Safety rules for laser line generators

The laser line generator is Class 2 with maximum 1mW and

400nm – 650nm wavelengths. These lasers do not normally

present an optical hazard, although staring at the beam

may cause flash blindness.

WARNING.

Do not stare directly at the laser beam.

A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam,

please observe all safety rules as follows;

The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance with

the manufacturer’s instructions.

Never aim the beam at any person or an object other than

the work piece.

The laser beam shall not be deliberately aimed at

personnel and shall be prevented from being directed

towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s.

Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy work

piece without reflective surfaces. i.e. wood or rough

coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective

sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as

the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the

operator.

Do not change the laser light assembly with a

different type. Repairs must be carried out by the laser

manufacturer or an authorized agent.

CAUTION.

Use of controls, adjustments

or performance of procedures other than

those specified herein may result in

hazardous radiation exposure.
Please refer to the relevant Australian

standards, AS 2397 and AS/NZS2211

for more information on Lasers.

Additional safety rules for laser

line generator

The laser line generator emits a laser fan beam, which acts

like an invisible surface in the actual three dimensions

space. When used indoors, it generates a visible laser line

on the surfaces the laser fan beam crosses.
The liner is a Class 2 laser tool and is manufactured to

Australian standards, AS 2397 and AS/NZS2211.
The two vials on the top of the laser line generator are

for the laser fan beam alignment reference only. The unit

is not a level and can not be used as a level. The laser

line generator is not designed as a height measuring

instrument and must not be used as such. It is designed

to be referred to its projected line only.

WARNING.

Read and understand all instructions. Failure

to follow all instructions may result in hazardous radiation

exposure, electric shock, fire and/or bodily injury.

Do not remove or deface any labels. Removing labels

increases the risk of exposure to laser radiation.

Do not stare directly at the laser beam as serious eye

injury could result.

Do not project the laser beam directly into the eyes of

others.

Do not place the laser in a position which may cause

anyone to stare into the laser beam intentionally or

unintentionally.

Do not use optical tools such as a telescope or transit

to view the laser beam.

Do not operate the laser line generator around children

or allow children to operate the tool.

Keep children and bystanders away while operating the

laser line generator.

Turn the laser line generator off when it is not in use.

Leaving the laser on increases the risk of staring into

the laser beam.

Do not operate the laser line generator in explosive
