- Switching on/off

To switch the product on, push the LOCK switch to the position. Immediately after being switched on, the product releases two laser lines from the laser beam opening 7
To switch the product off, push the LOCK switch to the position. When switched off, the pendulum unit is locked.

Use automatic levelling system

To work with automatic levelling, place the product on a level, firm surface, or fasten it with the 14 -tripod thread to the tripod.
When it is switched on, the automatic levelling system automatically corrects irregularities of ± 4^ within the self levelling area. The levelling is concluded when the laser lines stop moving and the LED indicator goes green.
If automatic levelling is not possible, e.g. because the base of the measuring tool deviates by more than 4^ from the horizontal or because the product is being freely hand-held, the LED indicator 2 will go red and the horizontal and vertical laser lines will be switched off.

Note: operation without automatic levelling will always be indicated via the red LED indicator 2

Note: if the product is agitated or its position is changed during operation, the product will automatically re-level. After re-levelling check the positions of the horizontal and vertical laser lines against reference points to avoid errors.

Using individual lines and crossed lines

When the product is performing automatic levelling and the base of the measurement device deviates from the horizontal by less than 4^ (green LED on), carefully press the H-button to turn the horizontal line on or off.
Or correspondingly press the V-butt to turn the vertical line on or off.

Crossed lines can be locked with this product:

When the product is performing automatic levelling and the base of the measurement device deviates from the horizontal by less than 4^ (green LED on) hold down the H-button 1 until the LED indicator 2 goes red. Now automatic levelling is switched off and the crossed lines are permanently switched on - even if the base of the measurement device deviates from the horizontal by more than 4^ .
You can turn this mode off again by pressing and holding down the H-button 1 until the LED indicator 2 goes green again. The automatic levelling system has been switched on again.

The crossed lines are turned off as soon as the base of the measuring tool deviates from the horizontal by more than 4^ , and the LED indicator 2 will turn red again.

- Working without the automatic levelling system

Put the LOCK switch into the position
Hold down the H-button until the red LED indicator 2 comes on. Now the product will release two laser lines from the laser beam opening 7 that are not levelled. Operation without automatic levelling will always be indicated via the red LED indicator 2

Practical guidance

Always use only the middle of the laser line for markings. The width of the line depends on the distance.

- Working with the tripod

Setup and alignment

1. Pull all the three legs [17] of the tripod apart. The plastic ring [15] which is connecting all the three cross hinges will be moved to the end of the middle column.
2. Release the blocking levers [16] and extend the legs until you get your desired height.
3. Then, fold-back all those blocking levers 16

4. Check the straight positioning by using the bubble level [11]. If the tripod is straight, the air bubble will be positioned in the centre of the circle. If necessary, readjust the length of the legs [17]

5. If additional height is necessary, loosen the locking screw [14] and extend the centre column to desired height. Once reached the desired height, tighten the locking screw [14].

6. For a horizontal alignment of the tripod flat head [18] loosen the long handle [12] by turning anti-clockwise and move the handle up or down as desired. If the air bubble of the spirit level [11] is located exactly in the middle of the circle, the tripod flat head is aligned horizontally. Then, tighten the long handle [12] by turning it clockwise.
7. If necessary, loosen the locking screw 13 to rotate the tripod flat head 18 up to 360 degree horizontally to get desired side. Once reached the desired side, tighten the locking screw 13
8. If necessary, loosen the locking screw to adjust the angle of the tripod flat head up to 90 degree vertically to get desired angle. Once reached the desired angle, tighten the locking screw

Securing the Cross Line Laser

Align 14 -thread 6 of cross line laser with the 12 screw 8 of the quick shoe and make sure to tighten the screw well by screwing the metal key 9 clockwise. The metal key 9 is on the bottom side of the quick shoe 19 .
