Introduction

Dear customer,
Thank you for the confidence you have shown in the Fortum® brand by purchasing this product. Contact our customer and consulting centre for any questions at:
www.fortum.cz.

Manufacturer:
Madal Bal a. s., Průmyslová zóna Příluky 244, 76001 Zlín, Czech Republic. Date of issue: 18. 2. 2020

Description – the purpose of use
Self-leveling cross-line laser green 2 × 360° (2D) projects a single horizontal and/or a single vertical plane in a radius of 360°. The vertical plane is perpendicular to the horizontal plane and forms a cross at the point of intersection.

• The principle of self-leveling automatics requires that the laser device is not tilted by more than 4° from the horizontal plane; the device after settling, automatically defines the horizontal and/or vertical plane. When the position of the device is outside the self-leveling range, the laser line will flash and self-leveling will not be possible.
• The device can also be used with the self-leveling mechanism of the device locked at a tilt angle outside the automatic self-leveling range, e.g. for determining a second parallel line (fig. 4).
• Thanks to protection class IP54 protection, the device can also be used in rainy weather.
• The device has a PULSE MODE function and in this mode, it can be used with the receiver (detector) for the localization of laser lines outdoors or in large indoor areas, e.g. in halls, further details later in the text.

THE DEVICE CAN BE POWERED AS FOLLOWS:

By the rechargeable Li-ion battery inside
The device, is recharged directly in the turned-off laser device by connecting a USB power cable to the connector of the laser device, or the battery is recharged removed from the device by connecting a USB cable directly to the connector of the battery.

Insert the end of the USB cable into the connector of the removed battery or into the connection of the laser device with the battery, and then subsequently connect the end of the cable to the supplied power adapter with an output of 5V DC/1A or into a computer USB port.

WARNING
The battery may only be charged or the laser device may only be powered by a power adapter with a USB output of 5 V/1A DC or alternatively via a computer USB port. Using different batteries or chargers may result in a fire or explosion as a result of inappropriate output parameters.

WARNING
Prior to charging, carefully check the power adapter, battery, or laser device for damage and check that their connector is not damaged, deformed or clogged. In the event of damage, do not use them and arrange their replacement for a flawless part. Spare parts are described further in the text.

WARNING
Charge the battery at an ambient temperature range of +10°C to 40°C.

ATTENTION
If the battery is inserted inside the device, turn the device off before charging it. It is detrimental to the battery for the device to be running during the charging process (this reduces the lifetime of the battery).

1. Insert the charging connector of the USB cable into the USB socket on the laser device (fig. 2, position 4) or into the micro USB port of the battery.
2. Connect the USB cable to the USB port of a computer or into the USB socket of the supplied power adapter.
3. Prior to inserting the power plug of the power adapter into a live power socket, first check that the voltage in the socket is in the range 100-240 ~50/60 Hz. The power adapter can be used in this voltage range at the specified frequencies.
4. After charging, first disconnect the USB charging cable from the power supply and then from the battery or from the laser device according to the charging method options.

INDICATION OF THE CHARGING PROCESS AND CHARGING A REMOVED BATTERY

• When charging a removed battery, the LED indicator light on the USB port will flash red.
• When it is charged, the LED indicator light will be permanently lit green (alternatively intermittently flash green).

ATTENTION
Due to the integrated electronic battery protection, the battery cannot be overcharged.

INDICATION OF THE CHARGING PROCESS AND CHARGING A BATTERY THAT IS INSERTED IN THE DEVICE

• The charging process is indicated by four gradually appearing battery cells in the battery charge level indicator on the device (fig. 2, position 6).
• When the charging process is finished, all the cells in the battery symbol will be continuously lit red.

ATTENTION

• Due to the integrated electronic battery protection, the battery cannot be overcharged.
• The manufacturer reserves the right to modify the described indication of the charging process.

Powering the device

• If the laser device is powered using the battery, open the battery compartment cover (fig. 2, position 9) and insert a fully charged battery.
• If the laser device is powered using a USB cable, first remove the battery from the battery compartment and then connect the connector of the USB cable to the connector of the device (fig. 2, position 4) and then connect the USB cable to the power supply.

ATTENTION
When the device is powered using the USB cable, the battery is simultaneously recharged if inserted in the device, however, this is detrimental to the battery and we recommend removing it to ensure its long lifetime.

