Manufacturer instructions, training and site-specific makerspace rules override Beam Boundary. A record is a starting-test observation, never a guarantee of safe or successful operation.
- Verify every material, coating, adhesive and backing.
- Do not process PVC, vinyl, chlorinated or unknown material.
- Keep enclosure/interlocks, eye protection, exhaust and fire controls exactly as required.
- Never leave an operating laser unattended.
- Never disable safety systems or continue through sustained flame, hazardous fumes or machine faults.
- Do not average records, convert percentages or extrapolate between machines.
Emergency response belongs to the exact machine manual and local emergency services—not this website.
