How to use your Roteo

The wall mount and the metal head protection can both be removed from the laser, if you wish to work without these attachments.
Horizontal Setup
The laser can be mounted on a 5/8"-11 tripod or placed directly on a solid, stable surface. Roteo 20/35 can be suspended from a ceiling grid using the wall mount (see later section).
Vertical Setup
The laser can be mounted on a 5/8"-11 tripod or placed directly on its back (opposite the handle) on a solid,

Roteo 20HV/25H/35/35G - 1.2.0en
stable surface. For more stability, it is recommended to use the wall mount. Use the support plate {D-7} for stability when in vertical mode.
Turning on the laser
Turn on the laser with the On/Off key {B-3}. It does a self-test and the beam blinks while the laser is self­leveling. After it is leveled, the head rotates. You can choose H.I. Alert mode or change to manual mode (see later sections).
The laser has a wide self-leveling range; however, if the laser is set up out of the leveling range, the laser beam will continue to blink and the rotation will not start.
X-axis and Y-axis LED indicators
The X and Y-axis LED indicators {B-10} slowly blink green while the axes are leveling and turn on solid when each axis has reached a level position. They will rapidly blink red when in manual mode and the axis can be adjusted. They will be red and on solid when in manual, but the axis cannot be adjusted.

Button Functions

The CCW/CW and Plus/Minus buttons on the laser and the remote control units have multiple functions depending on the mode of operation. Please refer to the chart below to better understand their functionality.
Mode CCW / CW Buttons Plus / Minus
Automatic mode - rotating
Automatic mode - scan­ning

These fully apply only on Roteo 35. Other models feature less functions, according the following sections.

laser head will start rotating (Roteo 20HV/35/35G: 300 rpm, Roteo 25H: 600 rpm).
In manual mode, the laser does not self-level; this means that the beam will rotate even if the laser is not leveled. It can therefore be used on inclined planes such as stairs, roofs, or when manual grade setting is required. See later section on setting slope in manual or semi-automatic modes.

H.I. Alert mode

The H.I. feature stops the laser automatically and sounds an alarm if the laser is disturbed, preventing inaccurate readings. It functions only when selected.
X To activate this safeguard feature, press the H.I. key
{B-4} after turning on the laser. The H.I. LED {B-12} will blink rapidly while the laser is self-leveling.
X Thirty seconds after the head starts to rotate, the LED
will blink slowly, indicating the H.I. Alert function is activated.
X If the laser is disturbed while in H.I. Alert mode, the
head will stop rotating, the beam will turn off, the LED indicator will be on continuously, and an alarm will sound (Roteo 35/35G).
X On Roteo 20HV and 25H models all LEDs will be on
continuously when disturbed in H.I. mode.
X Press the H.I. key to turn off the H.I. Alert function.
Check to see if the beam elevation has changed from its original benchmark position.
X The laser is no longer in H.I. Alert mode. Press the H.I.
key to re-activate the H.I. Alert function.

Rotation mode (Roteo 20HV/35/35G)

The head rotates at four speeds: 0, 150, 300, 450, 600 rpm. The default setting is 300 rpm. The laser beam is more visible at slower rotation speeds.
X To increase the rotation speed press the Plus key
{B-9}. Press the Minus key {B-8} to decrease speed. Press and hold the Minus key to stop rotation.
X When the beam is stopped, the point can be moved to
the right or left using the Counter-clockwise / Clock­wise (CCW/CW) rotation keys {B-6 and B-7}. You can also move the head manually to position the beam point. To start rotation again, press the Plus key {B-9}.

Scanning mode (Roteo 20HV/35/35G)

For interior applications, scanning mode allows you to see the beam easier at a distance.
X To scan press the Scan / Rotation key {B-2}. The
beam will blink until the laser has self-leveled.
X To increase the scan length press the Plus key {B-9}.
Press the Minus key {B-8} to decrease the scan length.
X The scanning beam can be moved to the right or left
using the Counter-clockwise / Clockwise (CCW/CW) rotation keys {B-6 and B-7}.

