wavelength band. Since direct or diuse laser radiation can
inict severe corneal injuries, always wear eye protection when in
the same area as an exposed laser beam. Do not allow the laser beam
to contact a person. CO

capable of seriously burning human tissue.
Always be aware of the beam’s path and always use a beam block

“quick mark” mode, the Launcher window closes as soon as the mark
is complete. To view cycle time information, click WinMark’s Mark

Press the Mark Current File on Canvas button. The mark le you created is downloaded to the FH
Flyer head and the laser res the mark immediately.
