Before use Inserting/replacing the batteries Vacuum pump ♦ To insert batteries, open the battery compart- ment by turning the cover anticlockwise and removing it. ♦ Insert the supplied batteries or two equivalent AA batteries. Observe correct polarity when inserting batteries to avoid damage! ♦ Replace the cover and close it by turning it in a clockwise direction until it clicks firmly into place. Line laser ♦ To insert the batteries, first remove the appli- ance from the protective cover

♦ Open the battery compartment cover on the underside of the line laser and remove it. ♦ Insert the supplied button cells or three equiva- lent type LR44 button cells. Observe correct polarity when inserting batteries to avoid dam- age. ♦ Replace the battery compartment cover and close it so that it clicks firmly into place. Using the protective cover/wall bracket The protective cover is intended primarily to protect the soft seals from damage when the appliance is not in use. ♦ After use, always replace the protective cover

♦ You can attach the protective cover to a pre- determined attachment point on the wall with a screw and use it as a wall bracket.■ 6 

PLBS 2 A1 Getting started ■ After inserting the batteries, the appliance is ready for use. ■ Remove the protective cover/wall bracket from the appliance. ■ Fully grip the appliance with one or, ideally, both hands. The appliance is suitable for either hand. Operation CAUTION! ► Use the appliance only for its intended use. ► Check the appliance for damage before use. Do not use the appliance if its operational safety cannot be guaranteed. Switching the line laser on and off ♦ To switch the line laser on and off, press the ON/OFF switch . ■ To make the levels easier to read, these are illuminated. ♦ Switch the laser off again by pressing the ON/OFF switch

Aligning the line laser ♦ Align the appliance using the horizontal and vertical levels by changing the tilt angle of the appliance. Centre the air bubble in one of the levels between the two marking lines. ♦ For diagonal alignment of the laser, mark two points in the desired alignment and line up the laser with these markings. ♦ Switch on the vacuum pump (see section Appliance suction function). ♦ To use the line laser without the suction func- tion, you can release it from the mount by pulling it in a horizontal direction. ♦ Replace the line laser on the guide and push it in the direction of the battery compartment until it clicks audibly into place. Using the drill dust collector ♦ Mark the spot on the wall where you want to drill the holes. ♦ Push the loaded drill through the opening on the protective plate until it comes out of the other side of the seal . ♦ Put the tip of the drill bit onto the marking. ♦ Hold the drill vertically to the wall. ♦ Push the drill dust collector up against the wall so that the seals lie up against the wall. NOTE ► To ensure that the drill dust collector collects the dusts optimally, it should always be aligned vertically. ♦ Switch on the vacuum pump (see section Appliance suction function). ♦ Hold the drill firmly in both hands and follow the manufacturer's operating and safety instructions. ♦ Use only suitable drills up to a max. 10 mm in diameter. ♦ Wear your personal protective equipment (safety goggles)! ♦ Pull the drill out of the drill dust collector before you switch off the vacuum pump. Emptying the drill dust collector ♦ Point the drill dust collector downwards. Press the release buttons together on both sides between your thumb and index finger and swing the cover of the drill dust collector upwards. ♦ Empty the drill dust collector .GB

 7 ■ PLBS 2 A1 ♦ Place the outer tab of the cover back on the centring rib of the cover. ♦ Swing the cover back until the release buttons click audibly into place on both sides. ♦ Ensure that the cover is firmly in place on the drill dust collector. This is the only way to pre- vent dust escaping. Appliance suction function ♦ After you have aligned the laser or put the drill dust collector/drill against the wall, switch on the vacuum pump at the switch . ♦ Push the appliance briefly firmly against the wall. After a short time, the appliance will be firmly sucked against the wall. ♦ Ensure that the seal of the appliance is fully against the wall. ♦ Check that the appliance stays in place by trying gently to pull it off or slide it across the surface. ♦ Leave the vacuum pump switched on the whole time you are working with the line laser and/or the drill dust collector. Otherwise, the appliance will not be able to maintain a sufficient vacuum and the appliance could come off the wall. ♦ Do not use the appliance for overhead work. ♦ If the appliance does not remain on the wall, it may be because the surface structure of the wall is simply too rough, and the appliance is unable to generate a sufficient vacuum. In this case, you will need a second person to hold the appliance in place. ♦ Ensure that the seal is not damaged or cut by rough surfaces, edges or corners. Detaching the appliance ♦ First, finish your work with the line laser and/ or the drill and then remove the drill from the appliance. ♦ Hold the appliance firmly in place to prevent it from falling down. ♦ Switch off the vacuum pump at the switch and press the vacuum button . ♦ Remove the appliance from the surface. ♦ Use the protective cover to protect the appli- ance and the seals . Troubleshooting – The laser is not working Battery is dead > replace battery. – Appliance does not grip onto the surface Battery is dead or too weak > replace battery. Seal is damaged > Hold the appliance by hand. Wall structure is too rough > Hold the appli- ance by hand.■ 8
