Do not watch the laser beam directly during operation. Bright light caused by
the lasing process can damage the eye.
The side and rear doors are fixed by screws for safety. If you open these doors,
the LC-M+ will become a Class 4 laser
device. For your safe, please wear
protective goggles.
The laser beam may cause fire. Never leave machine along without other
operator watching during the laser cutting process.
Keep a fire extinguisher near
the machine at any time.
Blowing materials with air flow from nozzle while cutting or engraving can avo
id
fire occurring and also obtain good quality.
Verify that materials used in the cutting are proper for lasing. Never cut
substrates that contain PVC or Teflon.
Good efficiency of exhaust system makes you avoid breathing dust, debris or
poison gas.
Please comply with maintenance schedule as chapter 4 to keep LC-M+
working
well.
Before you execute auto focusing function, please make sure that there will be
no crashing between motion system and other objects. For safety, it is NOT
recommended to use auto focusing function on inequality materials.
