6. Operating Instructions

To get the most out of your ROTARY 500 HV Servo, please adhere carefully to the following instructions.

NOTE: Avoid setting up the laser near heavy machinery or sources of vibration that may adversely affect the leveling of the Laser.

Horizontal Plane (Automatic Mode)

Place the instrument on firm and dry ground or on a standard 5/8" tripod (not included) or ceiling to floor leveling pole (not included) or wall mount accessory (not included).

1. Set up the instrument approximately level; the instrument can compensate for up to ±5^ from the horizontal plane.
2. Press the Power key. The Power Indicator will light up. If the instru ment is set up outside the ±5^ limit the Manual Indicator will blink, the laser beams with not be projected and rotation will not begin.
   Please turn off the instrument and set up again.
3. Verify that the instrument is in automatic mode – the Manual Indicator must be unlit.
4. The instrument is ready for work when the Power Indicator is lit, the Manual Indicator has stopped blinking, and the laser beams are projected. The instrument is now level and the laser head will rotate clockwise at 600 rpm.
5. To make the beam more visible, change the rotating speed using the speed key, or use the Laser Detector to detect the laser beam (see Laser Detector).
6. Change the rotation direction by pressing the Clockwise Rotation or Counterclockwise Rotation key.

ROTARY 500 HV Servo

1. Press the Auto-Drift key to automatically stop the laser beams while the unit is self-leveling. The laser beams will automatically restart when the unit is leveled.
2. You can use the remote control to control the instrument (see Using the Remote Control). This option is very useful for trench work or when laying concrete.
3. To turn the instrument off, press the Power key.

Vertical Plane (Automatic Mode)

The instrument can be set up to create a vertical laser line to check the vertical alignment of a wall or fence pole.

1. Position the instrument on its side on the ground, on any stable surface or on a standard 5/8" tripod (not included). Set up the instrument approximately level by adjusting the legs or the tripod; the instrument can compensate for a variance of up to ±5^ from the vertical plane.
2. Press the Power key. The Power Indicator will light up. If the instrument is set up outside the ±5^ limit the Manual Indicator will blink, the laser beams with not be projected and rotation will not begin. Please turn off the instrument and set up again.
3. Verify that the instrument is in automatic mode – the Manual Indicator must be unlit.
4. The instrument is ready for work when the Power Indicator is lit, the Manual Indicator has stopped blinking, and the laser beams are projected. The instrument is now level and the laser head will rotate clockwise at 600 rpm.
5. To make the beam more visible, change the rotating speed using the speed key, or use the Laser Detector to detect the laser beam (see Laser Detector).

Plumb Down

The Plumb Down feature enables you to center the instrument onto a selected point. It is much easier to use this feature if you set up the instrument on a tripod with a hollow connecting bolt.

1. Set up the instrument on a tripod.
2. Move the tripod and instrument so that they are approximately above the selected point.
3. Level the instrument as in Horizontal Setup.
4. Press the Power key to turn the instrument.
5. Move the Plumb Down beam onto the selected point on the ground by raising and lowering the tripod legs.
6. Level the instrument again, and adjust the Plumb Down beam with the tripod legs as in step 5.
7. Repeat step 6 until the Plumb Down beam is sufficiently accurate for your purposes.
8. If you wish to transfer a point to the ceiling, use the Plumb Up beam once the instrument is accurately centered.

Changing Rotation Speed

The laser beam is more visible when the rotating speed is slower. Change the speed of the rotating laser head by pressing the Speed key. The default option is 600 rpm. Pressing the key moves a step forward in the speed cycle (600-0-60-120-300-600-rpm).

ROTARY 500 HV Servo

Scan Function

The Scan function is used to limit the area covered by the laser beam, for safety reasons or to improve visibility and sensitivity. A smaller scan segment will be more visible than a larger one. The default mode is 360^ rotation, which provides a horizontal or inclined beam throughout the work area or room. The Scan Key changes the mode from 360^ rotation to 360^-180^-90^-45^-10^ -rotation.

1. Press the Scan Key to change the scan width.
2. The scan mark can be accurately positioned using the Clockwise and Counterclockwise Rotation keys.
   Change the direction of rotation if there is an obstruction creating a “dead” area that no laser beam can reach.

Laser Detector

ROTARY 500 HV Servo is effective at 1640 ft (500 m) diameter when used together with the Laser

Use the Laser Detector when it is hard to see the laser beam, such as outdoors or in bright rooms. Attach the Laser Detector to a rod if the laser unit is positioned above head height.
