Introduction

The safety instructions (see Safety Instructions)
and the user manual should be read through care­fullybefore the product is used for the first time.

The person responsible for the product must
ensure that all users understand these directions
and 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.

Important par agraphs which must be
adhered to in practice as they enable the
product to be used in a technically corr ect
and efficient manner .

Levelling lock

See alsoLevelling the instrument

Level li ng unlock ed

In the unlocked position the instrument auto­matically levelsitself within the specified inclin­ation range. (See Technical data)

Level li ng locked

Turn the levelling lockin 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 3sec.

Instrument Set-up

Laser receiver

To be able to detect the laser lines over long dis­tances
(>15 m) or in unfavourable lighting conditions, a
laser receiver can be used.

We recommend the Leica RVL80 laser
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 is normal 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 cause serious damage to the instrument. Any
damage caused by misuse is not covered by war­ranty. Use only Leica-approved chargers, bat­teries and cables. Unapproved charger s or cables
can cause the battery to explode or damage the
instrument.

Insert Li-Ion battery

Insert the battery-pack by pressing it down and
then tilting it towards the housing as shown until it
snaps in.

Alkaline batteries

To ensure a reliable use, we recommend using
high quality Alkaline batteries.

Insert Alkaline batteries

Insert Alkaline batteries in the battery-pack.

Accuracy Check

Accu racyCh eck

Check the accuracy of your LeicaLino L4P1
regularly and particularlybefore important
measuring tasks. Check Levelling lock
before checking the accuracy.

Levelling

Checking the accuracy of the lev elling

Set the instrument on a tr ipod half-way between
two walls (A+B) that are approx. 5 m apart. Place
the lockswitchin the "Unlocked" position. Direct
the instrument at wall A and switch on the instru­ment. Activate the horizontallaser 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
exactly the 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 wallB (B2). Measure the dis­tances of the marked 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 L4P1 iswithin tolerance.

Accuracy Check

Vertical and horizontal line

Checking the accuracy of the hori zontal line

Placethe lockswitch in the "Unlocked" position.
Position the instrument approx. 5 m away from the
wall. Direct the instrument at the wall and switch
on. Activate the laser lineand 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 horizontalline
from the marking. If the difference does not
exceed 3 mm, then the Leica Lino L4P1 is within
tolerance.

Checking the accuracy of the vertic al line

Placethe lockswitch in the "Unlocked" position. As
a 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 wallat an elevation of approx. 1.5 m. Dir­ect the instrument at the walland 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 3 mm, then
the Leica Lino L4P1 iswithin tolerance.

Vertical plumb points

Checking the accuracy of the upper pl umb
point:

Set up the laser on its tripod o wallmount bracket
near point A1 at a minimum distance of 1.5 m from
point B1. The horizontal laser is aligned in dir­ection 1. Mark the laser points A1 and B1 with a
pin.

Checking the accuracy of the lower plumb
point:

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 hits point A1
exactly. If point B2 is no further than 2 mm away
from point B1, then the Leica Lino L4P1 is within
tolerance.

Care

Care

Never immerse the device in water. Wipe off dirt
with a damp soft cloth. Never use aggressive
cleaning agents or solvents. Tr eat the instrument
with the same care that you would apply to bin­oculars or a camera. Dropping or violent shaking
of the instrument may damage it. Checkthe instru­ment for any damage before using it. Check the
levelling accuracy of the instrument regularly.
