- do not use the laser viewing
glasses as sun glasses or in
(the laser viewing glasses do
not aord complete UV protection
and reduce colour perception)

of the tripod and screw the locking
screw of the tripod tight
MAINTENANCE / SERVICE
• This tool is not intended for
professional use
• Protect the measuring tool against
moisture and direct sun light
• Do not subject the measuring
tool to extreme temperatures or
variations in temperature (the
accuracy of the measuring tool can
be impaired)
- as an example, do not leave it in
vehicles for long time
- allow the measuring tool to adjust
to the ambient temperature before
putting it into operation
• Avoid heavy impact to or falling
down of the measuring tool
- damage to the measuring tool can
impair its accuracy
- after heavy impact or shock,
compare the laser lines with
a known horizontal or vertical
reference line
• Push switch F

into locking

when transporting
the measuring tool (this locks the
levelling unit, which can be damaged
in case of intense movement)
• Keep the measuring tool clean at all
times
• Do not immerse the measuring tool in
water or other uids
• Wipe o debris using a moist and
soft cloth
• Do not use any cleaning agents or
solvents
- slide switch F to position

- if the automatic levelling function
is not possible, e.g. because the
surface on which the measuring tool
stands deviates by more than 4°
from the horizontal plane, the laser
lines ash and indicator E turns red
- if this is the case, set up the
measuring tool in a level position
and wait for the self-levelling to
take place
- as soon as the measuring tool is
once again within the self-levelling
range of ±4°, the laser lines light
up continuously and indicator E
turns o
- when not within the self-levelling
range of ±4°, working with automatic
levelling is not possible, because
it cannot be assured that the laser
lines run at a right angle to each
other
- in case of ground vibrations or
position changes during operation,
the measuring tool is automatically
levelled in again
- to avoid errors, check the position of
the horizontal and vertical laser line
with regard to the reference points
upon re-levelling
• Working without automatic levelling
- slide switch F to position

b
- push laser button C to turn on the
laser beam
- indicator E turns red continuously
in this mode
- when automatic levelling is switched
o, you can hold the measuring tool
freely in your hand or place it on an
inclined surface
APPLICATION ADVICE
• Always use the centre of the laser
line for marking (the width of the
laser line changes with the distance)
• Laser viewing glasses
