To Turn the Self-Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser On and Off
WARNING
When turning on the Self-Leveling 360 degree Cross Line Laser,
always be aware of protecting your eyes and the eyes of those
around you. Never point the 360 Degree Cross Line Laser at anyone’s face, including
your own.
To turn the Self-Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser on, push the mode switch in the
direction of the unlock icon, or press the laser button when the mode switch is in the direction
of the lock icon.
If the Self-Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser is turned on with the mode switch in the
direction of unlock icon, push the mode switch in the direction of the lock icon to turn off.
If the Self-Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser is turned on with the mode switch in the
direction of the lock icon, press the laser button repeatedly until it turns off.
Laser-Line Projection Modes
The Self-Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser has three laser-projection modes. To select
a specic laser-projection mode, repeatedly press the laser 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 laser button:
•
Press the button once to select the horizontal laser line.
•
Press the button twice to select the vertical laser line.
•
In the Self-Leveling mode, press the button three times to return to the cross-hair pattern.
In manual leveling mode, press the button three times to turn the laser off. Press the laser
button again to restart with the cross-hair pattern.
11
Self-Leveling Mode (FIG. 3)
Your Self-Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser has two working modes: self-leveling mode
and manual leveling mode.
In self-leveling mode, the tool will level itself if it is within ±4° of horizontal.
Place the Self-Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser on a at, smooth surface that is within
±4° of horizontal.
Turn the tool on by sliding the mode switch in the direction of the unlock icon. The Self-
Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser will automatically level within 6 seconds.
Press the laser button until the desired laser-projection mode is achieved and the laser line is
projected from the laser aperture.
If the surface on which the Self-Leveling 360 Degree Cross Line Laser is placed exceeds
±4° from horizontal, the laser line will blink as an alarm and the LED indicator for warning will
illuminate in red. In this event, adjust the angle of the surface slightly.
To turn off the laser lines, slide the mode switch in the direction of the lock icon.
Fig. 3
Manual Leveling Mode
Keep the mode switch in the lock icon position and press the laser button to turn on the laser.
The laser lines are now locked and are no longer self-leveling.
Press the laser button repeatedly to change the laser-projection mode: horizontal, vertical, or
cross-hair.
In manual leveling mode, the LED indicator for leveling status will always illuminate in red; the
laser lines are projected continuously and will not blink, even if the slope angle exceeds 4°.
Press the laser button repeatedly until the laser turns off.
