Laser Handling Precautions
The optical laser system employed by this photocopier is completely sealed b
y
a protective housing and an external cover. Therefore, the laser beam will n
ot
stray or leak during photocopying operation.
However, when servicing the photocopier, take the following precautions:
1. Do not insert any screwdrivers or other tools that have high reflective
properties into the laser's path.
.
2. Before servicing the photocopier, remove watches, rings, or other metallic
objects that you may be wearing. (This is to avoid the danger of the lase
r
striking the eye by reflecting off the metallic objects being worn.)
Since the laser beam cannot be seen with the naked eye, for maximum
safety, please follow the above precautions.
