Intended use
The product is designed to create or check horizontal and vertical lines by means of two built-in lasers.
With the built-in optics, the product provides a horizontal and/or a vertical red laser line (can be activated
separately). The horizontal/vertical line is automatically aligned via the automatic levelling system.
It is also possible to switch off the automatic levelling system in order to use one or both of the laser lines for
a variety of other possible purposes.
The power supply is via two batteries of type AA/Mignon (not included in the delivery).
A tripod with integrated level that is included in the delivery serves as base when necessary.

be moved out of the laser beam.
• S hould your eyes feel irritated from laser radiation, do not perform any safety-related tasks
such as operating machinery, working at high altitudes or close to high-voltage components.
Do not drive any vehicles until the eye irritation has subsided.
Consult a doctor for prolonged eye irritation.

Notes on primary and secondary batteries
• Batteries/rechargeable batteries must be kept out of the reach of children.
• C heck that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries/rechargeable batteries (pay attention to plus/+
and minus/-).
• D o not leave batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around; they could be swallowed by children or pets. If
swallowed, consult a doctor immediately, it could be fatal!
• M ake sure that batteries/rechargeable batteries are not short-circuited, dismantled or thrown into a fire.
There is a risk of fire and explosion!
• Do not recharge normal, non-rechargeable batteries; there is a risk of explosion!
• O ld or flat batteries can leak liquid chemicals that may damage the device. If not used for a longer period
(e.g., in case of storage), remove the inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries.
• C ontact of leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries with the skin can cause acid burns; there-
fore, use suitable protective gloves.
• L iquids leaking from batteries are very chemically aggressive. Objects or surfaces coming into contact with
these liquids could be considerably damaged. Thus, store batteries/rechargeable batteries in a suitable
location.
• A lways replace the complete set of batteries/rechargeable batteries. Do not mix batteries/rechargeable
batteries with different charges (flat and half-discharged batteries/rechargeable batteries).
• U se either batteries or rechargeable batteries; never mix standard batteries with rechargeable batteries.
Use only batteries/rechargeable batteries of the same model and type and from the same manufacturer.
• For the correct disposal of batteries, please read the chapter "Disposal".
O peration with rechargeable batteries is possible. However, the operating time is reduced by the
lower voltage (battery = 1.5 V, rechargeable battery = 1.2 V).
T herefore, we recommend operating the product only with high-quality alkaline batteries to en-
sure long and reliable operation.
