Work as close to the laser as possible. You can work up to 1000 feet (305M) from the AS2 with the R7 receiver and 1650 feet (500M) from the AS2 MAGNUM using the R8 receiver or most brands/models of machine control receivers.
In the event that a very long distance is required, the AS2 can be set-up in the middle of the site, covering a total diameter of 2000 feet (610 meters) using the R7 receiver. The AS2 MAGNUM can cover a 3300 foot (1000M) diameter using the R8 receiver, or most brands/models of machine control receivers.
Note: When using either AS2 model at slope settings over 14%, you will need to tilt the tripod to allow the laser to reach the desired slope. By aligning the laser so that one tripod leg is to the rear (down slope side), you...

Slope Setup The display reads in percent of grade (the number displayed is the units of rise or fall per 100 units of run). A 2-1/2% slope (projecting upward from the front of the laser) shows as 2.50 on the display. If a down slope is needed, the display is set to the required slope and the rear of the laser is aimed in the direction of slope.
90 degrees apart, the optional model S2 Compound Slope Adapter Kit can be used to calculate and set the AS2 to the proper angle and resultant slope. NOTE: The S2 kit is standard with the AS2 MAGNUM system.

Compound Slope Setup 2. Using the compound slope chart supplied with the S2 kit, find the two slopes for the site on the chart and follow their row and column until they intersect. Remember that the main slope is the steeper of the two slopes. The upper number in the box where the two slopes intersect is the angle to set into the S2 adapter.
Checking and Adjusting Calibration Calibration is your responsibility, check it often. Although both AS2 models are calibrated at the factory and are exceptionally rugged lasers, it is well worth the effort to check calibration before you first use your laser (after shipping) and then from time to time to ensure that you are doing the highest quality work possible.

Checking and Adjusting Calibration 5. Return to the laser and rotate it 180 degrees. Allow the laser to re-level. The opposite cross axis (X) direction is now aimed at the target. Find and mark the laser beam height (see step 4). 6.

Maintenance And Troubleshooting Calibration • There is no set interval for calibrating either AS2 model, but calibration should be checked from time to time in order to ensure that the highest possible quality of work is being done. Calibration should always be checked if the laser has been handled roughly or shipped.
Warranty Guardian 36 month warranty coverage The AS2 and AS2 MAGNUM laser transmitters, along with the R7 receiver, are warranted for thirty-six (36) months from the date of new equipment purchase from an authorized dealer. The R8 receiver is warranted for twenty-four (24) months. During...
