• Caution – The use of other operating or adjusting equipment or the application of other processing methods than those mentioned here can lead to dangerous radiation exposure.

• The measuring tool is provided with a warning label
  

• If the text of the warning label is not in your national language, stick the provided warning label in your national language over it before operating for the first time.

•  If laser radiation strikes your eye, you must deliberately close your eyes and immediately turn your head away from the beam.

• Do not make any modifications to the laser equipment.

• Do not use the laser viewing glasses as safety goggles. The laser viewing glasses are used for improved visualisation of the laser beam, but they do not protect against laser radiation.

• Do not use the laser viewing glasses as sunglasses or in traffic. The laser viewing glasses do not afford complete UV protection and reduce color perception.

• Has the measuring tool been repaired only through qualified specialists using original spare parts? This ensures that the safety of the measuring tool is maintained.

• Do not allow children to use the laser measuring tool without supervision. They could unintentionally blind other persons or themselves.

Laser line projection modes
Your self-leveling 360° line laser level has three laser-projection modes. To select a specific laser-projection mode, press the mode button until you reach the desired projection mode. This laser tool defaults to the cross-hair pattern mode when it is turned on. To choose a projection mode, press the mode button:

1. Press the button once to select two 360° line laser-pattern (horizontal and vertical)
2. Press the button twice to select the horizontal 360° line laser.
3. Press the button three times to select the vertical 360° line laser.

Using your self-leveling 360° line laser level
Your self-leveling 360° line laser level has two working modes self-leveling mode and lock (manual) mode.

Self-leveling mode
In this mode, the tool will level itself if it is within ±4° of horizontal.

1. Place the self-leveling 360° line laser level on a flat, smooth surface that is within ±4° of horizontal.
2. Turn the tool on by sliding the power switch to the up position. The self-leveling 360° line laser level will automatically level within 5 seconds. The LED indicator will shine green.
3. Press the button until the desired laser projection mode is achieved and the laser line is projected from the laser aperture.
4. When the self-leveling 360° line laser is out of leveling the LED will turn red and the laser line will blink.
5. To turn off the laser lines, slide the switch to the down position.

WARNING!
When turning the laser on, always be aware of protecting your eyes and the eyes of those around you. Never point the laser light at anyone’s face, including your own.

Lock mode
This mode cannot be used to perform horizontal or vertical leveling, because the laser lines are no longer self-balancing. in this mode, the LED indicator will always shine red.

1. Keep the power switch off, press the mode button to turn on the laser. The laser lines are now locked, are no longer self-leveling.
2. Press the mode button repeatedly to change the laser-projection mode.
3. Slope your self-leveling 360° line laser level to project a straight line for reference. In this mode, the laser lines are projected continuously and will not blink, even if the slope angle exceeds 4°.
4. To turn the laser off, press the mode button repeatedly until the laser shuts off.

Applications

Your self-leveling 360° line laser level can be hand-held for point marking and simple alignment by sight, or it can be used to make a “chalk line” using the lock mode. It is ideal  for the following applications:

b) altitude up to 2000m;
c) maximum relative humidity 80% for temperatures up to 31 ° C decreasing linearly to 50% relative humidity at 40° C;
d) applicable POLLUTION DEGREE of the intended environment (POLLUTION DEGREE 2 in most cases)

Working Advice

working with the Tripod (see figure A)
A tripod 10 offers a stable, height-adjustable measuring support.
Place the measuring tool via the tripod mount 9 on the 1/4″ male thread of the tripod and screw the locking screw of the tripod tight.

Holding laterally against a wall or object (see figure B)
For quick checking of heights, the measuring tool can be held by the contact surfaces 7 laterally against a vertical wall, cabinets, etc. take care to hold the measuring tool straightly and calmly.

Laser Viewing Glasses (Accessory)
The laser viewing glasses filter out the ambient light. This makes the green light of the laser appear brighter for the eyes.

• Do not use the laser viewing glasses as safety goggles.
  The laser viewing glasses are used for improved visualisation of the laser beam, but they do not protect against laser radiation.

• Do not use the laser viewing glasses as sunglasses or in traffic.
  The laser viewing glasses do not afford complete UV protection and reduce color perception.
