Safety instructions

Using class 2 lasers

Laser radiation!
Do not stare into the beam!
Class 2 laser · < 1 mW · 515 nm
EN 60825-1:2014

• Attention: Do not look into the direct or reflected beam.
• Do not point the laser beam towards persons.
• If a person‘s eyes are exposed to class 2 laser radiation, they should shut their eyes and immediately move away from the beam.
• Under no circumstances should optical instruments (magnifying glass, microscope, binoculars) be used to look at the laser beam or reflections.
• Do not use the laser at eye level (1.40 … 1.90 m)
• Reflective, specular, or shiny surfaces must be covered whilst laser devices are in operation.
• In public areas shield off the laser beam with barriers and partitions wherever possible and identify the laser area with warning signs.

Safety instructions

Dealing with electromagnetic radiation

• The measuring device complies with electromagnetic compatibility regulations and limits in accordance with the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.
• Local operating restrictions – for example, in hospitals, aircraft, petrol stations, or in the vicinity of people with pacemakers – may apply.
  There is a possibility of a dangerous impact on – or interference with –electronic devices.

When transporting, always switch off all lasers, secure the pendulum, and push the slide switch (2) to the right.

Special product features

| Automatic alignment of the device with a magnetically dampened pendulum system. The device is brought into the initial position and aligns itself autonomously.
---|---
| Transport LOCK: The device is protected with a pendulum lock during transport.
| GRX-READY technology enables line lasers to be used even in unfavorable light conditions. The laser lines pulsate at a high frequency and this can be picked up by special laser receivers over long distances.
| The anti-drift system (ADS) prevents erroneous or inaccurate measurements. How it works: continuous monitoring of the alignment of the laser is activated 20 seconds after the ADS is switched on. If the device moves due to external influences or if the laser loses its height reference, the laser switches off and the tilt LED lights up permanently. Press the tilt button twice to continue. 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 below.

The ADS does not activate the monitoring function until 20 seconds after the laser leveling procedure has been completed (set-up phase).
The tilt LED flashes every second during the set-up phase, with rapid flashing when ADS is active.

ADS function

Green laser technology

Laser modules in DLD design stand for high line quality as well as a clean and clear and therefore easily visible line image.
Unlike previous generations, they are more temperature-stable and energy efficient.
Furthermore, the human eye has a higher sensitivity to the wave range of the green laser than the red laser, for example.
This makes the green laser diode appear much brighter than the red one.
Green lasers, especially in the DLD design, thus offer advantages with regards to how visible the laser line is under unfavorable conditions.
Approx. 6 times brighter than a typical red laser with 630 – 660 nm

Use of lithium-ion rechargeable battery

• The power supply unit is to be used in enclosed spaces only; do not expose
  to moisture or rain as this may result in the risk of electric shock.

• Charge the device‘s battery completely prior to use. Then insert the battery into the device (see section 2: power supply).

• Connect the power supply unit to the mains and the connecting socket (5) (see section 2: power supply). Only use the power supply unit provided.
  Using a different power supply unit will invalidate the warranty.

• Once the battery has been inserted, the LEDs light up in sequence to indicate the battery’s charge (8). Charging is complete once all 4 LEDs are lit green.

• The battery can also be charged while using the device.

• The lower LED on the power indicator (4) flashes if the battery charge is low.

• Disconnect the power pack from the mains when the device is not in use.

| The battery may only be charged with the power supply unit provided and used only with this laser device. Any other use
may cause injury or fire.
---|---
| Make sure there are no conductive objects in the vicinity of the battery contacts. Short-circuiting these contacts can cause burn injuries or fire.
| Do not open the rechargeable battery. This could cause short circuits.
| Never use extension cables in conjunction with the battery charger, or similar accessories not approved by the manufacturer, as this may result in fire risk, the risk of an electric shock, or personal injury.

Operation with a power supply unit
The device can be used with the supplied power supply unit.
When operating the device without the battery, the 4 LEDs on the status indicator flash slowly.

Horizontal levelling
Release the transport restraint, and push the slide switch (2) to the left. The laser line appears.

The transport restraint must be released for horizontal leveling. The laser lines flash when the device is outside the automatic leveling range of 3.5°. Position the device such that it is within the leveling range.

Slope mode
Do not release the transport restraint, push the slide switch (2) to the right and switch on the laser using button 7. Sloping planes and tilts can now be measured. In this mode,  the laser line no longer aligns automatically. This is indicated by the laser line flashing.

Hand receiver mode
Optional: Working with the laser receiver GRX
Use a GRX laser receiver (optional) to carry out leveling at significant distances or when the laser line is no longer visible.
Manual receiver mode is switched on automatically.

Observe the laser receiver‘s operating instructions for line lasers.

Working without laser receivers
To work without laser receivers, switch off the manual receiver mode by pressing button 7 (hand receiver mode on/off). The laser line will now no longer pulse at a high frequency and the laser line becomes brighter.
Due to the special optics required to generate a continuous 360° laser line, the underlying technology may cause differences in brightness in different areas of the line. This may lead to different ranges in hand receiver mode.

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 meters apart.
Switch the device on (Laser line on). The best calibration results are achieved if the device is mounted on a tripod.

1. Mark point A1 on the wall.

2. Turn the device through 180° and mark point A2. You now have a horizontal reference between points A1 and A2.
   Performing the calibration check

3. Position the device as near as possible to the wall at the height of point A1.

4. Turn the device through 180° and mark point A3. The difference between points A2 and A3 is the tolerance.
   

When A2 and A3 are more than 0.2 mm / m apart, an adjustment is necessary. Contact your authorized dealer or else the UMAREX- LASER LINER Service Department.

Checking the vertical line
Position the device about 5 m from a wall. Fix a plumb bob with a line of 2.5 m length on the wall, making sure that the bob can swing freely. Switch on the device and align the vertical laser to the plumb line. The precision is within the specified tolerance if the deviation between the laser line and the plumb line is not greater than ± 1 mm.

Checking the horizontal line
Position the device about 5 m from a wall and switch on the cross laser. Mark point B on the wall. Turn the laser cross approx. 2.5 m to the right and mark point C. Check whether the horizontal line from point C is level with point B to within ± 1 mm.
Repeat the process by turning the laser to the left.

Regularly check the calibration before use, after transport, and after extended periods of storage.

Calibration
The meter needs to be calibrated and tested on a regular basis to ensure it produces accurate measurement results. We recommend carrying out calibration once a year.

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(ies) before storing it for longer periods. Store the device in a clean and dry place.
