HOW TO USE:

APLICACIONES:

- Trazado de techos y ensamblaje

- Proyectos con tabla de yeso

- Escaleras, pasamanos y accesos ADA

- Desagües, tubería, y vertientes de drenaje

- Tableros y paisajismo

- Be sure to read all instructions before using your IRWIN Electronic Level.

- This level can be used both indoors and outdoors for horizontal, vertical, and angled
alignments.

- Two (2) “AAA” alkaline batteries (included) are needed for operation.

BUTTON FUNCTIONS:

Power Button

Press the power button to turn on display and backlight. Light will automatically turn off after
20 seconds. Push again to turn backlight on as needed. Press and hold the button to turn

display off. The display will automatically turn off after 3 minutes of inactivity to save
battery life.

Audio Button

Push audio button to hear beep when level or plumb. The speaker icon will show in display if
audio is turned on.

REF

Second Reference/False Zero: To set a second reference angle or false zero, press the REF
button. The display will change to “0.0” and the “S” (for second reference) will show in display.

To reset, press the REF button again.

Calibration:

Follow these steps to recalibrate the level:

(1) Press and hold the REF button before turning the unit ON.
(2) Turn the unit on and the word “CAL” will appear in the display.
(3) Release the REF button and place the level on a known level surface.
(4) Press the REF button again and “CAL1” will show on the display.
(5) Once the measurement displays, rotate the level 180° end-to-end.
(6) Press the REF button again and “CAL2” will briefly show on the display.

The level is now calibrated and ready for use. If the display reads “Err” after this
procedure, the reference surface used was not level and the procedure should be
repeated from the beginning using a different reference surface.

Note:

We recommend checking calibration after a fall or any significant temperature
change (+/- 20°F) since the previous calibration.

Press the HOLD button to hold or release the current display. “H” will show in display if
display is on hold to temporarily record measured angle. Press the HOLD button again to
return to normal operation.

Press the UNIT button to switch between the available display units: degrees (°), slope (%),
pitch (IN/FT), pitch (mm/m). For the IN/FT unit setting, the “+” or “-” indicators provide
additional accuracy to the display reading, which is in 1/8th increments. The “+” indicates to
add 1/24th to the display reading and the “-” indicates to subtract 1/24th from the display
reading. For example, if the reading is “5/8+ IN/FT”, the actual measurement is 16/24th. If
the reading is “5/8- IN/FT”, the actual measurement is 14/24th. If the reading is “5/8 IN/FT”,
it is exactly 5/8th or 15/24th.
