SELF-LEVELLING CROSS-LINE LASER LEVEL - 057-4587-6

SAFETY GUIDELINES

This self-levelling cross-line laser level has a built-in laser light. The laser is Class II and emits output power of a maximum 1 mW and 650 wavelengths. These lasers do not normally present an optical hazard. However, do not stare at the beam, as this can cause ﬂash blindness.

The following labels are on your tool. They indicate the location from which the laser level emits the laser light.

Always be aware of the laser light location when using the tool. Always make sure that any bystanders in the vicinity of use are made aware of the dangers of looking directly into the laser.

WARNING!

LASER RADIATION. DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM. Class II laser product. Turn the laser

beam on only when using this tool.

• Do not remove or deface any product labels.

• Avoid direct eye exposure. The laser beam can cause

ﬂash blindness.

• The laser level is not a toy. Always keep it out of the reach of children. The laser light emitted from this tool should never be directed toward

any person for any reason.

• Do not operate the tool around children or allow children to operate the tool.

• Do not place the tool in a position that may cause anyone to stare at the laser

beam, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

• Do not use on surfaces such as sheet steel that have shiny, reﬂective surfaces. The reﬂective surface could reﬂect the beam back at the operator.

• Always turn the laser tool off when not in use. Leaving the tool on increases the risk of someone inadvertently staring into the laser beam.

• Do not attempt to repair or disassemble the self-levelling cross-line laser level.

If unqualiﬁed persons attempt to repair this product, serious injury may occur. Any repair required on this laser product should be performed only by authorized service personnel.

• Do not operate the tool in combustible areas, such as in the presence of ﬂammable liquids, gases, or dust.

• Use of other accessories that have been designed for use with other laser tools could result in serious injury.

• Keep batteries out of reach of children.

• Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who

may use this tool. If you loan this tool to someone else, also loan these instructions to them to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.

Laser line projection modes (ﬁg 3)

Your self-levelling cross-line laser level has three laser-projection modes. To select a speciﬁc laser-projection mode, press the mode button until you reach the desired projection mode. This laser tool defaults to the cross-hair pattern mode when it is turned on.

To choose a projection mode, press the mode button:

1. Press the button once to select the horizontal laser line.

2. Press the button twice to select the vertical laser line.

3. Press the button three times to return to the cross-hair pattern (horizontal and vertical).

Using your self-levelling cross-line laser level

Your self-levelling cross-line laser level has two working modes: Self-levelling mode and Lock (manual) mode.

Self-levelling mode

In this mode, the tool will level itself if it is within ±4° of horizontal.

1. Place the self-levelling cross-line laser level on a ﬂat, smooth surface that is within ±4° of horizontal.

2. Turn the tool on by sliding the power switch to the left position. The self-levelling cross-line laser level will automatically level within 6 seconds. The LED indicator will shine green.

3. Press the mode button until the desired laser-projection mode is achieved and the laser line is projected from the laser aperture.

4. If the surface on which the self-levelling cross-line laser level is placed exceeds ±4° from horizontal, the laser line will blink as an alarm and the LED indicator will shine red. In this event, adjust the angle of the surface slightly (ﬁg 4).

5. To turn off the laser lines, slide the switch to the right position.

WARNING!

When turning the laser on, always be aware of protecting your eyes and the eyes of those around you. Never point the laser light at anyone’s face, including your own.

Lock mode

This mode cannot be used to perform horizontal or vertical levelling, because the laser lines are no longer self-balancing. In this mode, the LED indicator will always shine red.

1. Keep the power switch to the right position, press the mode button to turn on the laser. The laser lines are now locked, and are no longer self-levelling.

2. Press the mode button repeatedly to change the laser-projection mode.

3. Slope your self-levelling cross-line laser level to project a straight line for reference. In this mode, the laser lines are projected continuously and will not blink, even if the slope angle exceeds 4°.

4. To turn the laser off, press the mode button repeatedly until the laser shuts off.

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

Do not, at any time, allow brake ﬂuids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc. to come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.

When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage. To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by a qualiﬁed service technician.

Remove the batteries when cleaning the laser tool.

Storing the self-levelling cross-line laser level

The following steps should be taken in order to prepare the self-levelling cross-line laser level for storage.

• Remove the batteries from the tool and store it in a cool dry location.

• Always store the tool indoors. When not in use, always store the tool in its protective case.

• After you have ﬁnished using the tool, always make sure that the switch is in the off position.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES SOLUTIONS

The laser line projection is weak

Batteries are weak Replace with new batteries

The laser line is hard to see

The tool is too far from the target

Move the tool closer to the target

Laser line is not projected

No batteries installed or batteries are depleted

Install new batteries

Laser line ﬂickers for alert

The surface where the tool has been placed is uneven or the tool is out of its automatic self-levelling range

1. Place the tool on a more level surface

2. Set the tool to its lock mode

If the problem remains unsolved after performing the checks described above, call the toll-free helpline, at 1-800-689-9928.
