User’s Manual & Laser Safety Guide | 1
First and foremost, we are laser enthusiasts. We desire nothing more than
to achieve perfection in our craft. For us, pushing the limits of technology
is part of our daily routine. It’s only impossible if we don’t try.
As we continue to advance in our search for perfection, we’ve set
benchmarks for others to follow and new limits for us to test. This is our
mission. We plan to continually push the boundaries of technology and
create products that challenge the imagination far into the future.
FOREWORD
User’s Manual & Laser Safety Guide | 1
We wanted to create the world’s most powerful handheld laser - we
succeeded and inadvertently set a world record in doing so. We are
extremely proud to be included in the Guinness Book of World Records
for 2007. This will serve as a testament to our commitment to providing the
world with the most sophisticated laser products technology can oer.
Designed and developed by some of the world’s best engineers, the Spyder
Series stands at the pinnacle of laser technology. Lithium powered, waterresistant and ultimately powerful, the Spyder Series is our most advanced
line of handheld lasers to date.
We still have much to prove as there is still a world of possibilities in front of
us. Our quest to turn science ction into reality has only just begun.

Stronger, Brighter, Clearer, Better, the Nano is the
laser for professionals – true professionals. The green
Nano produces up to 15mW of power, enabling you to
point with precision from across a football eld and it
comes with a digital microprocessor that allows you to
double-click to keep the laser in on mode indenitely.
All of our Nano lasers are powered by two standard
AAA batteries with a digital microprocessor which
ensures your laser puts out exactly the same beam
from the instant you put batteries in to the last second
of their power – no unprofessional ickering or fading
at a critical moment.
We guarantee that there is no more powerful handheld
laser of this size available on the market today with the
necessary safety compliance that will let you safely,
creatively, and responsibly – awe the people who
know them.

Safety and Maintenance
No scheduled maintenance necessary to keep the
product in compliance. Simply keep the laser free
from dust or other contaminates that could cloud or
dirty the laser lens or crystal array and operate within
recommended parameters.
Avoid direct eye and skin exposure to the laser
beam. Direct contact with the beam can instantly
cause severe and irreparable eye damage. Note that
a reected laser beam can be just as powerful as
directly coming from the laser unit itself.
We strongly recommend using the LaserShades that
come with this laser or wearing similar approved laser
safety eyewear.
Do not take apart, modify or dismantle the laser or
operate it under abnormal current load (doing so will
void the warranty). Strictly no service is allowed.
Operate your laser only within the specied
temperature range of 10°C (50°F) to 40°C (104°F).
Should you have diculty operating the laser
properly and troubleshooting does not work, go
to www.wickedlasers.com for support and RMA
assistance if necessary. Do not attempt to service,
modify or x the laser yourself.
Do not shine your laser at an aircraft. It may cause
a distraction to the pilots putting the aircraft’s
passangers at considerable risk. Shooting a laser at
an aircraft is considered a felony in the U.S.

Lens Cleaning Procedure and Troubleshooting
What you need :
Microber Cloth - Please make
sure the microber cloth is specically
designed for cleaning lenses. You can
nd this at your local camera or glasses
store.
Q-Tip or Tooth Pick - You will need
to fold the cloth over one of these
in order to be able to reach the lens
properly.
Lens Cleaning Solutions (Optional)
- Use the lens cleaning solution only
if the lens is not cleaned using the
microber cloth alone. Please make
sure the cleaning solution is designed
specically for lens cleaning.
1.
2.
3.
Procedure :
Wash your hand with soap and water. Make sure to dry them properly.
Remove the batteries from your laser prior to cleaning.
Fold the microbre cloth over a toothpick or the handle part of a Q-tip. Make sure
you do not touch the part of the cloth that will be cleaning the lens. You probably
will not be able to fold the cloth twice, so you need to be very careful not to press too
hard on the lens.
Gently move the cloth into the aperture until it comes in contact with the lens. Rub
it from side to side but do not press too hard. Gently rotate the cloth in a twisting
motion back and forth. Repeat this procedure until the lens of your laser is clean.
Re-insert the batteries and turn your laser unit on to see if the lens is clean.
Still dirty? Apply only 1 drop of Lens Cleaning Solution to the part of the cloth that
will be cleaning the lens, the follow the same procedure as above. You will want to
nish by using a dry part of the cloth to wipe the lens dry, this should take one pass
side to side or gentle rotate.

WARNING : DO NOT USE WATER
Dirty Lens
- The most common problem with your laser
unit is a dirty lens. The easiest way to determine whether
you have a dirty lens is to look at the lens under direct
light. If you see smudges, nger prints, or small particles
on the lens, the beam emitted will look similar to the above
pictures. Simply follow the cleaning instructions to restore
the spot back to a focused dot.
1.
Types of Common Lens Problems
Scratched Lens - A scratched lens may occur if you
accidentally scratch the lens with a hard or rough surface.
The lens of your laser unit is similar to that of a camera, please
handle with care. This condition can be repaired by Wicked
Lasers, however, will not be covered in your warranty. A
repair cost will apply.

Mode Shifts - A mode shift may occur under extreme temperatures. If your laser unit is too hot or too cold, the beam may appear
unstable and look similar to the above pictures. Please note that as your laser “warms up” and returns to room temperature, the beam
will return to normal mode, TEM00. The normal operating temperature of all Wicked Laser products is 10ºC ~ 40ºC. Using your laser unit
beyond these parameters will damage your laser beyond repair.
3.
Types of Common Lens Problems Types of Common Lens Problems
Moisture - We do not recommend using any laser products
in highly humid or foggy conditions. If your laser unit is used
in these conditions and/or submerged in water, the beam
may appear similar to the above picture. You will not be able
to clean this as water has condensed inside the lens and/or
crystal set. This condition can be repaired by Wicked Lasers,
however, will not be covered in your warranty. A repair cost
will apply.
*This condition may occur if you are using the laser unit
with wet hands. Please dry your hands completely before
handling your laser unit.
