labeling on this device.
Do not remove warning labels from
this device.
Never look directly into, or at
reflected laser beams.
DO NOT point towards people,
roads, footpaths or vehicles.
DO NOT direct laser beams up into
the sky AT ANY TIME.
do not project laser beams onto
highly reflective surfaces.
ONLY PEOPLE OVER 18 WHO
HAVE READ THIS MANUAL CAN
install this DEVICE.
for indoor or under-cover outdoor
use only.
Do not place unit in or near water.
Do not mount while standing in or
surrounded by water.
Do not spill liquids into or onto
unit. If this happens, disconnect
the power immediately.
Mount above a height of 2 meters.
Project beams above eye level.
Do not attempt to disassemble or
repair the unit, this can lead to
electric shock and hazardous laser
exposure.
To prevent over heating check the
fan filter for blockage regularly, in
dusty environments the filter will
need cleaning often, do not block
the cooling inlet or outlet.
The only user servicing that can be
done is: 1. cleaning the air filters,
2. cleaning the glass window, 3.
changing the fuse. return to
supplier for any other servicing or
repairs.

Mounting Options
The laser can be screwed to a
wall.
The handle has holes for
different mounting angles.
WALL SCREW MOUNT
It can be screwed to the
underside of a beam or rafter.
The releasable zip tie from the
power cord can be used to help
secure the power cord.
FLAT SURFACE OPTION

The laser can be sat on a solid
flat surface.
The handle can be used to
achieve the desired tilt angle.
FLAT SURFACE MOUNT
BEAM MOUNT
The Shedi can be screwed to the
top of a beam.
Mount the laser in a corner or an
end of the building to get
maximum coverage.

Once mounted in a suitable position
plug the laser into a power outlet
and position yourself beside, below,
or behind the laser. Do not stand in
front of the laser.
Check there are no other people in
front of the laser and turn on the red
power switch. The switch will
illuminate red when the power is on.
It will project a rectangle showing
the animation area for 12 seconds
when first turned on.
Position the rectangle to cover the
desired area. Try to cover as many
roosting and nesting areas as
possible. Covering the entry point of
the birds is also recommended.
The bottom of the rectangle should
remain above the height of any
people, vehicles, or animals that will
be in the area.
Cycle the power switch to repeat the
setup rectangle as many times as
necessary to position the rectangle
as desired.
Once setup correctly tighten the
handle knobs firmly. Ensure the
laser is mounted firmly to prevent
the animation area moving to
unwanted areas.
After 12 seconds the laser will play
different animations and sweep
patterns on a random 2 minutes on,
30 seconds off cycle.
Setup is complete at this point.
To disable the laser, turn the key off
and remove it.

Study the bird infestation problem before instillation: species of bird, entry &
exit points, nesting and roosting locations, flight paths, hours of activity.
Most small bird species have a lifespan of approximately 3 years, in badly
infested buildings the effectiveness of the laser will increase over this period
due to the attrition of the original habituated birds.
Removing evidence of birds beforehand will help prevent birds returning-
nests, droppings, dead birds, nesting material, bird related smells.
For large or badly infested buildings, or where 100% eradication is required
we recommend installing 2 lasers at opposite ends or corners of the area, this
eliminates all shadowing and significantly increases effectiveness.
Moving the laser occasionally will help prevent habituation and will stop
nesting in areas shadowed from the laser beams.
Mounting the laser so it sweeps the birds entry point will increase
effectiveness. Birds strongly dislike being lasered in flight.

The supplied wall timer can be set to turn the laser off during hours of
darkness when birds are not active.
Installing a laser in a new building before the birds move in is very effective, in
most cases the birds never move in.
Buildings with no exposed food present are less likely to have birds return.
Buildings with alternative nesting sites nearby (e.g. trees) are easier to
eradicate birds from.
It is common to also see a reduction in rodent numbers, through aversion to
laser beams and reduction of birds eggs.
