Using The Laser - DeWalt DCE080RS Mode D'emploi

Calculate the Total Error using the following equation:
11.
GB
Total Error = (AA-A) - (BB-B)
If your Total Error measurement is greater than the Allowable
12.
Error for the corresponding Distance Between Walls in the
following table, the laser must be serviced at an authorized
service center.
L (Distance Between Walls)
15m (40')
20m (50')
25m (70')
30m (100')
Plumb Error Check
Perform this check using a wall that is no shorter than the tallest wall
for which this rotary laser will be used (Figure
Using a standard plumb bob as a reference, mark the top and

bottom of a wall. (Be sure to mark the wall and not the floor or
ceiling).
Position the rotary laser securely on the floor approximately 1m

(3") from the wall.
3. Turn the laser on and point the laser dot at the mark on the
bottom of the wall.
4. Using the or arrow on the Remote Control (Figure
), rotate the dot upwards.

If the center of the dot scans over the mark on the top of the
5.
wall, the laser is properly calibrated.

Using the Laser

Using the Laser on a Tripod
Position a tripod securely and set it to the desired height. Make
1.
sure that the tripod has a 5/8"-11 threaded screw to ensure
secure mounting of the laser unit.

Using the Laser on a Floor
The laser level can be positioned directly on the floor for leveling and
plumbing applications such as framing walls.

Make sure that the top of the tripod is roughly level.
• The laser will self-level only if the top of the tripod is within ±
5˚ of level.
• If the laser is set up too far out of level, it will beep when it
reaches the limit of its leveling range. No damage will be done
to the laser, but it will not operate in an "out of level" condition.
Attach a tripod adapter (Figure
unit (Figure ).
G 2
Place the laser with the attached adapter on the tripod and
screw the threaded knob on the tripod into the female thread on
the tripod adapter.
Turn the laser ON and allow it to self-level in horizontal (level)
mode (Figure ).
H 1
If you want to use the laser in vertical (plumb) mode, follow
these steps while the laser is still ON:
• Carefully remove the laser unit from the tripod.
• Remove the tripod adapter (Figure
the laser unit (Figure ) and attach it to the side (Figure
I 2
).

• With the laser in the vertical (plumb) position, attach the laser
unit to the tripod (Figure

• Press to make sure the laser rotates.
Adjust the rotation speed and controls, as desired (Figure
Place the laser on a relatively smooth and level surface where it
will not be disturbed or exposed to vibration.
