1. Beam Position: Rotates the beam clockwise or anti-clockwise when
the laser head is set to a stationary dot or is in scan mode.
2. Auto/Manual: Toggles the laser between auto leveling mode and
manual mode (for set-up of manual slopes).
3. Power (ON/OFF): Switches the unit on or off.
4. Manual Grade: Drives a manual grade into the laser head when the
unit is in manual mode. (see 3.7)
5. Beam Scan: Puts the beam into scan mode and is used to cycle
through the preset scan angles (0°, 10°, 45°, 90°, 180°, 0°).
6. Rotation Speed: Puts the beam into rotation mode and is used to
cycle through the preset rotation speeds (0, 60, 120, 300, 600, 0 rpm).
(Note: When using a receiver use 600rpm)
7. Anti-Drift: Activates the anti-drift system (see 3.6).

3.1 Horizontal Leveling:
• Place the Polar on the floor, countertop or mount it to a tripod or wallmount
- suggest a flat head tripod is used.
• Press the power button and allow up to 60 seconds for the unit to level.
While leveling, the laser beam will flash. Once it has finished leveling it will
stop flashing and the beam will begin to rotate.
• The laser beam and auto/manual LED will flash if the instrument is set up
outside its self-leveling range of ±5°.
3.2 Vertical Leveling:
• Place the Polar on the floor or countertop using the built in trivet points or
alternatively mount to a vertical mount (B-WM) and attach to a tripod.
• Press the power button and allow up to 60 seconds for the unit to level.
While leveling, the laser beam will flash. Once it has finished leveling it will
stop flashing and the beam will begin to rotate.
• The laser beam and auto/manual LED will flash if the instrument is set up
outside its self-leveling range of ±5°.
