SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
•While the instrument is operating, be careful not to expose your eyes to the emitting laser
beam (red light source). Exposure to a laser beam for a long time may be hazardous to
yours eyes. (Laser beam: equivalent to class 2 laser level)
•Do not try to dismantle the instrument. Have it repaired by your dealer or authorized repair
shop. Dismantling it by yourself may worsen the trouble.
•Do not stand on the carrying case. The case could turn over causing the person standing on
it to fall.
•When attaching the instrument to a tripod, make sure the instrument is securely fixed to the
tripod and then securely tighten the tripod leg clamps. If not securely fastened and/or
tightened, the main unit could fall off or the tripod could fall over.
•When carrying the tripod, be careful so that the tripod shoes do not strike anyone.
•When setting the tripod, make sure not to stab someone’s hand or foot with the tripod
shoes.
•Operate this laser product with the height of laser avoiding that of eyes of car drivers and
pedestrians. Avoid putting the laser on a highly reflective material such as mirror. When
disposing of this instrument, take a measure such as breaking the battery cap so that the
laser will not be emitted.
PRECAUTIONS
•The instrument should not be stored or used in extreme temperature or job on a place
subject to rapid change of temperature. The instrument may not function properly if used
out of the ambient temperature range.
•Put into the carrying for storage and place in a dry area not subject to vibration, dust or high
moisture.
•When storage usage temperatures are widely different, leave the instrument in the case
until it can adjust to the surrounding temperature.
•The detector may react to the laser beam and further react to the flurescent lamp, site lamp,
modulated light or and electric wave (in or near the airport etc.)and so correct measurement
is sometimes not performed near these places. In these cases, please measure again after
stopping or cutting these modulated light or wave etc.
•The instrument should be transported or carried carefully to avoid impact or vibration.
•The instrument should be stored in the carrying case and packed with cushioning material
and handle with care as ‘Fragile’.

•Be sure not to use chemicals such as benzene, thinner or gasoline.
•Be careful not to scratch the glass surface.
•Leaving the batteries in the instrument for extended period may cause power consumption
even if it is not in use.
•If used battery is left in the battery holder, the instrument of the detector may be damaged
by the battery fluid leakage.
B. Check and adjustment of the datum point
Horizontal check
•Set up the instrument on the tripod 20m away from one wall so that the ‘X 1 side’ of the
instrument faces the wall and turn it on or auto-leveling.
•Turn on the detector. Keep adjusting its position for appropriate level mark on LCD display
and mark the reference point (A) at the moment.
•Loosen the center screw of the tripod to turn the instrument 180º to let X2 face one wall.
•Readjust the detector position for appropriate level mark on LCD display and mark the
reference point (B) at the moment.
•There’s no need to adjust the unit if the distance between point A and B is no greater than
3mm measured with target plate and ruler.

•If the distance more than 3 mm, please refer to the following adjustment method.
•The method for Y direction check is same as X direction check, which requires you to
replace X1 & X2 with Y1 & Y2 facing the wall.
Horizontal calibration
•Turn I/O key on before switching to calibration mode, and the unit will be self-leveled, at the
same time, the rotor is rotating.
•Press and hold the cal key for more than 5 seconds, and then release this key to stop the
rotor from rotating.
•That the X LED1 blinks fast in green is to indicate X direction calibration is in progress.
•Then press the spot key on the unit or remove control to bring the laser beam to the center
of the reference point A and B. Please be noted that it is preferable to press and hold spot
key to help you to fine tune the laser beam to desired position. If there is still a bit from
accessibility, you may reach for it by slightly turning the unit.
•Bring the laser point to the center of the reference point A and B by pressing slope key
briefly. If X2 faces one wall and the laser beam is projected in the reference direction, move
down the laser beam by pressing of slope key.
•After appropriate adjustment then press the cal key twice, the unit will save and quit the cal
mode.
•Steps for Y direction calibration are same as those for X direction calibration. Please be
noted to adjust it after entering Y direction calibration mode (LED2 blinks in red), and
adjustment will be saved by pressing cal key only once. If Y1 faces one wall and the laser
beam is projected in the reference direction, move down the laser beam by pressing of
slope key.
•Press slope key every 5 times, the laser beam 20m away can be moved up and down by

1mm.
Note:
•If the instrument is not returned to normal, even through these measures, connect your

Vertical check
To check vertical calibration, need a plumb bob with at least 3m of string.
•Hang the plumb bob from the ceiling of a room whose ceiling is at least 3m high off the
floor.
•Set up the laser in vertical position by turning it over and make the speed setting at 0 rpm.
•Use the spot key, guide the beam from the top of the string to the bottom of it.
•Check for any deviation in the beam from the top of the string to the bottom of it.
If the deviation is more than 3mm, the vertical axis needs calibrating.
Vertical Calibration
•Before switching to calibration mode, press I/O key.
•Then press cal key for more than 5 seconds, and release it to bring the rotation head to a
stop.
•LED3 will blink in green, which indicates the axis Z calibration is in progress.
•Aim the laser point at the upper section of plumb string just by positioning the instrument
accordingly, then use spot key to aim the laser point to the lower section of the plumb string,
check the deviation (H) from the plumb string to the current laser point.
Use either left slope key or right slope key to adjust to its half deviation.
•After the adjustment, do the progress of axis z checking again.
•After confirmation of desirable calibration, press cal key to save the calibration data and exit
the calibration mode.
