Overview

The Leica Lino L2P5/L2P5G is a self-levelling mul­tifunctional laser. It combines the advantage of a cross-line laser and a point laser in one tool. It isa reliable precision laser for any kind of taskslike lev­elling, plumbing, transfering and setting out right angles. It supports you on job side with two crossing ver­ticaland horizontal lines and five points (four points and one intersection point in front of the device) which are arranged precisely in 90° to each other.

Instrument Set-up

InstrumentSet-up
Introduction
The safety instructions (see Safety Instruc-
tions) and the user manual shouldbe read
through carefullybefore the product is used for the first time.
The person responsible for the product must ensure that all users understand these dir­ectionsand adhere to them.
The symbols used have the following meanings:
WARNING
Indicatesa potentiallyhazardous situation or an unintended use which, if not avoided, willresult in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicatesa potentiallyhazardous situation or an unintended use which, if not avoided, may result in minor injury and/or appreciable material, financial and environmental damage.

Levelling lock

Level ling unlock ed
In the unlockedposition the instrument auto­matically levelsitselfwithin the specified inclin­ation range. (See Technicaldata)
Level ling lock ed
Turn the levelling lock in order to transport or tilt the instrument beyond the self-levelling range. When locked, the pendulum is fixed and the self­levelling function isdeactivated. In this case the laser blinks every 5sec.
Important paragraphs which must be adhered to in practice as they enable the product to be used in a technically correct and efficient manner.

Instrument Set-up
Laser receiver
To be able to detect the laser lines over long dis­tances or inunfavourable lighting conditions, a laser receiver can be used.
We recommend the Leica RGR200 laser receiver.
The Lino is powered by XRANGE technologyand therefore automaticallydetected by the receiver.
Li-Ion battery
Charge Li-Ion battery
Charge the Li-Ion battery before using it for the first time. While charging, the instrument may heat up. This isnormal and should not affect the instru­ment´s lifespan or performance. At the recom­mended storage temperature of -20°C to +30°C (-4°F to +86°F), batteries containing a 50% to 100% charge can be stored up to 1 year. After this storage period the batteries must be recharged.
CAUTION
Connecting the charger using the wrong adapter may causeserious damage to the instrument. Any damage caused by misuse is not covered by war­ranty. Use only Leica-approved chargers, bat­teries and cables. Unapproved chargers or cables can causethe battery to explode or damage the instrument.

Accuracy Check

Accu racyCh eck
Check the accuracy of your Leica Lino reg­ularly and particularlybefore important meas­uring tasks.Check Levelling lockbefore checking the accuracy.

Levelling

Checki ng the accurac y of the levelling
Set the instrument on a tripod half-way between two walls (A+B) that are approx. 5 m apart. Place the lockswitch in the "Unlocked" position (see Lev-
elling lock). 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 (A1). Rotate the instru­ment by 180° and mark the horizontal laser line or the laser point in exactlythe same way on wall (B1).
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 mar ked points A1-A2 and B1-B2. Calculate the difference of the two meas­urements.
|(A1 - A2) - (B1 - B2)| <=2 mm
If the difference does not exceed 2 mm, then the Leica Lino is within tolerance.
Should your Leica Lino be outside of the spe­cified tolerance, please contact a localdealer or an authorised Leica Geosystems dis­tributor.
Leica Lino L2P5/L2P5G

Accuracy Check
Vertical and horizontal line
Checki ng the accurac y of the horizontal line
Placethe lock switch in the "Unlocked" position (see Levelling lock). Position the instrument approx. 5 m away from the wall. Direct the instru­ment at the wall and switchon. Activate the laser lineand mark the intersection point of laser crosshairs on the wall. Swivelthe instrument to the right and then to the left. Observe the verticaldevi­ation of the horizontal line from the marking. If the difference does not exceed 3 mm, then the Leica Lino is within tolerance.
Checki ng the accurac y of the vertic al line
Placethe lock switch in the "Unlocked" position (see Levelling lock). As a reference, use a plumb- bob and attach it as closeas 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. 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 2 mm, then the Leica Lino is within tolerance.
Should your Leica Lino be outside of the spe­cified tolerance, please contact a localdealer or an authorised Leica Geosystems dis­tributor.
Vertical plumb points
Checki ng the accurac y of the upper plumb point:
Placethe lock switch in the "Unlocked" position (see Levelling lock). Set up the laser on itstripod to wall mount bracket near point A1 at a minimum dis­tance of 1.5 m from point B1. The horizontal laser isaligned in direction 1. Mark the laser points A1 and B1 with a pin.
Checki ng the accurac y of the lower pl umb point:
Leica Lino L2P5/L2P5G
13
Accuracy Check
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 hitspoint A1 exactly. If point B2 is no fur ther than 2 mm away from point B1, then the Leica Lino is within tol­erance.
Should your Leica Lino be outside of the spe­cified tolerance, please contact a localdealer or an authorised Leica Geosystems dis­tributor.
Perpendicularity horizontal points
Placelock switch in "Unlocked" position (see Lev-
elling lock). Mark a reference point (P1) approx.
5m from the wallsand position the lower plumb point exactly on it. Alignthe cross hair to the left wall and mar k the intersectionpoint (a1) approx. on the same hight like P1 to the wall. Shortly after mark the right-hand perpendicular beam (b1) on the front wall.
Then rotate the device exactly90° clockwise around the plumb point P1 and position the left-
hand perpendicular beam to the existing ref­erence point a1. Make sure that the upper plumb point isstill exactly on the reference P1. Check afterwards the new reference point b2 with the old reference b1 on the front wall. The deviation between the two points may be max. 3mm. Mark the new position of the right-hand perpendicular beam to the right wall with c1.
Should your Leica Lino be outside of the spe­cified tolerance, please contact a localdealer or an authorised Leica Geosystems dis­tributor.
Afterwar ds turn the device exactly 180° around the plumb point P1 and position the right-hand per­pendicular beam to the existing reference point a1. Make sure that the upper plumb point isstill exactly on the reference P1. Then mark the left­hand beam to the right wall and mark it with c2. Fin­allymeasure the difference between the former reference point c1 and the new point c2. The devi­ation may be max. 3mm between these two points.

Care

Care
Never immerse the device in water. Wipe off dirt with a damp soft cloth. Never use aggressive cleaning agents or solvents.Treat the instrument with the same care that you would applyto 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.
To warranty the best precision and visibility please clean the optics of your device regularly. There­fore blow off the dust from the glasses without touching the opticswith your fingers. If necessary use a damp soft cloth and a little bit of pure alcohol.
To avoid wrong measurements also clean your adapters regularly. This could be done also by the proposed recommendation. Especially the inter­face between the adapter and device should always be clean to enable easy rotation. To clean the magnetic surface you could use compressed air or modelling clay.
If the equipment get wet always dry it (max. 70°C/158°F) before repacking it into the case.
