Operating instructions The STABILA LAR 120 G rotation laser is an easy to operate rotation laser for horizontal and vertical levelling and plumb lines. It is self-levelling in a range of ± 5°. The laser beam can be received at distances of up to 150 m with the use of a receiver, even when it is no longer visible to the naked eye.
English text ! Familiarise yourself with the laser equipment and all accessories of the class 3R laser instrument. Further information can be found at www.stabila.de ..Read the Operating Manual carefully. Observe the safety measures.

Main applications: Levelling Set the unit on a firm base or a tripod. Tip: It is useful to set up the rotation laser centrally to the subsequent measurement points. Pressing the button (3), switches the rotation laser ON and it starts to level itself automatically. Once levelling is complete, the laser begins to rotate.

During this time, minor discrepancies from the horizontal are ironed out. Then the laser unit switches to monitored Automatic mode and the Y LED goes out. Height of tool alert function Minor tremors or vibrations are automatically compensated for only up to a set threshold.

After switching on (via button 3), press button (4c) until the Z LED lights. The unit is now in height of tool alert function mode. Buttons (17) and (18) on the remote control can now be used to incline this laser plane at right angles to the line from the targeting marks.

Checking the calibration The LAR 120 G rotation laser has been designed for building site use and leaves our factory perfectly calibrated. As with any precision instrument, however, its calibration must be regularly checked. The unit should be checked before starting any new tasks, particularly when the unit has been exposed to strong vibrations.

Adjustment - Horizontal If the readings are determined as being outside the tolerance limits during the horizontal check, the laser can be adjusted as follows. The decisive factor is the distance between the opposing measurement points, i.e. points 1 + 3 and 2 + 4. Points 1 and 3 on the unit‘s y-axis and points 2 and 4 on the unit‘s x-axis now correspond.For example, if the distance between points 2 + 4 is outside the tolerance limit of 0.1 mm/m, the laser must be adjusted along this axis!

Vertical checking (The unit is tilted 90° to the side foot). Two parallel wall surfaces at least 10m ( or 50 ft) apart are required for the vertical check. For vertical levelling, the rotation laser is set directly in front of wall A either on its side feet or mounted on a tripod.
Adjustment - Vertical If a tolerance has been exceeded when performing the vertical check, the laser can be re-adjusted as follows. Switch the laser off. To go to Adjustment mode, hold down button (4a) first. Additionally press button (3). as soon as the y LED illuminates, release button (4a).
