OPERATION
E
SET UP OPTIONS
• on any flat surface
• on the integrated floor tripod supplied with the kit
• on a builder‘s tripod using the 5/8“ retaining bolt
Set up the instrument as upright as possible to allow the
self-levelling system to function within the range.
If necessary centre the ciruclar bubble (5) by means of
the height adjustable tripod legs.
ROTATABLE CIRCLE AND TANGENT SCREW
The FL 69 HP is equipped with a 360° rotatable circle.
The laser can be rotated by hand or carefully by use of
the tangent screw (6).

POWER ON
Turn the ON / OFF knob to position „ON“ and the instrument is ready for use. The laser lines can now
be switched on and off independently of each other or altoghether (see the drawing).
A visible (blinking lines) and audible alarm indicates if the instrument is set up outside of the self-
levelling range. If so, re-position the instrument on a more level surface.
To power off turn the ON / OFF knob to „OFF“.
The instrument is now switched off and the compensator is locked to avoid damages during
transportation.
NB:
During transportation ensure that the ON / OFF knob is set to position „OFF“.
Disregard may lead to damage of the self-levelling mechanism.
The laser lines can be switched on and off independently of each other or altogether:

with receiver FR 55.
The receiver is included with art.-no. 581510 and is optional with art.-no. 581500.
Press button (3) (pulse mode LED (7) will illuminate) to change from normal
to receiver mode.The receiver can now detect the FL 69 HP laser lines (the
visibility of the laser lines are weaker in this mode).
The working range can be extended up to 60 meters by using a receiver.
You will find more detailed information in the receiver user manual.

IMPORTANT – move the receiver FR 55 up and down carefully to detect the laser beam. FL 69 HP
and FR 55 are working with another technology than rotating laser levels. Because of this the receiver
FR 55 must be moved much more slowly.
