When the measuring tool is in the vertical position, it is pos-
sible to rotate the laser point, laser line or rotational plane
around the vertical axis. Rotating is possible only within the
self-levelling range (5° leftwards or rightwards) and only with
the remote control.
Press button 22 on the remote control to rotate in clockwise
direction, and button 23 on the remote control to rotate in
anticlockwise direction.
Automatic Levelling of the Rotational Laser Level
Overview
After switching on, the measuring tool automatically detects
the horizontal or vertical position. To change between the
horizontal and vertical position, switch the measuring tool off,
reposition it and switch on again.
After switching on, the measuring tool checks the horizontal
and vertical position and automatically levels out any uneven-
ness within the self-levelling range of approx. 8 % (5°).
When the measuring tool is inclined by more than 8 % after
switching on or after a position change, levelling in is no long-
er possible. In this case, the rotor is stopped, the laser flashes
and levelling indicator 3continuously lights up red. Reposi-
tion the measuring tool and wait for it to re-level. Without
repositioning, the laser is automatically switched off after
2 minutes and the measuring tool after 2 hours.
When the measuring tool is levelled in, it continuously checks
the horizontal and vertical position. Automatic re-levelling
takes place after position changes. To avoid faulty measure-
ments, the rotor stops during the levelling process, the laser
flashes and the levelling indicator 3flashes green.
Shock-warning Function
The measuring tool has a shock-warning function; after posi-
tion changes or shock to the measuring tool, or in case of
ground vibrations, it keeps the measuring tool from levelling
in at changed heights, and thus prevents vertical errors.
To switch on the shock-warning function, press the shock-
warning button 2. The shock-warning indicator 1continuous-
ly lights up green, and the shock-warning function is activated
after 30 seconds.
When the levelling-accuracy range is exceeded after a posi-
tion change of the measuring tool or when heavy ground
vibrations are detected, the shock-warning function is actuat-
ed: The rotation is stopped, the laser flashes, the levelling in-
dicator 3goes out and the shock-warning indicator 1flashes
red. The current operating mode is stored.
After the shock warning has actuated, press the shock-
warning button 2on the measuring tool or the shock-warning
reset button 21 on the remote control. The shock-warning
function is restarted and the measuring tool starts the level-
ling. As soon as the measuring tool is levelled in (levelling indi-
cator 3continuously lights up green), it starts in the stored
operating mode. Now, check the height of the laser beam with
a reference point and correct the height, if required.
When, after the shock-warning function has actuated, the
function is not restarted by pressing button 2on the measur-
ing tool or the shock-warning reset button 21 on the remote
control, the laser is automatically switched off after 2 minutes
and the measuring tool after 2 hours.
To switch off the shock-warning function, press shock-
warning button 2once, or, when the shock warning is actuat-
ed (shock-warning indicator 1flashing red) press it twice.
When the shock-warning function is shut off, the shock-
warning indicator 1goes out.
The shock-warning function cannot be switched on or off with
the remote control; it can only be restarted after having
actuated.
Levelling Accuracy of the Rotational Laser Level
Influences on Accuracy
The ambient temperature has the greatest influence. Espe-
cially temperature differences occurring from the ground
upward can divert the laser beam.
The deviations play a role in excess of approx. 20 m measur-
ing distance and can easily reach two to four times the
deviation at 100 m.
Because the largest difference in temperature layers is close
to the ground, the measuring tool should always be mounted
on a tripod when measuring distances exceeding 20 m. If
possible, also set up the measuring tool in the centre of the
work area.
Accuracy Check of the Measuring Tool
In addition to external influences, device-specific influences
(e.g. falls or heavy impacts) can also lead to deviations. For
this reason, check the calibration each time before beginning
work.
For the accuracy check, an unobstructed measuring distance
of 20 m on firm ground between two walls A and B is required.
With the measuring tool in the horizontal position, a transit
measurement is to be carried out across both axes X and Y
(both positive and negative) (altogether 4 complete measure-
ments).
– Mount the measuring tool in the horizontal position onto a
tripod 31(accessory) or place it on a firm and level surface
near wall A. Switch the measuring tool on.
– After levelling, direct the laser beam in point operation
onto the close wall A. Mark the centre point of the laser
beam on the wall (point I).
