SET UP
OPERATION
Select a place as close as practical
to the work site. Ensure the location is
clear of traffic.
Place the laser on a level surface such
as a bench or mount.
To turn the instrument on, turn the power
switch to the “on” position. Self levelling
will commence and the horizontal beam
will activate.
If the instrument is outside the self
levelling range the instrument will not level
causing the laser beam to flash on and off
repeatedly. If this occurs, reposition the
instrument onto a level surface until the
instrument can level off.
Press the V (vertical lines) and H
(horizontal line) buttons on the control
panel to cycle through the active beams.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
This is a precision measuring instrument
and should always be handled with care and
transported within the carry case provided.
Always turn the unit off before transporting
the instrument or moving around the job
site.
Reflective surfaces such as glass may
reflect the laser beam, causing two beams
to strike the detector at the same time. This
may result in inaccurate reference points.
Whenever possible, store the instrument
in a dry, shady location.
Calibration of the instrument is
recommended: every six months, if ongoing
accurate levelling is required, or an impact
has occurred.
The operator should check the accuracy
of the instrument before precision levelling
is attempted. Failure to do so may result
in inaccurate measurements.
Clean the instrument with a dry, soft
cloth after use in dusty, damp or wet
conditions before storing.
Smudges and fingerprints may be
removed with a damp tissue or a soft, lint-
free cloth.
