Avoid direct eye exposure. The laser beam can cause severe eye damage and/or blindness.. Do not stare into the laser beam or direct it towards other people unnecessarily.
Caution! The laser emitting product may be behind you in some applications. Be careful when facing the product.
WARNING:
Do not operate the laser around children or allow children to operate the laser. The refl ective surface could refl ect the beam back at the operator or other persons.
WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments, or the performance of procedures other than those specifi ed in the manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure. When the laser is brought into a warm environment from very cold conditions, or vice versa, allow it to come to the surrounding temperature before use. Always store the cross laser indoors, avoid substantial knocks, continuous vibration or extreme temperatures. Always keep the tool away from dust, liquids and high humidity. These may damage internal components or aff ect accuracy. If laser radiation hits your eye, you must close your eyes and immediately turn your head away from the beam. Do not position the laser beam so that it unintentionally blinds you or others. Do not look into a laser beam using magnifying optical devices such as binoculars or a telescope, as this will increase the level of eye injury. If you use laser goggles to enhance the visibility of the laser beam, please notice that they will not protect your eyes against laser radiation. Do not remove or deface warning labels on the laser level. Do not disassemble the laser level, laser radiation can cause serious eye injury. When not in use, turn off the power, engage the pendulum lock and place the laser in its carrying pouch. Make sure the pendulum lock mechanism is engaged before transporting the laser.
Note: If the pendulum lock mechanism is not engaged before transportation, internal mechanical damage may occur. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or solutions. Use only a clean, soft cloth for cleaning. Avoid heavy impact to or dropping of the laser. The accuracy of the laser should be checked before use if it has been dropped or subjected to other mechanical stresses. Any repair required on this laser product should be performed only by authorised service personnel. Do not operate the product in explosion hazardous areas or in aggressive environments. If the laser level is not in use for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the battery compartment. This will prevent batteries from leaking and corrosion damage.

MAINTENANCE

Wipe the aperture lens and the body of the cross laser with a clean soft cloth. Do not use solvents. Although the cross laser is dust and dirt resistant to a certain degree, do not store in dusty places as long term exposure may damage internal moving parts. If the cross laser is exposed to water, dry the laser level before returning it to the carrying case to prevent corrosion damage.

OVERVIEW

LOW BATTERY INDICATION (CLR215, CLG220)

When the voltage is low, the brightness of the laser is reduced and the low battery indication fl ashes at a frequency once every 0.5 seconds. From now on it is still possible to continue the work. It automatically shuts down when the voltage is to low.

CHANGE BATTERIES

Change the batteries when the laser beams begin to dim. If the cross laser is not in use for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the battery compartment. This will prevent batteries from leaking and corrosion damage.

MAGNETIC WALL MOUNT

Use the magnetic wall mount to fi x the laser to a wall or metallic structures or similar.

GREEN TARGET PLATE (CLG220-K ONLY)

Use a green target plate to improve visibility of the laser beam in unfavorable conditions and greater distances.

CEILING CLAMP (CLG220-K ONLY)

Use the wall mount additionally to fix the laser magnetically to the ceiling kit. Use the ceiling kit to clamp the laser to ceiling channels, racks…

WORKING IN SELF-LEVELING MODE

In self-leveling mode the cross laser will level itself in a ±3° range and can project a horizontal beam, a vertical beam (CLR215 only) or both beams simultaneously.

1. Place the cross laser on a solid fl at vibration free surface or on a tripod.
2. Slide locking switch to the ON position.
3. The cross laser will generate 2 laser beams.
   •  vertical beam forward
   • horizontal beam forward
   • The cross laser will generate forward cross beam when all beams are activated.
4. Choose the beams that you want to work with by pushing the button. Switch ON or OFF the beam by pressing the button more than 1 second
5. If the initial level of the cross laser is beyond ± 3° and the self-leveling mode is activated, the laser beams will fl ash In this case reposition the cross laser.
6. Before moving the cross laser, slide the locking switch the OFF position. This will lock the pendulum and protect your cross laser.

