Laser Safety (Europe)
Laser radiation could be haza rdous to the human body. For this reason, laser radiation emitted inside this machine is
hermetically sealed within the protective hou sing and external cover. In the normal operation of the product by user , no
radiation can leak from the machine.
This machine is classified as Class 1 laser product under IEC/EN 60825-1:20 07.
Caution: Performance of procedures other than those specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
These labels are attached to the laser scanner unit inside the mach ine and are not in a user access area.
The label shown below is attached on the rear side of the machine.

Preface > Notice
SAFETY OF LASER BEAM (USA)
1. Safety of laser beam
This machine has been certified by the manufac turer to Class 1 level under the radiation performance standards
established by the U.S.DHHS (Department of He alth and Human Services) in 1968. This indicates that the product is
safe to use during normal operation and maintenance. The laser optical system, enclosed in a protective hou sing and
sealed within the external covers, never perm its the laser beam to escape.
2. The CDRH Act
A laser-product-related act was implemented on Aug. 2, 1976, by the Center for Devices and Radiologica l Health
(CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This act prohibits the sale of laser product s in the U.S. without
certification, and applies to laser products manufactured after Aug. 1, 1976. The label shown below indica tes
compliance with the CDRH regulations and must be attached to laser products marketed in the United States. On this
machine, the label is on the right.
3. Optical unit
When checking the optical unit, avoid direct exposure to the laser beam, which is invisible. Shown at below is the label
located on the cover of the optical unit.
4. Maintenance
For safety of the service personnel, follow the ma intenance instructions in the other section of this manual.
5. Safety switch
The power to the laser unit is cut off when the front cover is opened.
