TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY
FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Turn Line Buttons off before adjusting Level.
1. After removing the Laser from the Carrying
Case, open the battery compartment, insert the
two ‘AA’ Batteries into the battery compartment
according to the polarity symbols shown inside,
and close the battery compartment door.
2. Be sure to set the Laser on as flat a surface as
possible. The tri-brack adjustment on the base
of the level can be used to help level the unit.
(Turn each of the knobs to either raise or
lower that corner.) The self-leveling range of
the Laser is within ± 6°. Use the 2 Vials on
the base to verify that the base is level.
