Depress the spring loaded Manual Head Rotation Button (A) on the top
of the protective cap. The button will make contact with the rotary laser
head. While maintaining pressure on the Manual Head Rotation
Button, you can now turn the button and direct the laser beams in the
direction of your mark.
Since the laser has been designed with dual, side by side laser diodes,
you may see 2 laser dots on the object you are projecting the beam
onto. Marks can be made using either laser dot. Mark the center of the
dot.
DO NOT attempt to use the Manual Head Rotation Button while the
rotary head is spinning.
While using the Manual Head Rotation Button, it is recommended that
you set the Bump Sensor to Setting 1. See Bump Sensor operation.
Laser Enhancement Glasses
The D WALT Laser Kit includes a pair of Laser
E
Enhancement Glasses. These red lens
glasses improve the visibility of the laser beam
under bright light conditions or over long
distances. These glasses are not required to
operate the laser but are helpful. Working best indoors, the lens filters

out ambient light and intensifies the red laser dot
or line to your eyes.
CAUTION: These glasses are not ANSI
approved safety glasses and should not be worn
while operating other tools. These glasses do not
keep the laser beam from entering your eyes.
DANGER: NEVER STARE DIRECTLY INTO
THE LASER BEAM, WITH OR WITHOUT
THESE GLASSES.
Target Card
The D WALT Rotary Laser Kit includes a Laser
E
Target Card to aid in locating and marking the laser
beam. The target card enhances the visibility of the laser beam as the
beam crosses over the card. The card is marked with inch and metric
scales. The laser beam passes through the red plastic and reflects off
of the reflective tape on the reverse side. The magnets at the top hold
the target card to ceiling track or steel studs to determine plumb and
level positions.
Digital Laser Detector
The D WALT Digital Laser Detector enables you to locate a laser beam
E
emitted by a Rotary Laser in bright light conditions or over long
distances. The detector can be used in both indoor and outdoor
situations where it is difficult to see the laser beam. The detector is not
for use with non-rotating lasers.
The detector gives both visual and audio signals as to the location of
the laser beam as the beam crosses over the detector. The D
Digital Laser Detector is compatible with most rotary lasers on the
market today. The clamp attaches the Digital Laser Detector to grade
rods, leveling poles, wall studs or posts. The detector can also be
mounted to ceiling track by attaching the magnets on the top of the
detector to the track.
If this laser kit contains a D WALT Digital Laser Detector, a separate
E
instruction manual has been included. For proper use and operation
read and understand the Detector manual before use.
