Trimble Outdoors LP20 - Manual (Page 2)

Laser Safety
The pocket laser uses a Class 2 laser, which complies with the
requirements based on the IEC825-1/EN60825 standards (Class
2 based on 21CFR 1041). This laser may be operated without the
need for any additional protective measures. Nevertheless, as with
the sun, care should be taken to avoid looking directly into the
light source.
CAUTION: Never look directly into the laser beam.
Please keep the pocket laser out of the reach of children.
Warranty
Trimble warrants the Spectra Precision ® Laser LP20 and LP40 to
be free of defects in material and workmanship for one year. This
warranty period is in effect from the date the system is delivered
by Trimble or its authorized Dealer to the purchaser, or is put into
service by a Dealer as a demonstrator or rental component.
Additionally, items covered by the standard Trimble one-
year warranty are the accessories. All other components not
manufactured Trimble but sold as a part of the system, such
as tripods and grade rods, will carry a 90 days warranty or the
manufacturer’s warranty, whichever is greater.
Trimble or its Authorized Service Center will repair or replace, at
its option, any defective part or components of which notice has
been given during the warranty period. A Warranty Registration
Card must be filled out properly and on file with Trimble Service
Department before warranty repair or replacement can be
approved. Travel and per diem expenses, if required, to and from
the place where repairs are made will be charged to the purchaser
at the prevailing rates.
Customers should send products to the nearest Authorized Factory
Service Center for warranty repairs, freight prepaid. In countries
with Trimble Service Subsidiary Centers, the repaired products will
be returned to the customer, freight prepaid.
Any evidence of negligent, abnormal use, accident, or any attempt
to repair equipment by other than factory-authorized personnel
Trimble certified or recommended parts, automatically voids the
warranty.
Special precautions have been taken to ensure the calibration
of the laser; however, calibration is not covered by this warranty.
Maintenance of the calibration is the responsibility of the user.
The foregoing states the entire liability of Trimble regarding
the purchase and use of its equipment. Trimble will not be held
responsible for any consequential loss or damage of any kind.
This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, except as set forth
above, including an implied warranty merchantability of fitness for
a particular purpose, is hereby disclaimed. This warranty is in lieu
of all other warranties, expressed or implied.

Calibration
Before each use, be sure to check the pocket laser for signs of
damage. If the laser has been dropped or subjected to other rough
treatment, it should be checked for accuracy.
Checking Accuracy—Plumb
1. Press the power button.
2. Place the laser so that
its down beam is over a
reference mark on the floor.
3. Locate the position of the
up beam on the ceiling and
make a mark.
6. Measure the difference
between the two marks on
the ceiling, which will be
twice the actual error. If
the difference is more than
5 mm in 7.5 m (
3 / 16 in.
in 25 ft), the laser must be
serviced at an authorized
service center.
4. Rotate the laser 180° and
realign the down beam
over the reference mark on
the floor.
5. Locate the position of the
up beam on the ceiling,
which will be twice the
actual error, and make
a mark.
Checking Accuracy—Level

Distance Between Walls
1. In an area with at least 6 m (20 ft) between two parallel walls,
place the laser 50–75 mm (2–3 in.) from one wall, facing
the wall.
2. Press the power button.
3. Locate the position of the level beam on the wall and make
a mark.
4. Rotate the laser 180° so that the laser faces the other wall.
5. Locate the position of the level beam on the wall and make
a mark.
6. Move the laser to the far wall, facing the wall.
7. Adjust the laser’s height until the beam is superimposed over
the mark made in step 5.
8. Without changing the height of the laser, rotate it 180° to place
the beam near the mark on the first wall (step 3).
9. Measure the vertical distance between the beam and the mark
made in step 3. If the measurement is greater than the values
shown below, the laser must be serviced at an authorized
service center.
6 m (20 ft) 3.0 mm ( 1 / 8 in.)
12 m (40 ft) 6.0 mm ( 1 / 4 in.)
18 m (60 ft) 8.0 mm ( 5 / 16 in.)
24 m (80 ft) 11.0 mm ( 7 / 16 in.)
1. Find a room at least
10 m (35 ft) long. Mark
a point (A) on the floor at
one end of the room.
2. Set up the laser so that its
down beam is over point A.
Make sure the level beam
points toward the far end
of the room.
3. Mark a point (B) on the
floor at the center of
the room using a target
to transfer the level beam
location to the floor.
Checking Level to Square Beam 90° Calibration
(LP40 only)
Refer to the graphic for the location of the LP40 at each step and
for the location of the marks made at each step. All marks can be
made on the floor by placing a target in front of the level or square
beam and transferring the location to the floor.

5. Move the LP40 to point B and align the level beam to point
C again.
6. Mark the location of the square beam (D) on the floor.
Note: To ensure accuracy, the distances from A to B, B to C,
and B to D should be equal.
7. Turn the LP40 90° so that the level beam aligns with point D.
8. Mark the location of the square beam (E) on the floor as close
as possible to point A.
9. Measure the distance between points A and E. If the
measurement is greater than the values shown below, the laser
must be serviced at an authorized service center.
Room length or distance The 90° angle between the
between points A and C
level beam and square beam is out
of calibration if the distance between
points A and E is:
10 m (35 ft) >9.0 mm ( 3 / 8 in.)
20 m (70 ft) >18.0 mm ( 3 / 4 in.)
