BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

• Recharge only with the charger specied by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of re when used with another battery pack.

• Use power tools only with specically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and re.

• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a re.

• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact ac- cidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam- aged or modied. Damaged or modied batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in re, explosion or risk of injury.

• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re or excessive temperature. Exposure to re or tem- perature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.

• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specied in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specied range may damage the battery and increase the risk of re.

• Store your battery and tool in a cool, dry place. Do not store battery where temperatures may exceed 120°F (50°C) such as in direct sunlight, a vehicle or metal building during the summer.

• Watch out for erroneous results if the tool is defective or if it has been dropped, misused or modied.

• Do not dispose of tool or batteries together with household waste material! Tool and batteries that have reached the end of their life must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.

• Ensure tool magnets are securely mounted to a metal surface. Magnet strength may not hold on thin metal surfaces, causing the tool to fall.

ON Turns ON the laser but does not unlock the pendulum (self leveling is disabled). The laser line will ash once every 8 seconds to indicate that the projected line are not level. NOTE: The ON mode disables self- leveling and therefore is not intended for projecting a level line. OFF Turns OFF the laser and locks the pen- dulum. When not in use, turn o󰀨 the tool and store the Laser Level in the protective carrying case. Using the Laser Level

1. For best results, place the tool on a work surface

• level (within 4 degrees of true level)

• 90° to the work area

2. Turn on the tool.

3. The tool will self-level when placed on surfaces

within 4 degrees of true level when dial is unlocked and on.

4. The tool is ready once the emitted line are continu-

ous and no longer moving on the work surface.

5. If the tool cannot achieve a level state (i.e., the

work surface is > 4 degrees o󰀨 true level), the laser line will ash rapidly (3 ashes per second). Relocate or adjust the work surface. Troubleshooting If the tool does not turn on:

• Ensure battery is installed properly. Fuel gauge should indicate remaining charge when correctly installed.

• Ensure battery is charged.

• Ensure the tool's internal temperature is within speci- ed operating ranges. If stored in excessive heat or cold, allow at least 2 hours to acclimate to ambient temperature before turning on the tool. If problem persists, please contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for support.

ACCURACY FIELD CHECK

NOTICE Perform the Accuracy Field Check procedure immediately upon unboxing of each new Laser Level and before exposure to jobsite conditions. See "Accuracy Field Check" for information. Should any deviation from listed product accuracy be found, please con- tact a MILWAUKEE service facility. Failure to do so could result in rejection of warranty claim. Inuences on Accuracy Ambient temperature gradients can impact laser accuracy. For accurate and repeatable results, the following procedure should be conducted with the laser elevated o󰀨 the ground and placed in the center of the working area. Abusive treatment of the Laser Level, such as exces- sive impacts from drop, can also lead to deviations in product accuracy. Therefore, it is recommended to conduct the Field Check procedure after any impact or before complet- ing any critical jobs. Fuel Gauge The fuel gauge is displayed continuously when the tool is ON. When less than 7% of charge is left, 1 light continuous ashing on the fuel gauge until the tool shut o󰀨.. To signal the end of charge, 1 light on the fuel gauge will ash 4 times and the tool will not run. Charge the battery pack. If the tool becomes too hot, the fuel gauge lights will ash and the tool will not run. Allow the tool to cool down. WARNING To reduce the risk of injury or dam- age, securely mount/attach the laser before starting an operation. Injury/damage may occur if the laser falls. Mounting/Adjusting the Laser Level The pivot bracket can be used to mount the laser level in multiple ways:

• Use the embedded magnets to secure the laser level to steel studs, steel beams, etc.

• Use the keyhole slot to hang the laser level on the wall with a nail or screw.

• Set the laser level on a at surface.

• Position the laser and/or wall mount on a stable surface.

• Use the 1/4"-20 or 5/8"-11 threaded insert to mount on a tripod. Lanyard Attachments Use MILWAUKEE Lanyards to help reduce the risks associated with dropped tools. Complies with ANSI/ ISEA 121:2018.

1. Follow instructions pro-

vided with tool lanyard.

2. The lanyard will create

a secure anchor point for use. WARNING! Do not exceed maximum capacity marked on the lanyard label. Exceeding maximum capacity may result in serious injury or death. OPERATION WARNING To reduce the risk of injury or tem- porary e󰀨ects on vision, do not look directly into the laser when it is on. CAUTION Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specied herein may result in hazard- ous radiation exposure. NOTICE Perform the Accuracy Field Check procedure immediately upon unboxing of each new Laser Level and before exposure to jobsite conditions. See "Accuracy Field Check" for information. Turning On/O󰀨 To turn on the laser and unlock the pendulum, rotate the On/O󰀨 dial to the desired position. The remain- ing battery life will be displayed. WARNING! Do not look directly into laser apertures. Horizontal level line will immediately be emitted from aperture in the laser housing.5 Horizontal Height AccuracyA free measuring distance of approximately 66' on a rm surface between two walls or structures A and B is required for this check.It is also suggested to mount the Laser Level to a Tripod for easy adjustment. 1. Securely mount the tool within 1' of wall A. 66' A B 2. Turn the tool to ON.3. Direct the front laser beam against the nearest wall A and allow to self-level. Mark the center of the horizontal line on the wall (point I).4. Rotate the full tool with bracket 180° without changing the height, allow it to self-level, and mark the center of the horizontal line on the opposite wall B (point II). A B

5. Move the tool within 1' of wall B. Turn the tool to

ON. Adjust the height of the tool (using the tripod or by adding shims, if required) such that the hori-zontal line is projected exactly against the previous marked point II on wall B. Allow the tool to self-level. A B

6. Rotate the full tool with bracket 180° without changing the height, allow it to self-level, and mark the center of horizontal line on wall A (point III). Point III should be aligned as vertically above or below point I on wall A as possible.

7. The distance between points I and III on wall A is the height deviation (d) of the tool. This distance should not exceed 1/8" (max.) at 33' (1/2" at 132'). For the Measuring distance of 2 x 66' = 132', the maximum allowable deviation (d) is: 132' x ±1/8" ÷ 33' = ±1/2". MAINTENANCE WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, always remove the battery before perform-ing any maintenance. Never disassemble the tool. Maintain Laser LevelMaintain tools. If damaged, have the tool repaired before use. Accidents may be caused by poorly maintained tools. WARNING To reduce the risk of personal in-jury and damage, never immerse your tool in liquid or allow a liquid to ow inside them.CleaningKeep tool clean, dry and free of oil or grease.
