If the Lithium-Ion Battery Pack 9 or nonrechargeable batteries are running low, the laser lines will gradually become dimmer.
If the lithium-ion battery pack/non-rechargeable batteries are almost empty, the Battery Status Indicator 3 will flash continuously. The laser lines will flash for 5 seconds every 5 minutes.
If the lithium-ion battery pack/non-rechargeable batteries are empty, the laser lines and the Battery Status Indicator 3 will flash one last time before the laser tool switches off.
Operation
Initial Operation
- Protect the tool against moisture and direct sun light.
- Do not subject the tool to extreme temperatures or variations in temperature. 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. In case of extreme temperatures or variations in temperature, the accuracy of the tool can be impaired.
- Avoid heavy impacts or dropping of the tool. After a heavy exterior impact on the tool, an accuracy check should always be carried out before continuing to work. (See "Accuracy Check of the Laser Tool" on page 16.)
- Switch the laser tool off when transporting it. The pendulum unit is locked when the tool is switched off, as it can otherwise be damaged by extreme movements.
Switching On and Off
To switch on the laser tool, slide the On/Off Switch 4 to the ON position. Immediately after switching on, the laser tool sends a laser line out of the Exit Opening for Laser Beam 5.
Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the laser beam yourself (even from a distance).
To switch off the laser tool, slide the On/Off Switch 4 to the OFF position. The pendulum unit is locked when the tool is switched off.
Never leave the laser tool unattended when switched on, and ensure the laser tool is switched off after use. Others may be blinded by the laser beam.
If the temperature of the laser tool is approaching the maximum permissible operating temperature, the laser lines will gradually become dimmer.
If the maximum permitted operating temperature is exceeded, the laser lines will flash rapidly before the laser tool switches off. Once it has cooled down, the laser tool is
operational again and can be switched back on.
Deactivating the Automatic Shut-Off Function
If no button on the laser tool is pressed for approx. 120min the laser tool will automatically switch itself off to preserve battery life.
To switch the laser tool back on after it has been automatically switched off, you can either slide the On/Off Switch 4 to the OFF position first and then switch the laser tool back on, or press one of the Buttons for Laser Operating Mode 1.
To deactivate the automatic shut-off function, hold down one of the Buttons for Laser Operating Mode 1 for at least 3 s (with the laser tool switched on). If the automatic shutoff function is deactivated, the laser beams will flash briefly as confirmation.
To activate the automatic shut-off function, switch the laser tool off and on again.
Operating Modes
The laser tool can generate one horizontal and two vertical laser lines.
Once the laser tool is switched on, the horizontal laser line is switched on.
You can switch each of the laser lines on and off independently of one another. To do this, press the Button for Laser Operating Mode 1 that corresponds to the relevant laser line.
All operating modes can be used with both automatic leveling and the incline function.
All operating modes are suitable for operation with the Laser Receiver 22.
Automatic Leveling
The laser tool monitors the position at all times during operation. It works with automatic leveling during set-up within the self-leveling range of ± 4^ . Outside of the self-leveling range, it will automatically switch to the incline function.
Working with Automatic Leveling
Position the laser tool on a level, firm surface or attach it to the Magnetic Mount 15 or the Tripod 23.
Operation
The automatic leveling function automatically compensates irregularities within the self-leveling range of ± 4^ . Once the laser beam is permanently lit, the laser tool has leveled in.
If automatic leveling is not possible, e.g. because the surface on which the laser tool stands deviates by more than 4^ from the horizontal plane, the laser lines will initially flash quickly for 2 seconds, then quickly flash every 5 seconds several times. The laser tool is in the incline function.
For additional work with automatic leveling, set up the laser tool so that it is horizontal and wait for the self-leveling procedure to complete. As soon as the laser tool is within the self-leveling range of ± 4^ , the laser beams will light up continuously.
In case of ground vibrations or position changes during operation, the laser tool is automatically leveled again. Upon leveling, check the position of the laser beams with regard to the reference points to avoid errors arising from a change in the laser tool's position.
Working with the Incline Function
Place the laser tool on an inclined surface. When working with the incline function, the laser lines will initially flash quickly for 2 seconds, then quickly flash every 5 seconds several times.
In the incline function, the laser lines are no longer leveled and no longer necessarily run perpendicular to one another.
Working Advice
Always use the center of the laser line for marking. The width of the laser line changes with the distance.
Accuracy Check of the Laser Tool
Influences on Accuracy
The ambient temperature has the greatest influence. Especially temperature differences occurring from the ground upward can refract the laser beam.
Since the largest difference in temperature layers is close to the ground, you should always mount the laser tool on a Tripod 23 for measuring distances of 65 ft (20 m) or more. In addition, position the laser tool in the center of the work surface, wherever this is possible.
In addition to external influences, device-specific influences (e.g. falls or heavy impacts) can also lead to deviations. For this reason, check the leveling accuracy each time before beginning work.
First check the leveling accuracy of the horizontal laser line, then the leveling accuracy of the vertical laser line.
Should the laser tool exceed the maximum deviation during one of the tests, please have it repaired by a Bosch aftersales service.
Checking the Horizontal Leveling Accuracy
(Fig. 5, Fig. 6, Fig. 7, Fig. 8)
A free measuring distance of 16 ft (4.8m) on a firm surface in front of two walls A and B is required for the check.
- Mount the tool onto a tripod, or place it on a firm and level surface close to the wall A. Switch the tool on. Select crossline operation with automatic leveling. Select the operating mode in which a horizontal and vertical laser plane is generated in front of the tool.
- Direct the laser against the close wall A and allow the tool to level in. Mark the center of the point where the laser lines cross each other on the wall (point I).
- Turn the tool by 180^ , allow it to level in and mark the cross point of the laser lines on the opposite wall B (point II).
Operation
- Without turning the tool, position it close to wall B. Switch the tool on and allow it to level in.
- Align the height of the tool (using a tripod or by underlaying, if required) in such a manner that the cross point of the laser lines is projected against the previously marked point II on the wall B.
- Without changing the height, turn around the tool by 180^ . Direct it against the wall A in such a manner that the vertical laser line runs through the already marked point I.
- Allow the tool to level in and mark the cross point of the laser lines on the wall A (point III).
The difference of both marked points I and III on wall A results in the actual height deviation of the tool alongside the lateral axis.
On the measuring distance of 2 × 16 ft = 32 ft (2 x 5 m = 10 m), the maximum allowable deviation is:
32 ft x ±0.0036 in/ft = ±1/8 in (0.115 in) (10 m × ±0.3 mm/m = ±3 mm)
Thus, the difference d between points I and III must not exceed 0.115 in (3mm) (max.).




