rotated to the ON position, the pendulum will be released from the locked
position and self level.
Using the Laser
The beams are level or plumb as long as the calibration has been checked
(refer to Field Calibration Check) and the laser beam is not flashing (refer
to Out of Tilt Range Indicator).
The tool can be used to transfer points using any combination of the five
beams.
INTEGRATED MAGNETIC PIVOTING BRACKET (FIG. 1)
CAUTION: Do not stand underneath the laser when it
is mounted with the magnetic pivoting bracket. Serious
personal injury or damage to the laser may result if the laser
falls.
The DW085 has a magnetic pivoting bracket (i) permanently attached
to the unit. This bracket allows the unit to be mounted to any upright
surface made of steel or iron using the magnets (j) located on the back
of the pivoting bracket. Common examples of suitable surfaces include
steel framing studs, steel door frames and structural steel beams. Position
the laser on a stable surface. Serious personal injury or damage to the
laser may result if the laser falls. The pivoting bracket also provides floor
clearance of approximately 4.5 cm (1-3/4") which aids in the installation of
steel framing track.
OUT OF TILT RANGE INDICATOR (FIG. 4)
The DW085 laser is designed to self-level. If the laser has been tilted so
much that it cannot level itself (> 4° tilt), it will flash the laser beam. The
flashing beam indicates the tilt range has been exceeded and is not level
(or plumb) and should not be used for determining or marking level
(or plumb). Try repositioning the laser on a more level surface.
ALIGNING THE SQUARE LAYOUT - FINE ADJUST (FIG. 2)
The fine adjustment knob (r) on the side of the DW085 is for lining up the
horizontal beams. Place the DW085 on a flat surface and turn the knob
to the right to move the beam to the right or to the left to move the beam
to the left. Rotating the fine adjustment knob adjusts the entire internal
mechanism, maintaining the 90° angle between the three horizontal dots.
