WARNING: Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed

below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Safety Instructions

• Do not operate the laser in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust.

• Use the laser only with the specifically designated batteries. Use of any other batteries may
create a risk of fire.

• Store idle laser out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Lasers are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.

• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one laser, may create a risk of injury when used on
another laser.

• Do not use optical tools such as a telescope or transit to view the laser beam. Serious eye
injury could result.

• Do not place the laser in a position which may cause anyone to intentionally or
unintentionally stare into the laser beam. Serious eye injury could result

• Turn the laser off when it is not in use. Leaving the laser on increases the risk of staring into
the laser beam.

• Repairs and servicing MUST be performed by a qualified repair facility. Repairs performed
by unqualified personnel could result in serious injury.

• WARNING: DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE LASER. There are no user serviceable
parts inside. Disassembling the Laser will void all warranties on the product. Do not modify
the product in any way Modifying the tool may result in Hazardous Laser Radiation
Exposure.

• Do not operate the laser around children or allow children to operate the laser. Serious eye
injury may result.

• Do not remove or deface warning labels. Removing labels increases the risk of exposure to
radiation.

• Position the laser securely. Damage to the laser or serious injury could result if the laser
falls.

• CAUTION: Use caution when drilling, nailing or cutting into walls, floors and ceilings
which may contain electrical wiring or pipes. These items may be detected by the Bullseye
Stud Finder in the same manner in which studs are detected. Because studs are normally
spaced 16 inches or 24 inches apart and are 1-1/2 inches wide, beware of anything closer
together or of a different width. Always turn off the power when working near electrical

wires.

CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than

those specified in this manual may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.

The label on your tool may include the following symbols.

V ..........................volts mW......................milliwatts

AVERTISSEMENT : lire, comprendre et suivre toutes les directives précisées ci-dessous,
y compris les consignes de sécurité, afin d’éviter les risques de choc électrique, d’incendie
ou de blessure grave.

CONSERVER CES DIRECTIVES

Consignes de sécurité concernant

• Ne pas utiliser le laser dans une atmosphère explosive, comme en présence de liquide, de
gaz ou de poussière inflammable.

• N’utiliser que des piles spécialement conçues pour les lasers; l’usage de tout autre type de
pile pourrait entraîner des risques d’incendie.

• Lorsqu’on n’utilise pas le laser, le ranger hors de la portée des enfants ou des personnes
non qualifiées; les lasers sont dangereux entre les mains de personnes inexpérimentées.

• N’utiliser que les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant pour le modèle concerné; un
accessoire destiné à un outil particulier peut devenir dangereux lorsqu’il est utilisé avec un
autre.

• Ne pas utiliser un dispositif optique, tel qu’un téléscope ou une lunette de passage, pour
examiner le faisceau laser afin d’éviter de causer des blessures graves aux yeux.

• Ne pas mettre le laser dans une position qui pourrait encourager une personne à regarder
directement le faisceau laser, volontairement ou involontairement, car cela pourrait causer
des blessures graves aux yeux.

• Mettre le laser hors tension après chaque utilisation, car un laser laissé sous tension
encourage une personne à regarder directement le faisceau laser.

• La réparation et l’entretien DOIVENT être effectués dans un centre de service autorisé ou
par du personnel qualifié; toute opération d’entretien ou de réparation effectuée par une
personne non qualifiée pourrait entraîner des blessures graves.

• AVERTISSEMENT! NE PAS DÉMONTER LE LASER. L’outil ne comprend aucune pièce
interne destinée à être entretenue par l’utilisateur. Le fait de démonter le laser annulera toute
garantie couvrant ce produit; on ne doit jamais modifier ce dernier de quelque manière que
ce soit afin d’éviter d’entraîner des risques d’exposition aux rayonnements.

• Ne pas utiliser le laser en présence d’un enfant, ni autoriser les enfants à utiliser le laser afin
d’éviter de causer des blessures graves aux yeux.

MISE EN GARDE : on doit faire particulièrement attention lorsqu’on perce un trou, qu’on
enfonce un clou ou qu’on effectue une coupe dans un mur, un plancher ou un plafond
pouvant camoufler des fils électriques ou des tuyaux. L’outil peut détecter ces éléments tout
comme il détecte les montants. Il faut tenir compte du fait que l’espace entre les montants
varie généralement entre 40 et 60 cm (16 et 24 po), et que ceux-ci mesurent près de 4 cm (1
1/2 po) de largeur; si l’outil détecte des éléments dont les mesures sont différentes, il ne
s’agit peut-être pas de montants. On doit toujours couper le courant lorsqu’on travaille à

proximité de fils électriques.

• Ne pas retirer ni abîmer les étiquettes d’avertissement; le fait de retirer les étiquettes
augmentera les risques d’exposition aux rayonnements laser.

• S’assurer de bien déposer le laser sur une surface de niveau afin de l’empêcher de tomber
et de s’endommager ou de blesser l’utilisateur.

