Safety Directions
During the transport, shipping or disposal of batteries it is possible for inappropriate mechanical influences
to constitute a fire hazard.
Precautions:
Before shipping the product or disposing of it, discharge the batteries by running the product until they
are flat.
When transporting or shipping batteries, the person in charge of the product must ensure that the appli-
cable national and international rules and regulations are observed. Before transportation or shipping
contact your local passenger or freight transport company.
High mechanical stress, high ambient temperatures or immersion into fluids can cause leakage, fire or
explosions of the batteries.
Precautions:
Protect the batteries from mechanical influences and high ambient temperatures. Do not drop or immerse
batteries into fluids.
If battery terminals are short circuited e.g. by coming in contact with jewellery, keys, metalized paper or
other metals, the battery can overheat and cause injury or fire, for example by storing or transporting in
pockets.
Precautions:
Make sure that the battery terminals do not come into contact with metallic objects.
If the product is improperly disposed of, the following can happen:
• If polymer parts are burnt, poisonous gases are produced which may impair health.
• If batteries are damaged or are heated strongly, they can explode and cause poisoning, burning, corro-
sion or environmental contamination.
• By disposing of the product irresponsibly you may enable unauthorised persons to use it in contraven-
tion of the regulations, exposing themselves and third parties to the risk of severe injury and rendering
the environment liable to contamination.
Precautions:
The product must not be disposed with household waste.
Dispose of the product appropriately in accordance with the national regulations in
force in your country.
Always prevent access to the product by unauthorised personnel.
Product-specific treatment and waste management information can be downloaded from the GeoMax
website at http://www.geomax-positioning.com/treatment or received from your GeoMax distributor.
Only GeoMax authorised service workshops are entitled to repair these products.
The following chapters provide instructions and training information about laser safety according to inter-
national standard IEC 60825-1 (2014-05) and technical report IEC TR 60825-14 (2004-02). The informa-
tion enables the person responsible for the product and the person who actually uses the equipment, to
anticipate and avoid operational hazards.

According to IEC TR 60825-14 (2004-02), products classified as laser class 1, class 2 and class 3R
do not require:
• laser safety officer involvement,
• protective clothes and eyewear,
• special warning signs in the laser working area
if used and operated as defined in this User Manual due to the low eye hazard level.

National laws and local regulations could impose more stringent instructions for the safe use of
lasers than IEC 60825-1 (2014-05) and IEC TR 60825-14 (2004-02).
