    I don't know the product but I have worked for a medical laser company. The only hazard you should have would be if you could turn it on. CO2 and NdYAG can burn and blind you. HeNe cannot. Other than the non-visible energy they produce, there is nothing hazardous in there.

    There should be a decent amount of stainless steel.

    Better than scrap value would be the optics.

    Electronics should include digital control boards and high voltage power supply.
