Calibration: Calibration should be checked periodically or if the laser has
been handled roughly or shipped.
Batteries: Occasionally remove the batteries and check the contacts for
corrosion. Remove the batteries if the laser is to be stored for an extended
period.
Laser Output Windows: Check the output windows regularly for dust and
dirt, and clean with a camera brush or compressed air if necessary.
Control panel and exterior: Clean the control panel and other exterior
surfaces of the laser with a soft, damp cloth.
Moisture: Never store the laser in a carrying case that is wet inside. If
moisture gets inside the laser, place it in a warm area with the battery cover
off until it is completely dry.
Troubleshooting
If the laser will not operate and there is no obvious damage, check to see if
the low battery light is on and replace the batteries. Check the battery
contacts and make sure they are clean.
The receiver shows an on-grade at two different heights– Check for windows
or mirrors that could reflect the laser light, or for other lasers on the jobsite
that could cause the second reading.
Laser knocked over– Inspect the optics and housing for damage. Use the
receiver to make sure the laser is transmitting. Check the calibration and
adjust if necessary.
Laser works only at short distances– Check the output windows for dust or
moisture. Remove dust with a camera brush or with clean compressed air.
Receiver will not give on grade display at long distance– You may be at the
edge of the laser's specified working radius or there may be dust or moisture
in the optical path the is reducing beam power.
A single flashing (blinking) red LED for either the X or Y axis indicates the
laser's internal diagnostics have detected a problem and a service center
should be consulted.
There are no user serviceable components inside the laser!
