WARNINGS

To ensure safe operation and service of the instrument, follow these instructions.
Failure to observe these warnings can result in serious personal injury, re, or
electrical shock. Retain these instructions for future reference.

WARNING: LASER RADIATION. DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM. Class II Laser.

• Exposing eyes to laser radiation can result in severe and permanent eye injuries.

NEVER look directly into the laser beam emitted by this instrument.

• Do not use the instrument if it appears to be damaged.

• Do not modify the instrument in any way, as to do so could result in emission of
hazardous laser radiation than could result in severe eye injuries .

• Do not use optical equipment such as lenses, prisms, optical scopes, etc. to
transmit, retransmit, or view the laser beam as this could result in severe eye
injuries.

• This product should not be used by untrained operators or operators who have
not read and fully understood the instructions.

• This product should not be used in any location that could result in somebody
looking at or having their eyes inadvertently irradiated by the laser beam as this
could result in severe eye injuries.

• The instrument should be powered off following use to minimize the risks of
inadvertently exposure to hazardous laser radiation that could result in severe eye
injuries.

• Do not remove warning labels from this instrument as this could result in serious
personal injury and increases the risk of exposure to hazardous laser irradiation.

• The instrument should be securely located in a tidy work environment prior to
operation as unexpected drops or movement of the instrument may result in
damage to the instrument and increases the risk of inadvertent exposure to laser
radiation that could result in severe eye injuries.

• This instrument is IP54 dust & water resistant. Following any contact with water,
thoroughly dry the instrument with a dry, lint-free cloth.

• There are no user serviceable parts in this instrument.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

TURNING LASER BEAMS ON/OFF

Push the ON/OFF buttons for the horizontal line 1, vertical line 2, and plumb
spot 3 (93LCLS model only) to turn ON and OFF their respective laser lines. These
buttons are only active once the Pendulum Lock/Unlock Slider Switch 6 has
been set to the Unlocked position. If the Pendulum Slider Switch is moved from the
Unlocked to the Locked position while the laser beams are active, they will be turned
OFF. The different laser lines can be operated independently or simultaneously.

NOTE: The plumb spot application projects laser beams both in upward and downward
directions. The downward beam may be used to locate a specific point on a floor
layout while the upward beam projects that same point to a ceiling.

PENDULUM SLIDER SWITCH & SELF-LEVELING

The laser assemblies are mounted on a pendulum so that the instrument can self-level.
The Pendulum Slider Switch

6

must be in the unlocked position for the instrument

to self-level. If the instrument is tilted by >4° from the horizontal plane, the pendulum
will not be capable of self-leveling; the active laser beams will flash and the Excessive
Tilt Indicator

5

will blink to indicate that the instrument is not level and cannot
self-level. The instrument must be repositioned on a more level geometry for the self­Leveling pendulum to function appropriately.

Horizontal Laser Line Vertical Laser Line Plumb Laser Line

NOTE: If the instrument indicates that it is not

level (via flashing beams and/or a blinking
Excessive Tilt indicator

5),

then it should not

be used for laying out level or plumb lines.
NOTE: Following use, the active laser beams

must be turned OFF and the Pendulum Slider
Switch must be placed in the Locked position
prior to storage.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

MAGNETIC MOUNTING BRACKET

14

The instrument is attached to a magnetic mounting bracket. The bracket may be
magnetically attached to any magnetic structure such as steel studs, ducts, structural
beams, and steel doors. The bracket also features a key-hole for mounting the
instrument using a screw or nail to non-magnetic structures. Once mounted to a
structure via the mounting bracket the instrument can be rotated on the bracket
through 360° to direct the laser beams.

CLAMP-ON WALL ADAPTER

16

The clamp-on wall adapter may be clamped to a structural beam, or wall bracket for
suspended ceiling installations, to present a steel surface onto which the instrument's
magnetic mounting bracket may be attached. Once magnetically attached the
instrument may be positioned to deliver the laser line at the required location. The
clamp-on adapter also features a key-hole for mounting the instrument using a screw
or nail.
