Safety
The Quarryman Pro laser scanner is a robust,
ruggedized, field instrument whose applications
include the 3D mapping of entire quarry or mine
sites, determination of 3D rock face geometry,
blast design and volumetric surveying of
stockpiles and reserves. Unit range has been
increased to 750 m to non-reflective surfaces.
It is essential that the unit and all accessories
are operated in accordance with the instructions
in this user manual and it is the responsibility
of the user to ensure that, in the event of a
failure on any part of the Renishaw system, the
equipment remains safe.
In the case of equipment with powers or speeds
capable of causing injury, it is essential that
appropriate safety measures are incorporated
into the equipment operation. Further guidance
can be found in the European Standard EN292
Safety of machinery – General principles of
design – Risk assessment and risk reduction.
The safety of any operations involving the
Quarryman Pro system is the responsibility of
the operator.

Laser safety
DO NOT STARE DIRECTLY
INTO THE BEAM
In accordance with BS EN 60825-1:2014 and
US standards 21CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11
except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice
no. 50, dated June 24, 2007, the Quarryman
Pro laser profiling system is classified as a
Class 2 combined invisible and invisible laser
product. Protective eyewear is not deemed
necessary, as the unit is designed to be safe for
momentary exposures, but can be hazardous
for deliberate staring into the beam. Note that
dazzle, flash blindness and after-images may
result upon eye exposure to the visible laser
source, particularly under low ambient light
conditions. Users are instructed by labelling not
to stare into the beam, i.e. avoid continuous
intentional intrabeam viewing! Eye protection,
designed to provide adequate protection
against specific laser wavelengths (905 nm
typically), may be used in hazard areas. Any
exceptions should only be undertaken with the
approval of the local laser safety officer. All laser
protective eyewear shall be clearly labelled with
information adequate to ensure proper choice
with the particular laser. For the Quarryman Pro
instrument, the recommended CE marked laser
eyewear shall be marked as “R 905 L1” as a
minimum as specified to EN 207, or equivalent.
Do not stare into the beam or shine it into
the eyes of others. It is safe to view a diffuse-
reflected beam. Do not dismantle the unit in any
way; doing so may expose laser radiation in
excess of Class 2 combined limits.
CAUTION – LASER LIGHT IS BRIGHT AND
BLINDING – DO NOT SHINE AT AIRCRAFT
OR VEHICLES AT ANY DISTANCE.
