1. Informazioni sulla sicurezza
This OMTech 60W CO2 Laser Engraver is a Class 2 laser product with 0.827 mW output power. Always follow safety guidelines to prevent injury or damage. Read this manual completely before operation.
- Protezione degli occhi: Never look directly into the laser beam. Always use appropriate laser safety glasses.
- Ventilazione: Ensure adequate ventilation to remove smoke and fumes generated during operation. The built-in air assist helps, but an external exhaust system is crucial.
- Sicurezza antincendio: Do not leave the machine unattended during operation. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Engraving certain materials can cause flames.
- Compatibilità dei materiali: Incidere o tagliare solo materiali compatibili con i laser a CO2. Evitare materiali che producono fumi tossici o sono altamente infiammabili.
- Arresto di emergenza: Familiarizzare con la posizione e la funzione del pulsante di arresto di emergenza.
- Supervisione: L'allargato viewing window is made from flame retardant material for safe observation of the engraving process.
