The reference point for alignment of tiles is the intersect-
ing point P of the laser lines, directly in front of the meas-
uring tool. To project an angle, the measuring tool must be
rotated at this intersecting point, see figure E.
Position the measuring tool only on a clean wall holder 13.
The measuring tool cannot stand level on an uneven, soiled
wall holder surface, which could lead to faulty measuring re-
sults.
Positioning the Measuring Tool
When working on the floor, place down the measuring tool
with the bottom plate 10 facing the floor. Place the T-edge 7 of
the tool against a wall so that the 0° laser line runs parallel to
the reference line (e.g. a wall), see figure A. Measure the clear-
ance between laser line and reference line directly at the meas-
uring tool and as far away as possible from the measuring tool.
Align the measuring tool in such a manner that both clearances
are equal.
When working on a wall, firstly fasten the wall holder 13 to the
wall, e.g. by placing the wall holder via an opening onto a
screw that lightly projects out of the wall. Then tighten the
screw to secure the wall holder, see figure D. Fasten the meas-
uring tool with the magnets 8 via the bottom plate 10 against
the wall holder 13.
Spirit levels 3 and 5 aid in precisely positioning the laser line
against the wall.
– For horizontal alignment, the bubble must be within the
marks of the spirit level 3 which lays in the extension of the
horizontal laser line, see figure A.
– For diagonal alignment, the bubble must be within the
marks of spirit level 5, see figure B.
Laser Viewing Glasses (Accessory)
The laser viewing glasses filter out the ambient light. This
makes the red light of the laser appear brighter for the eyes.
Do not use the laser viewing glasses as safety goggles. The
laser viewing glasses are used for improved visualisation of
the laser beam, but they do not protect against laser radia-
tion.
Do not use the laser viewing glasses as sun glasses or in
traffic. The laser viewing glasses do not afford complete
UV protection and reduce colour perception.
