Congratulations on the purchase of your STABILA measuring tool. LASER The STABILA LAX 500 G is an easy-to-use cross line and plumb-line laser for horizontal LASER RADIATION and vertical levelling. Plumb-line dots enable you to align and create plumb lines on DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM 510 - 635 nm / <1mW...
4. Commissioning 4.0 Inserting, removing and charging the battery Only 12 V Li-ion CAS System (Cordless Alliance System) battery packs can be used. Push in the battery pack in the direction of the arrow up to the stop. The battery pack must have an adequate charge capacity.
4.1 Unlocking and setting up When the protective slider is slid on, the laser exit windows are enabled. At the same time, the laser unit is unlocked and can be turned in the desired direction.
"Manual mode" button. For this purpose, press and hold it for more than 2 seconds. The laser beam flashes 2 x every 5 seconds. The LAX 500 G is not in self-levelling function mode and can only be used in this mode for marking and alignment!
5. Functions 5.1 Selecting laser functions Once the unit has been switched on, the "Laser lines" button can be used to set the various laser functions. Plumb-line function Transfers a determined point from the floor to the ceiling. 5.2 Working with the receiver Pulse mode must be activated for work completed over larger distances or using a suitable receiver.

7.2 Using the SWB10 bracket The LAX 500 G can be attached to and aligned with walls or profiles using the SWB 10 bracket. The clamp can be used to attach the bracket to interior construction profiles.
Checking vertical laser lines 1. Create a reference line, e.g. with a plumb line. 2. Set up and align the LAX 500 G at a distance of Y in front of this reference line. 3. Compare the laser line with the reference line.
4. Once automatic levelling has ended, mark the cross projected onto wall A. Point 1. 5. Turn the LAX 500 G by 180° and align with wall B using the same vertical laser line exit window. Do not adjust the height.
9. Technical data Laser type: Green diode laser, 510–530 nm wavelength Power output: < 1 mW, laser class 2, in accordance with IEC 60825-1:2014 EN60825-1:2014 /A11:2021 Self-levelling range: approx. ± 5° Levelling accuracy*: Laser line: ±0.3 mm/m ± 3/16“ over 50ft centre of laser line Batteries: 12 V 2 Ah Li-ion CAS battery pack 12 V 4 Ah Li-ion CAS battery pack...
