[. . . ] DO NOT stare into the laser light source. Never aim light at another person or object other than the workpiece. WARNING Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the laser beam yourself. [. . . ] Inserting/Replacing the Battery ALWAYS turn off the laser and the main power switch before removing and replacing the batteries. When inserting, pay attention to the correct polarity according to the representation on the inside of the battery compartment. To unlock the battery lid, turn the locking screw 2 in a counter-clockwise direction. To lock the battery lid, turn the locking screw 2 in clockwise direction. always replace all batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from one brand and with the identical capacity. ⷠRemove the batteries from the tool when not using it for extended periods. When storing for extended periods, the batteries can corrode and discharge themselves. 1 Plumb Beam Aperture 2 Battery cover locking screw 3 Laser Aperture Protect the tool against moisture and direct sun irradiation. 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. 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") · switch the tool off during transport. Switch off the leveling unit, which can be damaged in the case of intense movement. Place the tool either horizontally or vertically on a flat surface, or set it on a standard surveyor's tripod, using the built-in 5/8- 11 tripod mount (located on the bottom of the unit). Turn on the tool with its ON/OFF, speed adjustment knob 4. Customize the rotation speed of the laser by turning the speed adjustment knob 4 clockwise to increase the speed or counterclockwise to decrease the speed. ⷠALWAYS turn off the laser before transporting or storing the unit. rotation Mode The laser beam is dispersed throughout the level or plumb plane. Rotation mode is used under conditions where laser beam visibility is poor or nonexistent (for example, outdoors in daylight). It is not always possible to easily see a rotating laser beam. Always use the center of the laser point for marking. [. . . ] With the zero field and the scale, the offset or drop to the required height can be measured and projected at another location. The brightness intensification can be seen only when viewing, parallel to the laser beam, onto the laser target. Laser Viewing Glasses The laser viewing glasses filter out the ambient light. This makes the red light of the laser appear brighter for the eyes. [. . . ]
