Laser safety information
This laser cutter system contains a 750w IPG Fiber laser of
class 4 that emits intensive and invisible laser radiation.
Without safety precautions the direct radiation or even
diffuse reflected radiation is dangerous!
Without safety precautions, the following risks exist with
exposure to laser radiation:
Eyes: Burns to the cornea for fiber laser.
Skin: Burns
Clothes: Danger of fire.
NEVER try to modify or disassemble the laser and do not try
to start up a system that had been modified or dissembled!

CLEANING THE LASER MACHINE
CAUTION –Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous laser radiation exposure.
By starting cleaning and maintenance work always make sure
the machine is switched off and unplug the mains plug.
You should always check at least once a day, whether dust has
accumulated in the laser system. In case of soiling the machine
must be cleaned. The cleaning interval strongly depends on
the type of metal that is being used. Please bear in mind that
only a clean machine guarantees optimal performance and reduces the service
recommendation.
CAUTION –Always keep the system clean, as flammable parts
in the working area raise the fire hazard.
General Cleaning:
1Move the laser head so it is easier to access the work area to clean it,
and also to the place where you need to clean.