WORKING IN MANUAL MODE

In manual mode the cross lasers self-leveling mechanism is disabled and the laser lines can be set at any slope required.

1. Place the cross laser on a solid fl at vibration free surface or on a tripod.
2. Long press the I/O button (do not slide the locking switch!). The operation LED indicator will light up.
3. Same as in the self-leveling mode, the cross laser will generate 2 laser beams, but the laser beams are interrupted every 3 seconds.
4. Choose the beams that you want to work with by pushing operation push button
5. Tilt the laser using a tripod and adjust to the desired angle and height.
6. For CLR215, long press the I/O button to turn off the manual mode. For CLG220, short press the I/O button to turn off the manual mode. It is possible to switch directly to the self-leveling mode by sliding the locking switch to ON position.

ACCURACY CHECK

This cross laser left the factory fully calibrated. AEG recommends the user to check the accuracy of the laser periodically, especially if the unit falls or is mishandled.
If the maximum deviation of the laser is exceeded in one of the accuracy checks, please contact one of our AEG service agents (see our list of guarantee/service addresses).

1. Checking the height accuracy of the horizontal beam.
2. Checking the leveling accuracy of the horizontal beam.
3. Checking the leveling accuracy of the vertical beam.

Before checking the laser accuracy, after mounting the laser on the tripod, check the leveling of the tripod.

CHECKING THE HEIGHT ACCURACY OF THE HORIZONTAL BEAM (UP AND DOWN

DEVIATION)

1. Set up the laser on a tripod or on a fl at surface between two walls A and B, approximately 5 meters apart.
2. Position the laser level approximately 0.5 meter from wall A.
3. Switch ON the self-leveling mode and press the button to project the horizontal and the vertical cross beams towards wall A.
4. Mark the center of the cross beams on the wall as a1.
5.  Turn the laser 180° towards wall B and mark the center of the cross beams as b1 on the wall.
6. Move the laser level towards wall B and position it approximately 0.5 meter from wall B.
7. Mark on wall B the center of the cross beams as b2. If the b1 & b2 is not overlapping, adjust the tripod height to make sure b1& b2 overlapping. 
8. Turn the laser 180° towards wall A, and mark on the wall the center of the cross beams as a2.
9. Measure the distances:
   • Δa= |a2 – a1|
   • Δb= |b1- b2|
10. The diff erence | Δa – Δb| should be no more than 3 mm for CLR215 or 4 mm for CLG220.

CHECKING THE LEVEL ACCURACY OF THE HORIZONTAL BEAM (SIDE TO SIDE

INCLINATION)

For this check, a free surface of approx. 5 x 5 meters is required.

1. Set up the laser on a tripod or on a solid surface between two walls A and B, approximately 5 meters apart.
2. Position the laser level approximately 2.5 meters from the center of the room.
3. Switch ON the self-leveling mode and press the button to project the horizontal line towards wall A and B.
4. Mark the center of the laser line point a1 on wall A and point b1 on wall B.
5. Move the laser level approximately 5 meters away and turn the laser 180° towards wall A and B.
6. Mark the center of the laser line point a2 on wall A and point b2 on wall B.
7. Measure the distances:
   • Δa= |a2- a1|
   • Δb= |b1- b2|
8.  The diff erence | Δa – Δb| should be no more than 3 mm for CLR215 4 mm for CLG220

CHECKING THE LEVEL ACCURACY OF THE VERTICAL BEAM

1. Hang an approximately 4 m plumb line on a wall.
2. After the plumb line has settled, mark point a1 on the wall, behind the plumb line, near the plumb cone.
3.  Set up the cross laser on a tripod or on a fl at surface in front of the wall at a distance of approximately 2 m.
4. Switch ON the self-leveling mode, and press the button to project the vertical beam towards the plumb line.
5. Turn the laser so that the vertical beam will merge with the plumb line below the hanging point.
6. Mark point a2 on the wall, in the middle of the vertical beam at the same height as a1.
7. The distance between a1 and a2, should be no more than 1.5 mm for CLR215 1.6 mm for CLG220.
