Inserting / replacing batteries

Slide the locking button forwards to unlock the
battery compartment. Open the battery compart­ment cover and insert the batteries, observing the
correct polarity. Then press the battery compartment
cover back down until it engages.

The battery symbol 9 lights up when the battery
voltage is too low. Replace the batteries as soon as
possible.

Leica Lino 757665i en

• Insert the batteries observing the correct polarity

• Use alkaline batteries or rechargeable batteries only

• Remove the batteries if the instrument is not to
be used for a long period of time (to prevent
corrosion)

content as possible.

• The permissible temperature range for charging is
between 0°C and +40°C/+32°F and +104°F. For
optimal charging we recommend charging the
batteries at a low ambient temperature of +10°C
to +20°C/+50°F to +68°F if possible.

• It is normal for the battery to become warm
during charging.

Storage of L360 NiMH Batteries

• Ensure that the product is stored in dry environ­ment with a temperature range of 0°C to +20°C /
32°F to 68°F, in order to minimize the discharge
rate of the battery.

• Recharge batteries before longer storage
periods.

• At the recommended storage temperature range,
batteries can be stored up to 6 months, after
which the batteries should be fully recharged.

• After longer storage intervals, please recharge
batteries before use.

Self-levelling and Lock functions

The instrument automatically levels itself within the
specified grade range (Refer to "Technical data") .

Press the Lock switch 3 in order to transport or tilt
the instrument beyond the self-levelling range. When
locked, the pendulum is fixed and the self-levelling
function is deactivated.

Pulse/Power save mode

(only Lino L360, L2P5, L2+, and L2)

The instrument is fitted with a Power save mode. If
particularly good visibility of the laser line is not
necessary and you wish to save energy, you can
switch the Pulse mode on and off by pressing the
PULSE/POWER SAVE MODE key 2.
To be able to detect the laser lines over long
distances (> 15 m) or in unfavourable lighting condi­tions, a laser detector can be used. The detector is
able to locate the laser beam in Pulse mode, even
over long distances.

(Laser detector refer to accessories)

The L2G+ operates in a continuously pulsed



mode to optimize battery life and visibility, and as a
consequence the L2G+ has no pulse/Power save
button.

Check the accuracy of your Leica Lino regu-



larly and particularly before important measuring
tasks.

Checking the accuracy of the levelling

Set the instrument on a tripod half-way between two
walls (A+B) that are approx. 5 m apart.

Place the Lock switch 3 in the "Unlocked" ( )
position.
Direct the instrument at wall A and switch on the
instrument. Activate the horizontal laser line or laser
point and mark the position of the line or the point
on wall A (-> A1).
Rotate the instrument by 180° and mark the hori­zontal laser line or the laser point in exactly the same
way on wall B (-> B1).

Operation

Then place the instrument at the same elevation as
close as possible to wall A and again mark the hori­zontal laser line or the laser point on wall A (-> A2) .
Rotate the instrument by 180° again and mark the
laser on wall B (-> B2). Measure the distances of the
marked points A1-A2 and B1-B2. Calculate the differ­ence of the two measurements. If the difference
does not exceed 2 mm, then the Leica Lino is within
tolerance.

Place the Lock switch 3 in the "Unlocked" ( )

Position the instrument approx. 5 m away from the
wall. Direct the instrument at the wall and switch on
with the LASER key 1. Activate the laser line with the
LASER key 1 and mark the intersection point of laser
crosshairs on the wall.

Swivel the instrument to the right and then to the
left. Observe the vertical deviation of the horizontal
line from the marking. If the difference does not
exceed 3 mm, then the Leica Lino is within tolerance.

Leica Lino 757665i en

Checking the accuracy of the vertical line:

(only Lino L360, L2P5, L2+, L2G+, and L2)

Place the Lock switch 3 in the "Unlocked" ( )
position.

As reference, use a plumb-bob and attach it as close
as possible to an approx. 3 m high wall.

Position the instrument at a distance of approx.

1.5 m from the wall at an elevation of approx. 1.5 m.

Direct the instrument at the wall and switch on with
the LASER key 1. Activate the laser line with the
LASER key 1. Rotate the instrument and align it with
the bottom of the plumb line. Now read off the
maximum deviation of the laser line from the top of
the plumb line. If the difference does not exceed
3 mm, then the Leica Lino is within tolerance.

Rotate the instrument by 180° so that it points in the
opposite direction 2 to direction 1. Adjust the instru­ment so that the laser beam hits point A1 exactly. If
point B2 is no further than 2 mm away from point B1,
then the Leica Lino is within tolerance.

Should your Leica Lino be outside of the spec-



ified tolerance, please contact an authorised dealer­ship or Leica Geosystems.

Display notices

Falling below or exceeding the permissible
temperature range:

The laser switches off and all symbols flash.

Outside of the self-levelling range:

The laser switches off and the symbol of the selected
function indicator light starts to flash (for L2), or the
line or point will begin to flash on and off and the
symbol of the selected function indicator light begins
to flash (for P3, P5, L2+, L2G+, and L2P5).

with the same care that you would apply to binocu­lars or a camera.

Dropping or violent shaking of the instrument may
damage it. Check the instrument for any damage
before using it. Check the levelling accuracy of the
instrument regularly.

Transport

To safely transport the instrument, set the Lock
switch 3 to "Locked" ( ).

WARNING:



The Leica Lino conforms to the most stringent
requirements of the relevant standards and regula­tions. Yet, the possibility of it causing interference in
other devices cannot be totally excluded.

FCC statement (applic. in U.S.)

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause unde­sired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful inter­ference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be deter­mined by turning the equipment off and on, the user

Safety instructions

is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is
connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help

WARNING:



Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by Leica Geosystems for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Laser classification

Lino L360

The Leica Lino produces visible laser beams, which are emitted from the instrument:

It is a Class 2 laser product in accordance with:

• IEC60825-1 : 2007 "Radiation safety of laser
products"

• Lino L2G+: IEC 60825-1:2014

Laser Class 2 products:

Do not stare into the laser beam or direct it towards
other people unnecessarily. Eye protection is
normally afforded by aversion responses including
the blink reflex.

Leica Lino 757665i en

WARNING:



Looking directly into the beam with optical aids

(e.g. binoculars, telescopes) can be hazardous.

CAUTION:
