Initial Operation
Protect the tool against
!
WARNING
moisture and direct sun
irradiation.
Do not subject the tool to extreme
temperatures or variations in temperature.
As an example, do not leave it in vehicles for
longer periods. In case of large variations in
temperature, allow the tool to adjust to the
ambient temperature before putting it into
operation. In case of extreme temperatures or
variations in temperature, the accuracy of the
tool can be impaired.
It is the user's responsibility to periodically
check the accuracy of the measuring tool
as work progresses. Always check the
accuracy of the measuring tool after it
has been dropped or subject to extreme
temperatures and temperature variations.
Avoid heavy impact or and prevent the
tool from falling. After heavy exterior impact
on the tool, an accuracy check should always
be carried out before continuing to work (see
"Leveling Accuracy").
Setting Up the Tool
Horizontal position
Set up the laser tool on a sturdy surface in the
horizontal or vertical position; mount it on a
tripod

Due to the high leveling accuracy, the laser
tool reacts sensitively to ground vibrations and
position changes. Therefore, pay attention
that the position of the laser tool is stable in
order to avoid operational interruptions due to
re-leveling.
Turning on the Tool

the laser beam is steady. After the leveling is
completed, the laser tool automatically starts in
rotational operation.
With the operating mode buttons
the operating modes can already be specified
during leveling in (see "Operating Modes, page

operating mode upon completion of leveling in.

To save the batteries, the laser tool is
automatically switched off when not within the
self-leveling range for more than 2 h or when
the shock warning is actuated for more than

Working Advice
Always use the center of the laser point for
marking. The size of the laser point changes with
