For the purpose of engraving or cutting with a laser engraving machine, allow the workpiece to be exposed to the high-density laser beam emitted by the laser engraving machine. The workpiece may be subject to gasification without combustion as it is pretty hot on the surface. On the other hand, most workpieces are essentially combustible, which may be ignited, leading to open flames and consequently to machine breakdown and environmental contamination.

1. It is prohibited to store the machine in areas close to combustible and explosive substances, volatile solvents or sources of heat. Instead, store it in a well-ventilated, cool, and dust-free place;
2. Make sure that only the specific attached power cord rather than other similar power cords are used during installation;
3. Clean the tripod and laser module with a dry cloth regularly when the power is off.
4. Ensure to run the laser at 0°C-35°C. Operation at sub-zero temperature is prohibited; It is prohibited to run the machine in a wet environment or in thunderstorm weather;
5. Switch off the machine if it is offline for an extended period of time, and unplug the power cord;
6. It is prohibited to come in contact with electronic areas with hands or other tools when the machine is connected to a power supply;
7. Touching any moving parts and laser module while the machine is running is prohibited;
8. Before engraving, place a flat object that cannot be penetrated by the laser, such as an aluminum alloy or stainless steel plate on the workbench, and then place processing material.
9. Wear goggles to prevent vision damage arising from exposure to the laser spot during laser engraving operation;
10. It is advisable to run the machine under well-ventilated conditions as laser engraving may generate a small amount of fume or gas;
11. Children under 10 years old are not allowed to run the machine without an adult presence, which otherwise may lead to personal injury;
12. Put in place fire extinguishers in case of use, which shall be regularly checked. It is prohibited to keep the machine unattended while it is running；
