Information on maintenance and care
Clean all components with a damp cloth and do not use cleaning agents,
scouring agents, or solvents. Remove the battery pack before storing for
longer periods. Store the device in a clean and dry place.
Calibration
The meter needs to be calibrated on a regular basis to ensure it produces
accurate measurement results. We recommend carrying out calibration once a
year. Contact your distributor or the UMAREX-LASER LINER service department.
Special product features and functions
The rotary laser aligns itself automatically. It is set to the required
initial position (to within an operating angle of ± 4°) and the automatic
system then performs the necessary fine adjustment, with three electronic
measurement sensors detecting the X, Y and Z axes.
The anti-drift system (ADS) prevents erroneous or inaccurate measurements. How it works: continuous monitoring of the alignment of the laser is activated 30 seconds after the ADS is switched on. If the device moves due to the influence of external factors or the laser lose its height reference, the laser will come to a standstill. Additionally, the laser flashes, and the tilt LED is lit continuously. To continue working, press the tilt button again or switch the device off and then on again. Erroneous and inaccurate measurements are thus prevented simply and reliably.
The ADS is not active following the switch-on. Once the device has been set up, press the tilt button to activate the ADS, enabling you to protect the laser from changes in position caused by the device being disturbed by external factors. The tilt LED flashes to indicate that the ADS function is active; see the diagram.
The ADS does not activate the monitoring function until 30 seconds after the laser leveling procedure has been completed (set-up phase). A long flash of tilt LED at 1-second intervals during the set-up phase and short flash of LED when ADS is active.
ADS function
Anti-shake function: The electronic permanently level the units even if they
are moving. For quick levelling, on vibrating surfaces and windy weather.
Transport LOCK: The device is protected by a special motor brake during
transport.
The device is characterized by specific protection against dust and rain.
Space grids: These show the laser planes and functions.
auto: Automatic alignment/man: Manual alignment

Horizontal leveling and vertical leveling
- Horizontal: Position the device on a level surface or on a tripod.
- Vertical: Set the unit on its side feet. The operator panel should be at the top.
- Press the “ON/OFF” switch
- The device levels itself automatically to within a range of ± 4°. During the set-up phase, the laser flashes, and the prism head remains stationary. When leveling is complete, the laser lights up continuously and rotates at maximum speed. Refer also to the sections about “Sensor Automatic” and “ADS Tilt”.
If the device has been placed on a surface with too much of a slope (more than 4°), there is a warning sound, the prism head remains stationary and the laser starts to flash. The device must then be placed on a more even surface.
Positioning the vertical laser level
In vertical mode, the laser level can be positioned exactly. “Sensor
Automatic” remains active and levels to the vertical laser level. Refer to the
illustration below.
A signal sounds when the maximum adjustment range of 4° is reached.
Slope function up to 4° – horizontal
This function deactivates the automatic sensor. Press the AUTO/MAN button
to activate the function. The positioning buttons enable motorized tilt
adjustment. The X- and Y-axes can be independently adjusted. Press the TILT
button to change to the Y-axis. Refer to the illustrations below.
Slope function up to 4° – vertical
When the maximum tilt range of 4° is reached, a warning signal sounds, the prism head stops, and the laser flashes. In this case, reduce the slope angle.
Slope function > 4°
Steeper slopes can be set using the angle plate, which is available as an
optional extra. TIP: Allow the device to align itself automatically and set
the angle plate to the zero position. Then press the auto/man button to switch
the automatic sensor off. Finally, incline the device to the angle you
require.

Preparing the calibration check
It is possible for you to check the calibration of the laser. To do this,
position the device midway between 2 walls, which must be at least 5 metres
apart. Switch the device on. The best calibration results are achieved if the
device is mounted on a tripod. IMPORTANT: The automatic sensor must be active
(auto/man LED is off).
- Mark point A1 on the wall.
- Turn the device through 180° and mark point A2. You now have a horizontal reference between points A1 and A2.
Performing the calibration check - Position the device as near as possible to the wall at the height of point A1. Now adjust the device in the X axis.
- Turn the device through 180° and mark point A3. The difference between points A2 and A3 is the tolerance for the X axis.
- To check the Y and Z axis, repeat steps 3 and 4.
If points A2 and A3 are more than ± 0,075 mm / m apart on either the X, Y or Z axis, the device is in need of adjustment. Contact your authorized dealer or else the UMAREX-LASER LINER Service Department.
Adjustment mode
-
Take the alignment of the rotary laser into account when performing adjustment work. Always adjust all the axes.
-
Switch the device to adjustment mode:
Switch off the rotary laser. Simultaneously press the ON/OFF button and the auto/man button until the auto/man LED flashes rapidly. You can then release both buttons.
The X-axis is set first (X LED flashes) in horizontal mode (X/Y-axis). You can switch between X and Y-axis with the TILT button on the rotary laser (Y LED flashes). Only the Z LED flashes in vertical mode (Z-axis). -
Correcting the adjustment:
Use the positioning buttons on the rotary laser to move the laser from its current position to the level of the reference point A2. The laser only changes its position by pressing the buttons several times.
Cancel: Switch the rotary laser off (via the ON/OFF button) to reject all
adjustment settings and restore the previous status.
Save: The new adjustment settings are saved by pressing the positioning button
(rotate to the right).
Regularly check the adjustment before use, after transport, and after extended periods of storage. Always make sure to control all axes.
