Safety Instructions for Lasers
•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.
1
•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.
•Laser service MUST be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Repairs, service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may result in injury. To locate your nearest DEWALT service center call 1-800-4-DEWALT (1-800- 433-9258) or go to http://www.dewalt.com on the Internet.
•Do not use optical tools such as a telescope or transit to view the laser beam. Serious eye injury may result from staring at the beam.
•Do not place the laser in a position which may cause anyone to intentionally or unintentionally stare into the laser beam. Serious eye injury may result from staring at the beam. Whenever possible, laser beam should be well above or well below eye level.
•Do not position the laser near a reflective surface which may reflect the laser beam toward anyone’s eyes. 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.
•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. If labels are removed user or others may inadvertently expose themselves to laser radiation.
•Do not open the device by using tools, such as but not limited to, screwdrivers, etc.
•Always post a laser warning sign in work areas where lasers are located.

LASER MAINTENANCE
•Under some conditions, the lens of FIG. 9 the laser emitter and the receiver
may collect some dirt or debris. This will affect beam quality and operating range. The lens should be cleaned
with a cotton swab moistened with water as shown in Figure 9.
WARNING: DO NOT turn the LDM on while cleaning the lens. Serious eye injury may result from staring at the beam.
•The housing can be cleaned with a wet lint-free cloth such as a cotton cloth. USE WATER ONLY — DO NOT use cleansers or solvents. Allow the LDM to air dry before storing.
•To maintain the accuracy of your readings, perform control measurements periodically. Refer to Field Calibration
Check.
•If your LDM requires repair, contact your local DEWALT service center.
•When the LDM is not in use, store it in the pouch provided.
•Do not store your LDM in the pouch if it is wet. Dry exterior parts with a soft, dry cloth and allow the LDM to air dry.
•Do not store your LDM at temperatures below 20˚F (–7˚C) or above 160˚F (70˚C).
CAUTION: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the laser. These chemicals may
7
weaken the materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the unit; never immerse any part of the unit into a liquid. Never use compressed air to clean the laser.
Field Calibration Check
Measure a known distance [within a 10–30' (3–10 m) range] with the LDM to confirm that the LDM is functioning properly.
