Thank you for purchasing the FDG-232R red beam, laser level kit.

These instructions are intended to explain the quick basics to operating this

equipment. If you need any more information, or the unit requires calibration

or repair, then please contact our Service Dept on tel [phone] or

fax [phone]. Email: [e-mail] We are here to help.

Power source:

The FDG-232R accepts 4pc x type AA rechargeable or alkaline (supplied)

batteries. Ensure correct polarity when fitting. Rechargeable batteries have to

be charged outside the laser instrument. There is no provision for charging

within the laser.

Positioning the Laser:

Mount the FDG-232R on a generally level, firm surface or a 1/4” threaded

laser accessory eg. a Floor to Ceiling Pillar or Tripod. You may need to use an

adapter. To operate correctly, this surface must be within +/-4 deg of true

horizontal.

If the laser alarms (ie. beeps every second), then it is outside its levelling

range.

1

Reposition it & try again.

Principle of Operation:

The instrument has a fully automatic pendulum system to set true level.

(A slide switch / transit latch locks the pendulum when not in use.)

IF THE FDG-232R EMITS CONTINUOUS RED LASER LINES & DOTS,

THEN THEY WILL ALL BE TRUE LEVEL & PLUMB.

This laser can be used Indoors or Outdoors, where it is waterproof to IP54.

Controls:

A simple ON/OFF switch combined with a black transit latch is located on the

side of the case. Position laser as described above. Switch fully ON to position

2.

The cross lines and all five dots will illuminate. They are self-levelled.

The red button (marked with a cross) on the keypad enables the User to

scroll through 5 functions of beam pattern, depending on requirements.

Intermediate position 1 is for Manual operation ie. NOT self-levelled. Take

care!

To switch OFF, slide the transit latch fully across to the OFF position.

*PULSE Button:

See details below in the "How to use the Detector" section.

Working Range:

Up to 10m, depending on ambient lighting conditions and generally up to 30m

with an optional FD-9R detector.

To set Squaring:

The EK-268G has a squaring facility to set-out 90 degrees.

Switch on the five laser dots and mark out accordingly.

To set Plumb:

Again, switch on the five laser dots. The red dot on the ceiling is true plumb

with the red DOT below the instrument. This is an electronic equivalent of a

plumb string line - a very convenient & useful feature.