WARNING
For powering the device, use only the supplied Li-ion battery or the same type of USB cable and power adapter with a USB output of 5V/1A DC designed for charging battery-powered electronics (mobile phones, etc.) or the USB port of a computer. It generally applies that chargers with a USB output are designed for charging batteries of, e.g. mobile phones, will automatically set the optimal charging current for safely charging batteries, where the battery charging process is automatically stopped when it is fully charged, and thus overcharging is prevented. Using a different battery or a different type of power adapter may result in a fire or explosion as a result of inappropriate output parameters.

Operating the device

SETTING THE AUTOMATIC LEVELLING MODE

1. Stand the laser device on a stable horizontal surface or screw the device onto the thread of a tripod (not included), or screw the device on to a deflection arm of the holder, which is then attached to a magnetic surface or screwed onto a tripod.
   ATTENTION

   • It is necessary to level the tripod or holder to a horizontal position, otherwise, the self-leveling range will be exceeded and the self-leveling automatics will not function.

2. Set the toggle switch (fig. 2, position 3) to the open padlock position.
   ATTENTION

   • By performing step 2), the device is set to the automatic leveling mode and, in this state, the device must not be carried, tilted, tilted over, etc. since the self-leveling mechanism is unlocked and damage to the device could result. When carrying the device (handling it), the toggle switch must be set to the closed padlock position, in which the self-leveling mechanism is locked.

3. Repeatedly press the control button (fig. 2, position 7) to set the projection of the horizontal and/or vertical plane.

   • The principle of self-leveling automatics requires that the laser device is not tilted by more than 4° from the horizontal plane, and the device projects a line or a plane after settling, auto-matically defining the horizontal or vertical (plane lines). When the position of the device is outside the self-leveling range, the laser line will flash and self-leveling will not be possible.

ACTIVATING/DEACTIVATING THE PULSE MODE
Set the required laser line projection and then hold down the activate/deactivate pulse mode button (fig. 2, position 5). If the indicator light above the button is lit, the device is in pulse mode and it is possible to use it with the laser line receiver (detector). If this function is not activated, the receiver (detector) does not detect the laser line of the self- leveling laser device. For the compatibility of the self-leveling laser device with the receiver, the acceptable technical specifications for the laser must be met, which must be specified in the technical specifications of the receiver. This device is compatible with receivers of the Extol® Premium 8823390 brand. Prior to purchasing a receiver of a different brand available on the market, first, verify that it is compatible with this laser device. To deactivate the pulse mode, hold down the button (fig. 2, position 5) so that the indicator light turns off.

TURNING OFF THE DEVICE
Turn off the device by setting the toggle switch (fig. 2, position 3) to the closed padlock position and holding down the control button (fig. 3, position 6).

WARNING
Do not carry, tilt, etc. the device if its toggle switch (fig. 2, position 3) is not in the closed padlock posi-tion, otherwise, there is a risk of damaging the self-leveling mechanism in the device and eyes being impacted by the laser beam.

SETTING THE MODE WITHOUT AUTOMATIC SELF-LEVELLING
The device can also be used with the self-leveling mechanism of the device locked at a tilt angle outside the automatic self-leveling range, e.g. for determining a second parallel line (fig. 4).

1. Stand the laser device on a stable horizontal surface or screw the device on to the thread of a tripod (not included), or screw the device on to a deflection arm of the holder, which is then attached to a magnetic surface or screwed on to a tripod.
2. Set the toggle switch (fig. 2, position 3) to the closed padlock position.
3. Repeatedly press the control button (fig. 2, position 7) to set the projection of the horizontal and/or vertical plane.
4. The device can be tilted outside the automatic leveling range.

Note:
In this mode, the laser lines will regularly flash in 5- 6-second intervals.

ATTENTION
Using the device with the self-leveling mechanism locked may result in less accurate measurements and is not a substitute for measurement with the use of the self-leveling automatics.

ACTIVATING PULSE MODE IN THE MODE WITHOUT LEVELLING AUTOMATICS

1. Set the toggle switch (fig. 2, position 3) to the open padlock position.
2. Use the control button (fig. 2, position 7) to set the required projection of the horizontal and/or vertical plane.
3. Hold down the pulse activation button (fig. 2, posi-tion 5). If the pulse mode function is activated, the indicator light above the button is lit.
4. As the last step, set the toggle switch (fig. 2, posi-tion 3) to the closed padlock position. The lines will flash in regular intervals of approx. 5-6 seconds.

TURNING OFF THE DEVICE

• Turn off the device by setting the toggle switch (fig. 2, position 3) to the closed padlock position and holding down the control button (fig. 2, position 7).

Maintaining the device and spare parts