7) Adjustable support for wall or ground stability
8) Screw to adjust support
9) Index notches for alignment The wall mount can be used to move the laser up or down on a ceiling grid. It can also be used when installing walls and partitions to move the laser back and forth for vertical alignment.

Motorized Wall Mount (Roteo 35/35G)

Activating the motorized wall mount
Allow the laser to self-level. Note the position or the beam.
X Press the Motorized mount key {B-5} to activate the
mount. The motorized mount LED {B-11} will turn on to indicate that the mount is now active (on the Remote, press Scan/Rotation key {E-3, F-4} for 1.5 seconds).
X To raise the laser press the Plus key {B-9}. Press the
Minus key {B-8} to lower the laser.
Maximum movement
When the beam is at 0 on the adjustable plate, the laser can be raised a maximum of 50 mm (2") and lowered a maximum of 60 mm (2.25").
Wait until self-leveled
While the laser is moving on the mount it does not self­level and the beam continues to rotate.
X After moving the laser, wait a few seconds in case the
laser needs to self-level. Check that it is still on the point or level desired and make adjustments if needed.
Automatic exit from mode
If you have not activated the wall mount for five minutes, the laser will automatically exit from the motorized mount mode and return to the previous mode. The Motorized mount LED will turn off.
Troubleshooting
X If the laser does not move on the mount, check that
the knobs {D-1} are tight enough to make the power contact for the motor. The mount can also be detached to check that the contacts are clean where the laser and mount.

Two modes are available:
• Full manual mode – Both the X and Y-axes will be in manual mode
• Semi-automatic mode – The X-axis self-levels, The Y­axis is in manual mode.
For slopes up to 10%, set up the laser in horizontal mode and use the remote to set the slope following the instruc­tions below.
For slopes greater than 10%, set up the laser in vertical mode and use the inclined plane feature explained in the following section.

Set-up for full manual mode

In full manual mode, the unit will not self-level and the head will continue to rotate. The plane of laser light can be tilted in either one or both planes.
To use the laser in full manual mode:
X After turning the laser on and allowing it to self-level,
press the Auto/Manual key {B-1}. The X-axis LED {B-10} above the key will blink red rapidly, indicating
that you are in manual mode and you can set slope in the X-axis. (The Y-axis LED will also be on and red.)
X Turn the laser so that the X on the top of the laser
faces the direction of the slope.
X Press either CCW/CW (manual slope) keys {B-6 or
B-7} to adjust the slope of the X-axis.
X To adjust the slope of the Y-axis, press the Auto/
Manual key {B-1} again. The Y-axis LED {B-10} above the key will blink red rapidly, indicating that you are in manual mode and you can set slope in the Y­axis. (The X-axis LED will also be on and red.)
X Turn the laser so that the Y on the top of the laser
faces the direction of the slope.
X Press either CCW/CW (manual slope) keys {B-6 or
B-7} to adjust the slope of the Y-axis.
X Press the Auto/Manual key {B-1} for 1.5 seconds to
exit manual mode and return to automatic mode. See illustration {J} in the back, inside cover of this manual.

Set-up for semi-automatic mode

In semi-automatic mode, the unit will self-level in the X­axis. The plane of laser light can be tilted manually in the Y-axis.
To use the laser in semi-automatic mode:
X After turning the laser on and allow the laser to self-
level, press and hold the Auto/Manual key {Roteo 35/ 35G: B-1, Roteo 20HV/25H: E-3} for three seconds.
Roteo 20HV/25H: The X-axis LED {B-10} above the key will blink green slowly while leveling. The Y-axis LED will blink quickly indicating that the Y-axis is in manual mode and you can set slope in the Y-axis.
X Turn the laser so that the Y on the top of the laser
faces the direction of the slope.
X Press either CCW/CW (manual slope) keys {B-6 or
B-7} to adjust the slope of the Y-axis.
X Press the Auto/Manual key {B-1} again to exit semi-
automatic mode and return to automatic mode.
Set-up for inclined planes (Roteo 20HV/35/
35G)
The Roteo can also be tilted, for manual slope, at various angles on the wall mount. A tripod with rotating mounting plate will speed set-up.
