• Do not place the laser tool in a manner that may cause someone to unintentionally
look into the laser beam. Serious eye injury may result.
• Do not operate the tool in explosive environments, i.e. in the presence of gases or
flammable liquids.

6. Operating Instructions
IMPO TANT: It is the responsibility of the user to ensure proper
maintenance of the Self- eveling 3 Dot aser. Conduct periodic
test measurements to ensure the instrument is measuring
accurately and consistently. This is most important if the
instrument has been exposed to extreme temperatures or
moisture. Keep the Self- eveling 3 Dot aser optic lens clean and
inspect for damage.
Battery Installation
To install batteries in the Self- eveling 3 Dot aser:
1. Remove the battery cover, which is located at
the back of the tool, by pressing the battery
cover release found on the left and right side of
the tool and pulling the cover back.
2. Insert 2 “AA” batteries into the battery compart-
ment according to the polarity illustrated inside.
3. Replace the battery cover by seating the bottom door edge first,
then pivoting the battery cover up. Press in the release tabs to
clear the housing as the door closes.
Notes:
• Always check that the locking compensator/power switch is in the
locked position before removing and replacing batteries.
• Use only alkaline batteries.
• Remove the batteries when storing the instrument for an extended
time (more than 3 months) to avoid damage to the tool should the
batteries deteriorate.

Powering the Laser On/Off
Slide the locking compensator up to power on the unit and unlock
the compensator so that the laser can self-level. The status light
will illuminate, and the unit will emit three laser beams (up, front
and down).
Slide the locking compensator down to power off the unit and
engage the pendulum lock. The laser can be safely transported when
the pendulum is locked.
Note: The Self- eveling 3 Dot aser must be within ±5° of level for
the self-leveling feature to function properly. If the instrument is
beyond its 5° self-leveling range, the laser will not self-level, the
laser will flash and the status light will turn red. Once the instrument
has been adjusted to within its 5° self-leveling range, the laser will
self-level, the status light will turn green and the laser light will stop
flashing and remain solid.
Tips from the Pros
• Increasing the Beams’ Visibility – When working in bright
conditions, such as when working near windows or outside walls,
the visibility of the laser beams can be maximized by following
these steps:
• Work towards the laser.
• Use a freestanding target (sold separately).
• Wear laser glasses (sold separately).
Note: aser glasses enhance beam visibility but should never be
used to stare into the beam or be used as safety glasses. Eye
damage may result if these directions are not followed.

Care and Handling
• This Self- eveling 3 Dot aser is a precision tool that must be
handled with care.
• Avoid exposing unit to shock vibrations and extreme temperatures.
• Remove the batteries when storing the unit for an extended time
(more than 3 months) to avoid damage to the unit should the
batteries deteriorate.
• Avoid getting the unit wet.
• Keep the laser unit dry and clean, especially the laser output
window. Remove any moisture or dirt with a soft, dry cloth.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, strong detergents or cleaning
solvents to clean the unit.
