Instrument Overview

1.1 E60 Laser Unit
1.2 LR1 Laser Detector

Directions of Use

2.1 Set Up
Location

Place the E60 on stable surface.
Keep the location clear of possible obstructions that could block or reflect the laser beam.
When working in a very dusty environment place the E60 up-wind so the dirt is blown away from the laser.

Setting up on a Tripod

Extend tripod legs to desired height and open far enough apart to ensure the tripod is stable
Attach the E60 securely to the tripod supplied attaching the 5/8 tripod bolt to the tripod mount at the base of the laser.
Secure the tripod on extremely windy days.

2.2 Power On/Off
Powering On

Press the power button to turn on the E60
If set within the 5° self-levelling range, the E60 will self-level, and the laser head will start to spin and emit a rotating laser beam.
If the unit is bumped or senses interference the laser head will stop spinning and re-level. Once unit has re-levelled the laser head will begin to spin again, emitting a level line
Warning – If the unit has been bumped or moved and the laser recommences spinning the instrument may not be at the original level position. Please recheck you RL/datum point.

2.3 Tilt Warning System (TWS)
Description of TWS Mode
To prevent the possibility of the E60 giving a different reading than is expected due to a knock or the laser being moved by a third party the TWS function can be used and will prevent the unit re-levelling and spinning in the event of a knock or movement.
Using TWS Mode
Press the TWS button (TWS on/off) to turn on the TWS. When activated the LED indicator will light.
When the TWS is activated on the E60, if the unit is knocked or interfered with, the laser will stop spinning and the TWS indicator light will flash. The laser will then need to be reset by the operator, before the laser will begin to spin again.
To reactivate TWS, press the TWS button again, and the laser will re-level and begin to spin again. It is advised to check RL/Datum point when unit re- levels.

Laser Accuracy

General
The Imex E60 is calibrated at point of manufacture and re checked prior to despatch to ±3mm/ 30m. It is the responsibility of the user to follow operating instructions and to periodically check the accuracy of the laser. If your E60 requires adjustment, then please contact your nearest dealer
4.1 Checking the accuracy
Accuracy check steps

Step	Description
1.	Place the E60 on a flat, level surface or tripod approximately 30m from a

wall.
2.| Align the first axis so that it is square to the wall. Allow the E60 to self- level completely and it will begin to rotate.
3.| Mark the position of the beam on the wall. (centre of the point)
4.| Very carefully rotate the laser on the tripod 180° and allow it to rotate and self-level.
5.| Mark the position of the beam on the wall. (centre of the point) if different from the original mark.
6.| Align the second axis so it is flat to the wall by carefully rotating the laser on the tripod by 90°. Allow the E60 to self-level completely.
7.| Mark the position of the beam on the wall. (centre of the point) if different from the previous marks.
8.| Very carefully rotate the laser on the tripod 180° and allow it to rotate and self level.
9.| Mark the position of the beam on the wall. (centre of the point) if different from the previous marks.

The E60 is within accuracy if the four marks are within 6mm from the centre (6mm max extreme edges) at 30m

Care and Maintenance

Transport
When transporting the E60 always ensure that it is carried in the original foam lined carry case.
Never transport the unit loose in your vehicle as the shock and vibration will affect the accuracy and could knock it out of calibration.
Storage
If the unit is to be transported overseas by sea or air it is the operator’s responsibility to ensure the correct procedures are adhered to for transporting batteries.
Ensure the unit is stored within the recommended temperatures of -10°C to +50°C After long periods of storage check the charge of the batteries
Always clean the unit before storing. Even if the unit is in regular use.
If the unit has been used in damp weather ensure it is dried prior to placing it back in its carry case. It is important to keep the carry case dry to prevent any ingress of moisture.
