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 . (T ext 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 ONL Y used to
enhance the visibility of the beam in brighter environments or at
greater distances from laser source.

Batteries and Power
Battery Installation / Removal (See figure
B
)
Laser T ool
• T urn 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 T ool
• Place laser tool on a flat, stable surface.
• T o 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.
• Setuptheaccessoryasrequired.Adjustpositioningtobesureaccessory
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
• T o turn the laser ON move the pendulum / transport lock to the unlocked
position.
• T o 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 .