Checking the Vertical Leveling Accuracy
(Fig. 9, Fig. 10)
For this check, a door opening is required with at least 8 ft (2.5 m) of space (on a firm surface) to each side of the door.
- Position the tool on a firm, level surface (not on a tripod) 8 ft (2.5m) away from the door opening. Allow the tool to level in while in vertical operation with automatic leveling and direct the laser beam at the door opening.
- Mark the center of the vertical laser line at the floor of the door opening (point I) at a distance of 8 ft (2.5m) beyond the other side of the door opening (point II) and at the upper edge of the door opening (point III).
- Rotate the tool by 180^ and position it on the other side of the door opening directly behind point II. Allow the tool to level in and align the vertical laser line in such a manner that its center runs exactly through points I and II.
- Mark the center of the laser line at the upper edge of the door opening as point IV.
Operation
The differenced of both marked points III and IV results in the actual deviation of the tool to the plumb line.
- Measure the height of the door opening.
Repeat the measuring procedure for the second vertical laser plane. For this, select an operating mode in which a vertical laser plane is generated aside of the tool. Turn the tool 90^ before beginning with the measuring procedure.
The maximum admissible deviation is calculated as follows:
doubled height of the door opening x 0.0036 in/ft (0.3 mm/m).
Example: For a door-opening height of 6.5 ft (2 m), the maximum deviation may be 2 × 6.5 ft × ± 0.0036 in/ft = 0.047 in (2 × 2 m × ± 0.3 mm/m = ± 1.2 mm).
Consequently, points III and IV may be no more than 0.047 in (1.2 mm) (max.) apart from each other.


Use with Attachments
Working with the Laser Target Plate (Optional Accessory)
(Fig. 11)
The Laser Target Plate 20 increases the visibility of the laser beam under unfavorable conditions and at large distances.
The reflective part of the Laser Target Plate 20 improves the visibility of the laser line. Thanks to the transparent part, the laser line is also visible from the back side of the laser target plate.
Working with the Tripod (Optional Accessory)
(Fig. 2, Fig. 11, Fig. 12, Fig. 13, Fig. 14, Fig. 15, Fig. 16, Fig. 17)
A Tripod 23 offers a stable, height-adjustable support. Position the tool with the Tripod Mount 1/4 " 13 onto the thread of the Tripod 23 or a commercially available camera tripod.
For fastening to a commercially available construction tripod, use the Tripod Mount 5/8" 14. Tighten the tool with the mounting stud on the Tripod 23.

(Fig. 11, Fig. 18, Fig. 19, Fig. 20)
You can secure the laser tool on vertical surfaces or magnetizable materials using the Magnetic Mount 15. In conjunction with the Ceiling Clip 19, the laser tool can also be aligned vertically.
Place the laser tool with the Tripod Mount 1/4" 13 on the Magnetic Mount 1/4" Screw 17 and screw it tight.
Attachment options for the Magnetic Mount 15:
Using a commercially available fastening screw, it can be attached via the Magnetic Mount Screw Hole 18 to wood.
- Using the Magnets 16, it can be attached to magnetizable materials.
Using the Ceiling Clip 19, it can be attached to ceiling grids.
Note: Use only DK20. Use of DK10 will provide insufficient support and may cause the tool to fall.
Keep your fingers away from the rear side of the magnetic accessory while attaching the accessory to surfaces. The strong pulling force of the magnets may jam your fingers.
Roughly align the Magnetic Mount 15 before switching on the laser tool.

ditions (bright environment, direct sunlight) and over greater distances.
All operating modes are suitable for operation with the Laser Receiver 22.
Laser Viewing Glasses (Optional Accessory)
(Fig. 11)
The Laser Viewing Glasses 21 filter out the ambient light. This makes the light of the laser appear brighter for the eyes.
- Do not use the Laser Viewing Glasses 21 as safety goggles. The Laser Viewing Glasses 21 are used for improved visualization of the laser beam, but they do not protect against laser radiation.
- Do not use the Laser Viewing Glasses 21 as sunglasses or in traffic. The laser viewing glasses do not afford complete UV protection and reduce color perception.
Maintenance and Service
Store and transport the tool only in the supplied protective case.
Keep the tool clean at all times.
Do not immerse the tool into water or other fluids.
Wipe off debris using a moist and soft cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents.
Regularly clean the surfaces at the exit opening of the laser in particular, and pay attention to any fluff or fibers.
If the tool should fail despite the care taken in manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by an authorized after-sales service center for Bosch power tools.
