* Always make sure the material you are using is safe to use. There is an especially high risk when engraving plastics. Fumes from plastics can be toxic. Make sure you find the specific material you are using and check to see if it produces toxic fumes when burned. Never attempt to engrave PVC as it produces chlorine gas (the stuff they used in WWI).
* Once the laser is focused do not touch the button that raises the bed or the laser will crash into the machine which causes damage to the machine.
* Be careful when moving the laser head when using the rotary tool because it has protruding parts that will harm the laser cutter if a crash occurs.
* Keep an eye on active cuts because fires can be started when cutting wood or acrylic with paper covering.
