Automatic Shut-off
When no button on the measuring tool is pressed for approx. 120 minutes, the measuring tool automatically switches off to save the batteries.
To switch the measuring tool back on after automatic shut-off, you can either slide the On/Off switch 14 to position “Off” first and then switch the measuring tool back on, or press button 8.
Temporarily Deactivating Automatic Shut-Off
To deactivate automatic shut-off, hold down button 8 for at least 3 s with the measuring tool switched on. If automatic shut-off is deactivated, the laser lines will flash briefly as confirmation.
Note: If the operating temperature exceeds 113°F (45°C), automatic shut-off can no longer be deactivated.
After the next time the measuring tool is switched off and on, the automatic shut-off will be activated again.
Setting the operating mode
(see figures B1–F1)
The measuring tool has several operating modes between which you can switch at any time:
Cross-line and point operation: The
measuring tool generates a horizontal and a vertical laser line facing frontward, a vertical laser point facing upward and a vertical laser point facing downward.
The laser lines cross at a 90° angle.
Horizontal line operation: The measuring
tool generates a horizontal laser line facing frontward.
Vertical line operation: The measuring
tool generates a vertical laser line facing frontward.
If the measuring tool is positioned in the room, the vertical laser line is displayed on the ceiling beyond the upper laser point.
If the measuring tool is positioned directly against a wall, the vertical laser line generates an almost completely allround laser line (360° line).
-15-
Find Quality Products Online at: sales@GlobalTestSupply.com
www.GlobalTestSupply.com
Point operation: The measuring tool
generates a vertical laser point facing upward and a vertical laser point facing downward.
Use button 8 to switch between the individual operating modes, see table on page 24.
All modes except for point operation can be selected both with and without automatic leveling.
Receiver Mode
Receiver mode must be activated to work with the laser receiver 25, –regardless of which operating mode is selected–.
In receiver mode the laser lines flash at very high frequency, enabling them to be detected by the laser receiver 25.
To switch on receiver mode, press button 6. Indicator 7 will light up green.
When receiver mode is switched on, the laser lines are less visible to the human eye. For this reason, switch receiver mode off by pressing button 6 again to work without a laser receiver. Indicator 7 will extinguish.
Automatic Leveling
Working with Automatic Leveling (see figures B1–E1)
After switching on, the leveling function automatically compensates irregularities within the self-leveling range of ±4°. The measuring tool is leveled in as soon as the laser lines no longer flash.
If the automatic leveling function is not possible, e.g. because the surface on which the measuring tool stands deviates by more than 4° from the horizontal plane, the laser beams flash. In this case, bring the measuring tool to the level position and wait for the self­leveling to take place.
In case of ground vibrations or position changes during operation, the measuring tool is automatically leveled in again. To avoid errors by moving the measuring tool, check the position of the laser beams with regard to the reference points upon re-leveling.
Position the measuring tool on a level, firm support or attach it to the rotating mount 18.
For work with automatic leveling, slide the On/ Off switch 14 to position “On
If the measuring tool is outside of the self­leveling range, the laser lines and/or points will flash quickly.

Accuracy Check of the Laser Tool
Influences on Accuracy
The ambient temperature has the greatest influence. Especially temperature differences occurring from the ground upward can divert the laser beam.
Because the largest difference in temperature layers is close to the ground, the tool should always be mounted on a tripod when distances exceeding 65 ft (20 m). If possible, also set up the tool in the center of the work area.
Apart from exterior influences, device-specific influences (such as heavy impact or falling down) can lead to deviations. Therefore, check the accuracy of the tool each time before starting your work.
Firstly, check the leveling accuracy of the horizontal laser line and then the leveling accuracy of the vertical laser line.
Should the tool exceed the maximum deviation during one of the tests, please have it repaired by a Bosch after-sales service.

Checking the Height Accuracy
of the Horizontal Line
A free measuring distance of 16 ft (5 m) on a firm surface in front of two walls A and B is required for the check.
– Mount the tool onto a tripod, or place it on a firm and level surface close to the wall A. Switch the tool on. Select cross-line operation with automatic leveling.

