Maintenance
8.1 Maintenance during operation
The bar code scanner functions maintenance free. Maintenance is not required to ensure
compliance with the bar code scanner's laser class 2.
Important Do not open the bar code scanner's housing. If the device is opened, the SICK AG warranty
shall not apply.
8.2 Cleaning the bar code scanner
Recommendation In order to make use of the full optical reading capacity of the bar code scanner, the reading
window should be checked regularly (e. g. weekly) for soiling. This is especially recommended
when operating the device in harsh conditions (dust, abrasion, humidity, finger prints,
etc.).
Damage to the eyes through laser radiation!
The bar code scanner works with an red light laser of class 2. Looking at the laser's light
path for a longer period of time can damage the eye's retina.
The entire reading window is the LED radiation outlet opening.
Caution - use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiaton exposure.
Never look directly into the light path (similar to sun light).
Never direct the device's laser beam at the eyes of persons.
When installing and aligning the bar code scanner, avoid laser beam reflections from
reflective surfaces.
Do not open the housing. (Opening does not interrupt the activation of the laser diode
by the reading pulsing.)
Always observe the latest valid version of laser protection regulations.
