Laserliner 081 257 DigiLevel Laser G40 Digital Electronic Level
Completely read through the operating instructions, the „Warranty and Additional Information“ booklet as well as the latest information under the internet link at the end of these instructions. Follow the instructions they contain. This document must be kept in a safe place and passed on together with the device.
Function / application
- Digital electronic spirit level with green laser technology
- Wall line laser to optically extend the measurement area
- Horizontal and vertical angle display
- The slope memory allows angles to be easily transferred
General safety instructions
- The device must only be used in accordance with its intended purpose and within the scope of the specifications.
- The measuring tools and accessories are not toys.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Modifications or changes to the device are not permitted, this will otherwise invalidate the approval and safety specifications.
- Do not expose the device to mechanical stress, extreme temperatures, moisture or significant vibration.
- The device must no longer be used if one or more of its functions fail or the battery charge is weak.
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/AC:2017
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 values in accordance with 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. Electronic devices can potentially cause hazards or interference or be subject to hazards or interference.
- The measuring accuracy may be affected when working close to high voltages or high electromagnetic alternating fields.
Green laser technology
- Devices with the PowerGreen+ technology have very bright, green high-performance diodes which provide outstanding visibility of the laser lines at great distances, on dark surfaces and in bright ambient lighting conditions.
- Approx. 6 times brighter than a typical red laser with 630 – 660 nm
Inserting batteries
- Open the battery compartment and insert batteries according to the symbols. Be sure to pay attention to polarity.

Switching on and measuring
- Make sure that the reference function is deactivated before measuring.
The DigiLevel Laser G40 / G80 can measure angles continuously to 360°.
- Switch the DigiLevel Plus on using the on/off switch (4).
- The slope angle is shown in the display (8). If slopes are measured overhead, the direction of the display adjusts automatically.
- The current slope direction is also shown by the symbol (7).
Selection of unit of measurement
- Button (5) allows the desired unit of measurement to be selected (° degrees, %, mm/m).
Calibration
- Place the unit with its measuring edge (18) down on a straight surface and mark the positions of the unit‘s ends on the underlying surface (see Fig. below). Switch the unit on (4) and press the CAL button (3) until CAL 1 will appear on the display.
- Press the CAL button (3) again. CAL 1 flashes. The display then changes to CAL 2.
- Now turn the unit around horizontally (end-for-end) by 180° such that its ends are positioned opposite where they previously were but again exactly at the underlying surface marks (reverse measurement). Again press the CAL button (3). CAL 2 flashes. Calibration is concluded when the measured value appears on the display.
- The unit is properly calibrated when it displays the same measurement value, i.e. the underlying surface‘s deviation from absolute level, in both positions (0° and 180°).
Changing the angle reference value
With button (2), it is possible to transfer angles elsewhere. To do so, set the device to the desired slope and press button (2). The display then changes to „0.0°“, „REF“ flashes on the display and the required reference angle is set. The slope can now be transferred to other objects.
Press button (2) again to deactivate the angle reference.
- The angle reference is not deactivated by switching off the device.
°C / °F / measured value
- The ambient temperature is shown in °C and °F by briefly pressing the CAL button (3). Press again to switch back to the measured value.
HOLD
- Press the HOLD button (5) to hold the current measured value on the display.
Acoustic signal
- The acoustic signal can be switched on or off with a button (6). When the angle of slope stands at 0°, 45°, 90° or the most recently stored value, this is indicated by an acoustic signal.
When working with a changed angle reference value, the acoustic signal is activated on reaching the new reference value (0°, 45°, 90° display).
Backlighting
- The backlighting is switched ON/OFF by pressing and holding the button (6).
Auto Off function
- In order to preserve the batteries, the measuring device switches off automatically if it is left idle for 3 minutes.
Information on maintenance and care
- Clean all components with a damp cloth and do not use cleaning agents, scouring agents, and solvents.
- Remove the batteries 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.
Danger: powerful magnetic fields
Powerful magnetic fields can adversely affect persons with active medical implants (e.g. pacemakers) as well as electromechanical devices (e.g. magnetic cards, mechanical clocks, precision mechanics, hard disks). With regard to the effect of powerful magnetic fields on persons, the applicable national stipulations and regulations must be complied with such as BGV B11 §14 „electromagnetic fields“ (occupational health and safety – electromagnetic fields) in the Federal Republic of Germany. To avoid interference/disruption, always keep the implant or device at a safe distance of at least 30 cm away from the magnet.
