Working with the RM 10 Rotating
Mount (see figures F–H)
You can use the rotating mount (11) to
rotate the measuring tool 360° around
a central, always visible plumb point.
This enables you to set up the laser lines
precisely, without having to change the
position of the measuring tool.
You can use the fine adjustment screw
(14) to align vertical laser lines precisely
with reference points.
Place the measuring tool with the guide
groove (6) on the guide rail (12) of
the rotating mount (11) and slide the
measuring tool all the way onto the
platform.
To disconnect the measuring tool, pull
it off the rotating mount in the opposite
direction.
Positioning possibilities of the rotating
mount:
– Standing on a flat surface,
– Screwed to a vertical surface,
– On metallic surfaces using the magnets
(15),
– On crown moulding using the ceiling
clip (16).
Roughly align the rotating mount (11)
before switching on the measuring tool.
Working with the Laser
Target Plate
The laser target plate (20) improves
v i s i b i l i t y o f t h e l a s e r b e a m i n
unfavourable conditions and at greater
distances.
The reflective half of the laser target plate
(20) improves visibility of the laser line.
The transparent half enables the laser
line to be seen from behind the laser
target plate.
Working with the Tripod
(Accessory)
A tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable
support surface for measuring. Place
the measuring tool with the 1/4" tripod
mount (5) on the thread of the tripod
(21) or a conventional camera tripod.
Use with Attachments
-17-
Tighten the measuring tool using the
locking screw of the tripod.
Roughly align the tripod before switching
on the measuring tool.
Securing with the universal
positioning device (accessory)
(see figure N)
Using the universal holder (17), you
can secure the measuring tool on
vertical surfaces, pipes or magnetizable
materials, for example. The universal
holder is also suitable for use as a
building tripod and facilitates height
adjustment of the measuring tool.
Roughly align the universal holder (17)
before switching on the measuring tool.
Working with the magnetic
mounting bracket LB 10
(accessory)
You can secure the measuring tool on
ve r t i c a l s u r fa c e s o r m a g n et i s a b l e
materials using the magnetic mounting
bracket (18). In conjunction with the
ceiling clip (16), the measuring tool can
also be aligned vertically.
Roughly align the magnetic mounting
bracket (18) before switching on the
measuring tool.
Working with the Laser Receiver
(accessory) (see figure N)
Use the laser receiver (19) to improve
detection of the laser lines in adverse
lighting conditions (bright environment,
d i re c t s u n l i g h t ) a n d ove r g re a te r
distances.
All operating modes are suitable for
operation with the laser receiver (19).
Laser enhancement glasses
(Accessory)
The laser enhancement glasses filter out
ambient light. This makes the light of the
laser appear brighter to the eye.
• Do not use the laser glasses as
protective glasses. The laser goggles
make the laser beam easier to see;
they do not protect you against laser
radiation.