MISE EN GARDE : le fait d’utiliser des commandes, d’effectuer des réglages ou de suivre
des procédures autres que celles décrites aux présentes pourrait entraîner des risques
d’exposition aux rayonnements.

L’étiquette apposée sur l’outil peut afficher les symboles suivants :

V......................................volts mW......................milliwatts

nm ..................................longueur d’onde exprimée en nanomètres

IIIa ..................................laser de classe IIIa

Pour votre commodité et votre sécurité, les étiquettes suivantes sont apposées sur le laser.

INSTALLATION DE LA PILE

Retirer le couvercle du compartiment de la pile (5) en appuyant sur le centre, tel qu’illustré à
la figure 2, et en le tirant vers l’arrière. Insérer une pile complètement chargée de 9 volts, en
s’assurant d’aligner les symboles des bornes positives (« + ») et négatives (« - »). Remettre
le couvercle sur le compartiment de la pile.

Installing the Battery

Ensure laser on/off switch is in the full off position. Remove the battery compartment cover (5)
by pressing down in the center of the cover as shown in Fig. 2 and pulling back. Insert a fresh 9
volt battery making sure to match (+) and (-) terminals correctly. Replace the battery
compartment cover.

Operating Instructions

STUD FINDER

Stud Scan Mode: (Finds metal or wood studs through up to 3/4” drywall.) Place unit flat
against wall as shown in Figure 3. Press in on the stud finder ON/OFF button (3) and hold for
normal Stud Scan mode. The bottom red LED (4) will light and the unit will beep once while it is
calibrating. Slide unit slowly, Figure 4, horizontally across surface of wall without lifting or tilting.
When the first red LED lights, slow down and keep sliding until the top green LED is lit and
beep sounds as shown in Figure 5. This is the stud edge. Mark this spot (through the central
hole of the marking insert). Keep moving past mark until lights go out. Continue holding button
and reverse direction. Mark other stud edge. Center of stud is between two marks.

LASER

Place unit flat against wall as shown in Figure 3. Push up on the laser on/off button (2) to
activate the self-leveling laser lines. To hang the unit on the wall, push pin (1c) through marking
insert into drywall as shown in Figure 6. When pressing pin into drywall, make sure it is straight
and seated firmly in the marking insert and that the unit is secure on the wall.

CAUTION: Pin is sharp and should be handled with care. NOTE: The drywall pin can only
be used with the marking insert (1), and is only for drywall, NOT other surfaces including
plaster. For surfaces other than drywall, the (key hole) hanging insert (1a) can be used with a
standard screw or nail in a predrilled hole. Make sure it is straight and seated firmly in the insert
and that the unit is secure on the wall. The drywall pin should always be pushed in by hand and
never driven by a hammer. To remove the insert, push it out from the front side of the unit.

Figure 7 illustrates a typical application for the Bullseye Laser Level when it is wall mounted.
When visibility is poor or when using laser outdoors, use the marking cone to enhance the

laser line as shown in Figure 8. To extend the line, use the spacer insert (1b) which is shown in
Figure 9. NOTE: Because the spacer insert keeps the unit farther from the wall, the stud
sensor can not be used when using the spacer insert.

DANGER: Laser Radiation, avoid direct eye exposure.

Helpful Hints

• If the laser light becomes dim or is no longer visible when the switch is in the on position
check or change the battery.

• The laser lines are only level on the wall against which the unit is held or hung. The short line
visible on any adjacent wall is not level.

• The laser unit is a wall use tool only and only generates level lines when held against a
vertical surface.

• The laser unit is equipped with a self leveling pendulum lock that stops pendulum motion
when the laser on/off switch is moved to the off position.

• If the laser on/off switch is pushed part way to the on position, the laser lines may be on
while the pendulum lock is still engaged.

Storage

Always store the Bullseye Laser Level and Stud Finder indoors and in its protective case.

Maintenance

Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool;
never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and
adjustment (other than those listed in this manual) should be performed by authorized service
centers or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement parts.

stud.

Solution

• Replace with fresh battery.

• Start again moving farther to either
side.

• Be sure laser on/off switch is in the
full on position.

Problem

• LEDs do not light.

• Because studs are normally
spaced 16 inches or 24 inches
apart and are 1-1/2 inches wide,
beware of anything closer together
or of a different width.

• LEDs light in too many
places.

• Detects other objects
besides studs.

• Be sure that the unit is as straight
up and down as possible.

• Laser does not project on
wall.

• The self leveling range
of the unit is +/-5 degrees,
if the unit is not held
within 5 degrees of
vertical, the laser lines
will not project on wall.

• Laser projects on wall
but lines are not level.

• Wall on which the unit is
mounted or held must be
within +/- 5 degrees of
vertical for the self
leveling mechanism to
function correctly. If this is
exceeded, the lines will
still project but may not
be level.

• Use the unit against vertical walls
only, lines will not be level on sloped
walls or other non-vertical surfaces.
