it can still potentially injure or blind you or your audience.
Even very small amounts of laser light are potentially hazardous even at long distances.
Laser eye injuries can happen quicker than you can blink.
It is incorrect to think that because these laser entertainment products use high speed
scanned laser beams, that an individual laser beam is safe for eye exposure.
It is also incorrect to assume that because the laser light is moving, it is safe. This is not
true. Nor, do the laser beams always move. Since eye injuries can occur instantly, it is
critical to prevent the possibility of any direct eye exposure. In the laser safety regulation,
it is not legal to aim Class 3B lasers in areas where people can be exposed. This is true
even if it is aimed below people’s faces, such as on a dance floor.
•Do not operate the laser without first reading and understanding all safety and
technical data in this manual.
•Always set up and install all laser effects so that all laser light is at least 3
meters (9.8 feet) above the floor on which people can stand. See the “Proper
Usage” section later in this manual.
•After set up, and prior to public use, test the laser to ensure proper function.
Do not use if any defect is detected.
•Laser Light - Avoid Direct Eye Exposure.
•Do not point lasers at people or animals.
•Never look into the laser aperture or laser beams.
•Do not point lasers in areas where people can potentially be exposed, such as
uncontrolled balconies, 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, as this is a US 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, open, or if the optics appear
damaged 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 3B laser show is only allowed if the show is
controlled by a skilled and well-trained operator, familiar with the data included
in this manual.
•The legal requirements for using laser entertainment products vary from
country to country. The user is responsible for the legal requirements at the
location/country of use.
•Always use appropriate lighting safety cables when hanging lights and effects
overhead.
