High-precision cross-line laser with 8 super-bright laser lines,
plumb laser and additional slope function.
The 4 horizontal laser diodes project a homogeneous 360° laser line, the 4 vertical laser lines are aligned at right angles to one another. Special high-performance
laser diodes project extremely visible laser lines. Manual mode can be used to set
slopes by means of a motor. The laser cross at the top and the plumb laser allow
a plumb line to be drawn from the ceiling to the floor. Electronic positioning
motors controlled by temperature-stable sensors for automatic alignment,
2.5° self-levelling range. The pivoted housing can be turned with a vernier
adjustment mechanism and horizontal circle to permit exact positioning of laser
lines. Precision 1 mm/10 m. RX-Ready: The laser receiver, which is available as
an optional extra, can detect laser lines in a range of up to 50 m.
General safety instructions
Caution: Do not look directly into the beam. Lasers must be kept out of
Laser radiation!

the following: Regularly check the calibration before use, after transport and
after extended periods of storage. We also wish to point out that absolute
calibration is only possible in a specialist workshop. Calibration by yourself is
only approximate and the accuracy of the calibration will depend on the care
with which you proceed.
Note: This is a precision instrument which must be handled with care.
Avoid impacts and jarring. Store and transport the instrument in its case!
Turn off the unit when it is not in use! Clean with a soft cloth and glass
cleaner.
Warranty: The warranty period is 2 years from the date of purchase.
The warranty covers all material or manufacturing defects occurring during
this time. The following are excluded from warranty: Damage due
to improper use (e.g. operation with wrong type of current/voltage,
connection to unsuitable power source, fall onto hard surface, etc.) or
improper storage, normal wear and tear, and defects which only insignificantly impair the value or suitability for use. Any tampering by unauthorised
persons will render this warranty void. In the event that you need to claim
warranty, please take the complete device together with all information and
the invoice to one of our dealers or send it in to Umarex-Laserliner.

Battery (NiMH) charging
• Charge the batteries (NiMH) fully before using the laser unit. Insert only
rechargeable (i.e. secondary) batteries into the charging unit. Be sure that the
batteries are marked with the label „RECHARGEABLE“.
• Insert the rechargeable batteries into the charger and connect the charger to the
mains power supply. Observe the charger operating instructions. As soon as the
rechargeable batteries are charged up, disconnect the charger from the mains
power supply.
• Insert the rechargeable batteries (NiMH) into the laser unit. Do this by opening the
battery compartment (2) and inserting the batteries according to the symbols. If
the status indicator (13) flashes, the rechargeable batteries need to be replaced.
Attention: Only insert rechargeable batteries into the charger – risk of
explosion! Used batteries must not be disposed of with regular domestic
waste; instead, they can be deposited at a collection point for batteries or
hazardous waste.
Setting up
• Press the „ON/OFF“ switch (14).
• The automatic sensor aligns the device without any need for
operator intervention. To accomplish this, two electronic sensors
are used to detect the X and Y axes. The working angle ist ±
2,5°. During the set-up phase, the auto LED (15) flashes rapidly.
When levelling is complete, the auto LED lights up continuously.
• Switch the lasers on using the H slope, V1 or V2 buttons (press
briefly). Maximum visibility of the laser line is obtained when
hand receiver mode is switched off (button 11, indicator
light 10 off).
Note: If the unit is placed at an excessive angle (out of its 2,5° range),
the lasers will blink. If this should be the case, align the unit roughly with
the levelling feet (7) or place it on a more level surface.
L

The automatic sensor continuously levels the devices, even if they are in motion.
This makes device alignment easier, as it enables the laser to be set to a
required height by means of a crank tripod or a wall bracket, for example.
It also means that the laser can be used on vibrating surfaces and in windy
conditions. IMPORTANT: Precision is adversely affected during the set-up phase.

Manual Slope function
This function deactivates the automatic sensor, which enables slopes to be
set. Press the H slope button and hold it down for 3 seconds until the auto
LED starts to flash very rapidly. The V1, V2 buttons are used to re-adjust the
slope by means of a motor. The H slope button (pressed briefly) is used to
switch over between axes. IMPORTANT: Since the automatic sensor is not
active, horizontal and/or

Manual re-adjustment:
Steeper slopes can be set using the angle plate, which is available as an
optional extra (product ref. 080.75). To this end you need to use a crank
tripod, such as the 300 cm professional crank tripod, product ref. 080.34.
TIP: Allow the device to align itself automatically and set the angle plate to
the zero position. Next, deactivate the automatic sensor by pressing the H
slope button (and holding for 3 seconds). Finally, incline the device to the
angle you require.

Positioning laser lines
The top section of the laser unit can be turned on the plinth to align the
lasers approximately. The vernier adjustment mechanism (4) can be used to
position the lasers precisely. The freely rotatable horizontal circle (3) makes
it easy to turn the device to the required angle. Simply set the scale to zero,
then rotate the device to the angle you want.

Preparing the calibration check:
It is possible for you to check the calibration of the laser. To do this, position
the device midway between 2 walls, which must be at least 5 metres apart.
Switch the device on (Laser cross ON). The best calibration results are achieved if the device is mounted on a tripod. 1. Mark point A1 on the wall.

Note: If points A2 and A3 are more than 2 mm / 10 m, the device is in

L
Checking the vertical line: Position the device about 5 m from a wall. Fix a
plumb bob with a line of 2.5 m length on the wall, making sure that the bob
can swing freely. Switch on the device and align the vertical laser to the plumb
line. The precision is within the specified tolerance if the deviation between the
laser line and the plumb line is not greater than ± 1.5 mm.
Checking the horizontal line:
Position the device about 5 m from a wall and
switch on the cross laser. Mark point B on the wall.
Turn the laser cross approx. 2.5 m to the right and
mark point C. Check whether the horizontal line
from point C is level with point B to within ± 2 mm. Repeat the process by
turning the laser to the left.

Working with the laser receiver RX (optional):
For levelling over longer distances or in conditions of bright light, use the
laser receiver RX. Switch on with button D; control lamp A will light up.
IMPORTANT: Set the laser unit to hand receiver mode (button 11).
The laser lines now pulsate at a high frequency (5 kHz) and become darker.
The pulsation allows the laser receiver to detect the laser lines.
Now move the receiver field (F) of the laser receiver through the laser lines
upwards and downwards (horizontal laser line) and/or sideways (vertical laser
line) until the centre LED (G) lights up. Now mark the horizontal and/or
vertical reference dimension.
Adjust the sensitivity of the laser receiver with button B.
The sound can be switched on or off with button E.

Note: The light intensity of the laser lines is greatest at their midpoints and
less toward their ends. Therefore at line ends the distance range for the
laser receiver is reduced somewhat. An even distribution of brightness can
be achieved by switching on all 4 horizontal laser lines. When this is done
the maximum range for laser reception is remains constant.

Universal mount (optional):
The laser receiver RX can be fitted on measuring
staffs with the universal mount. The Flexi measuring
staff (Art. No. 080.50) is always recommended when
measuring from floor heights. It also allows you
to determine heights directly without any need for
calculation.
