SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read the operating instructions carefully and especially observe the safety
information. If you do not follow the safety instructions and information
on proper handling in this manual, we assume no liability for any resulting
personal injury or damage to property. Such cases will invalidate the warranty/
guarantee.
a) Persons / Product
• The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. These may become
dangerous playing material for children.
• Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high
humidity, moisture, flammable gases, vapours and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and
protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if
the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height
can damage the product.
b) Laser
• When operating the laser equipment, always make sure that the laser beam is
directed so that no one is in the projection area and that unintentionally reflected
beams (e.g., from reflective objects) cannot be directed into areas where people
are present.
• Laser radiation can be dangerous, if the laser beam or its reflection enters
unprotected eyes. Therefore, before using the laser equipment, familiarise yourself
with the statutory regulations and instructions for operating such a laser device.
• Never look into the laser beam and never point it at people or animals. Laser
radiation can seriously damage your eyes.
• If laser radiation enters your eyes, close your eyes immediately and move your
head away from the beam.
• If your eyes have been irritated by laser radiation, do not continue to carry out
tasks with safety implications, such as working with machines, working from great
heights or close to high voltage. Also, do not operate any vehicles until the irritation
has completely subsided.
• Do not point the laser beam at mirrors or other reflective surfaces. The uncontrolled,
reflected beam may strike people or animals.
• Never open the device. Setting or maintenance tasks must only be executed by a
trained specialist familiar with potential hazards. Improperly executed adjustments
might result in dangerous laser radiation.
• The product is equipped with a class 2 laser. Laser signs in different languages are
included in the package. If the sign on the laser is not written in the language of
your country, please affix the appropriate sign onto the laser.
VERSION 09/12
• Caution: if operation settings or procedures other than those described in these
instructions are used, it could lead to exposure to dangerous radiation.
c) (Rechargeable) batteries
• Correct polarity must be observed while inserting the (rechargeable) battery.
• The (rechargeable) battery should be removed from the device if it is not used
for a long period of time to avoid damage through leaking. Leaking or damaged
(rechargeable) batteries might cause acid burns when in contact with skin, therefore
use suitable protective gloves to handle corrupted (rechargeable) batteries.
• (Rechargeable) batteries must be kept out of reach of children. Do not leave
(rechargeable) batteries lying around, as there is risk, that children or pets swallow
them.
• (Rechargeable) batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into fire.
Never recharge non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of explosion!
d) Miscellaneous
• Consult an expert when in doubt about operation, safety or connection of the
device.
• Maintenance, modifications and repairs are to be performed exclusively by an
expert or at a qualified shop.
If you are not sure about the correct connection or use, or if questions arise which are not
covered by these operating instructions, please do not hesitate to contact our technical support
