User Safety
WARNING:
• Carefully read the Safety Instructions and Product Manual
before using this product. The person responsible for the
instrument must ensure that all users understand and adhere to
these instructions.
WARNING:
• The following labels are placed on the laser tool to inform you of
the laser class for your convenience and safety. (Text has been
translated here for your convenience)
IEC /EN 60825-1
Complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for deviations
pursuant to Laser Notice No. 50, dated June 2007
CAUTION:
• While the laser tool is in operation, be careful not to expose your
eyes to the emitting laser beam (red light source). Exposure to a
laser beam for an extended time may be hazardous to your eyes.
CAUTION:
• Glasses may be supplied in some of the laser tool kits. These are
NOT certified safety glasses. These glasses are ONLY used to
enhance the visibility of the beam in brighter environments or at
greater distances from laser source.

Applications
Plumb Transfer
• Using the vertical laser beam, establish a vertical reference plane.
• P osition the desired object(s) until they are aligned with the vertical reference
plane to ensure object(s) are plumb.
Level Transfer
•Using the horizontal laser beam, establish a horizontal reference plane.
• P osition the desired object(s) until they are aligned with the horizontal
reference plane to ensure object(s)are level.
Square
• Using the vertical and horizontal laser beams, establish a point where the two
beams cross.
• P osition the desired object(s) until they are aligned with both the vertical and
horizontal laser beams to ensure objects(s) are square.
Batteries and Power
Battery Installation / Removal (See figure
)
B
Laser Tool
• Turn laser tool to battery door and open.
• Install / Remove batteries. Orient batteries correctly when placing into
battery compartment.
• Close battery door. Be sure that the door has been closed securely.
WARNING:
• Pay close attention to the battery holder's (+) and (-) markings
for proper battery insertion. Batteries must be of same type and
capacity. Do not use a combination of batteries with different
capacities remaining.
Set Up
Laser Tool
• Place laser tool on a flat, stable surface.
• To power ON and activate the auto leveling feature move the pendulum
/ transport lock to the unlocked position. The laser tool must then be
positioned in its upright position on a surface that is within the specified
compensation range.
Mounting on Accessories
• Position accessory in a place where it will not be easily disturbed and
near the central location of the area to be measured.
• Set up the accessory as required. Adjust positioning to be sure accessory
base is near horizontal (within laser tools compensation range).
• Mount the laser tool to the accessory using the appropriate fastening
method to be used with such accessory / laser tool combination.
CAUTION:
• Do not leave the laser tool unattended on an accessory without
fully tightening the fastening screw. Failing to do so may lead to
the laser tool falling and sustaining possible damage.
NOTE:
• It is best practice to always support laser tool with one hand when placing or
removing laser tool from an accessory.
• If positioning over a target, partially tighten the fastener, align laser tool,
and then fully tighten.
Operation
NOTE:
• Before operating the laser tool always be sure to check the laser tool for
accuracy.
• Laser tool will indicate when it is out of compensation range. Reference LED

Descriptions. Reposition laser tool to be closer to level.
• When not in use, please be sure to power OFF the laser tool by placeing the
pendulum lock in the locked position.
Power
• To turn the laser ON move the pendulum / transport lock to the unlocked
position.
• To turn the laser OFF, move the pendulum / transport lock to the locked
position.
Modes
OFF/ Locked (See figures
)
B
The laser will be OFF and the pendulum locked.
ON/ Self-Leveling (See figures
)
B
The pendulum lock on the laser tool will be positioned in the unlocked
/self-leveling position when the laser is turned ON
Accuracy Check and Calibration
NOTE:
• The laser tools are sealed and calibrated at the factory to the accuracies
specified.
• It is recommended to perform a calibration check prior to its first use and
then periodically during future use.
• The laser tool should be checked regularly to ensure its accuracies,
especially for precise layouts.
• When performing the accuracy checks, use the largest area / distance
possible, closest to the operating distance. The greater the area / distance,
the easier to measure the accuracy of the laser.
• The lock must be in the unlocked position to allow the laser tool to self-level
before checking the accuracy.
