• Never remove any of the covering or components of the AP-8586
Diode Laser. If the laser is defective, return the defective laser
immediately to PASCO scientific.
• Although laser protective eyewear is not typically required for class I
lasers, if you are uncomfortable or unsure about working around
lasers, wear protective laser goggles or spectacles.
About Laser Protective Eyewear
The eyewear must be designed for use with lasers and meet OSHA
standards specific to the type and class of laser you are using. You can
tell if the type of goggle or spectacle you are using meets laser
standards by looking at the insignia on the side of the frame. Any type
of plastic chemical protective goggle will not suffice. Also, you need
to select protective eyewear with the correct filter for the wavelength
range of the laser (For the Laser Diode, you need a 660-680 nm filter.)
Example: Laser goggles designed to protect for Class I lasers do not
provide maximum protection when using Class II lasers. For more
information, see the OSHA web site (www.osha.gov).