be calculated as follows:
MAX = double the distance between the walls
d x 0.004 in/ft
Example: If the distance between the walls is 16 ft (5 m), the maximum deviation is
MAX = 2 x 16 ft x 0.004 in/ft = 1/8 in. The
d marks must therefore be maximum 1/8 in. apart.
Checking the Leveling Accuracy
of the Horizontal Line
For the check, a free surface of approx. 16 x 16 ft (5 x 5 m) is required.
– Set up the measuring tool on a firm, level
surface between both walls A and B. Allow the measuring tool to level in while in horizontal operation.
A
16 ft (5 m)
8 ft (2.5 m)
– At a distance of 8 ft (2.5 m) from the
measuring tool, mark the centre of the laser line (point I on wall A and point II on wall B) on both walls.
B
– Align the height of the measuring
tool (using a tripod or by underlaying, if required) in such a manner that the centre of the laser line is projected exactly against the previously marked point II on wall B.
– Mark the centre of the laser line as point
III (vertically above or below point I) on the wall A.
– The difference d of both marked points
I and III on wall A indicates the actual deviation of the measuring tool from the level plane.
The maximum permitted deviation dmax can be calculated as follows:
MAX = double the distance between the walls
d x 0.004 in/ft
Example: If the distance between the walls is 16 ft (5 m), the maximum deviation is
MAX = 2 x 16 ft x 0.004 in/ft = 1/8 in. The
d marks must therefore be maximum 1/8 in.
apart.
Checking the Leveling Accuracy
of the Vertical Line
For this check, a door opening is required with at least 8 ft (2.5 m) of space (on a firm surface) to each side of the door.
– Position the tool on a firm, level surface
(not on a tripod) 8 ft (2.5 m) away from the door opening. Allow the tool to level in while in vertical operation with automatic leveling, and direct the laser beam at the door opening.

Checking Plumb Accuracy
For this check, a free measuring distance of approx. 16 ft (5m) between floor and ceiling on a firm surface is required.
– Mount the measuring tool onto the rotating
mount and place it on the floor.
– Switch the measuring tool on and allow it to
level.
16 ft (5 m)
– Rotate the tool by 180° and position it on the other side of the door opening directly behind point II. Allow the tool to level in and align the vertical laser line in such a manner that its center runs exactly through points I and II.
– Mark the center of the laser line at the upper edge of the door opening as point IV.
– The difference d of both marked points III and IV results in the actual deviation of the tool to the plumb line.
– Measure the height of the door opening. The maximum admissible deviation is calculated as follows:
Repeat the measuring procedure for the second vertical laser plane. For this, select an operating mode in which a vertical laser plane is generated aside of the tool. Turn the tool 90° before beginning with the measuring procedure.
Doubled height of the door opening x 0.004 in/ft
Example: For a door-opening height of 6.5ft, the maximum deviation may be
2 x 6.5 ft x ±0.004 in/ft = ±1/16 in. Consequently, points III and IV may be no more than 1/16 in (max.) apart from each other.
– Mark the centre of the upper crossing point
on the ceiling (point I). Also mark the centre of the bottom laser point on the floor (point II).
d
180°
– Rotate the measuring tool 180°. Position it
so that the centre of the lower laser point is on the point II which has already been marked. Allow the measuring tool to level.
Mark the centre of the upper laser point
(point III).
– The difference d of both marked points I and
III on the ceiling results in the actual deviation of the measuring tool to the plumb line.
The maximum permitted deviation dmax can be calculated as follows:
MAX = double the distance between floor and
d ceiling x 0.009 in/ft
Example: If the distance from the floor to the ceiling is 5m, the maximum deviation is
MAX = 2 x 16 ft x 0.009 in/ft = 9/32 in. The
d marks must therefore be maximum 9/32 in. apart.

Working Advice
t For marking, always use only the center
of the laser point or the laser line. The
size of the laser point as well as the width of the laser line change with distance.
t The measuring tool is equipped with
a radio interface. Local operating restrictions, e.g. in airplanes or hospitals, are to be observed.
Working with the Tripod
(Accessory)
A tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable support surface for measuring. Place the measuring tool with the 1/4” tripod mount 12 on the thread of the tripod 27 or a conventional camera tripod. Tighten the measuring tool using the locking screw of the tripod.
Adjust the tripod roughly before switching on the measuring tool.
Fastening with the Universal Holder
(Accessory) (see figure G)
With the BM 1 positioning device 21, you can fasten the measuring tool, e.g., to vertical surfaces, pipes or magnetisable materials. The universal holder is also suitable for use as a ground tripod and makes the height adjustment of the measuring tool easier.
Adjust the BM 1 positioning device 21 roughly before switching on the measuring tool.
Working with the Laser Target Plate
(see figure G)
The laser target plate 24 increases the visibility of the laser beam under unfavourable conditions and at large distances.
The reflective part of the laser target plate 24 improves the visibility of the laser line. Thanks to the transparent part, the laser line is also visible from the back side of the laser target plate.
Laser Viewing Glasses
(Accessory)
The laser viewing glasses filter out ambient light. This enhances the laser visibility for the eye.
t %POPU VTFUIFMBTFSWJFXJOH HMBTTFTBT safety goggles. The laser viewing glasses
are used for improved visualization of the laser beam, but they do not protect against laser radiation.
t %POPUVTFUIF MBTFSWJFXJOHHMBTTFTBT sun glasses or in traffic. The laser
