Chapter 4: Safety Precautions
• The laser scanner must be turned off during transportation or shipping in a
transport case.
• Remove the battery from the laser scanner before shipping.
• When carrying the laser scanner, take care not to drop it. Strong impact can
damage the laser scanner and render it incapable of proper operation.
• Carry the laser scanner separately from its equipment or, for best
protection, use the original transport case.
• When shipping and transporting the laser scanner by rail, sea, air, or in a
road vehicle, make sure to use its original transport case and a suitable
outer cardboard box for best protection against shock and vibration.
• The FARO batteries are lithium-ion batteries and are thus classified as
dangerous goods. When transporting or shipping the FARO batteries,
ensure that you observe all applicable local and international rules and
regulations. For further information, contact your local forwarder before
transportation or shipping.
• For lithium-ion batteries with less than 100 Wh energy content, an
exemption is provided that allows you to carry such a battery without further
paperwork. The maximum battery energy a single person can carry is 200
Wh.
4.8 Storage
Prior to storing the laser scanner for a longer time:
• remove the battery.
• pack the scanner and the battery in its shipping case to protect it from
environmental hazards, dust, and dirt.
• Store all components in an environment where
• the humidity level is low,
• the temperature is relatively stable,
• they will not be subject to extreme temperatures, environmental
conditions, or heavy vibrations.
4.9 Servicing
Servicing and repair must only be done by qualified service personnel
authorized by FARO. Unplug this product from the power outlet, remove the
battery and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
• The power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
• The product has been exposed to rain, water, or other liquids.
NOTE: Make sure that the total energy content of all batteries that
you (as a single person) carry is less than 200 Wh and that no
single battery has more than 100 Wh energy content.
