WARNING
LASER RADIATION.Do not stare into beam.Class II laser product.Turn the laser
beam on only when using this tool.
• Do not remove or deface any product labels.
• Avoid direct eye exposure.The laser beam can
cause ash blindness.

DESCRIPTION
KNOW YOUR LASER LINE LEVEL
The Laser Line Level replaces the need for the traditional pencil, carpenter’s
mark, and chalk line.
The Laser Line Level can be hand-held, wall-mounted, or leveled on a horizontal
surface to provide a laser line for the work area.

OPERATION
1. TO INSTALL BATTERIES (Fig. 2)
The battery compartment holds two
“AAA” batteries.
a. Push the latch in the direction
of the arrow to release the
compartment cover.
b. Install the fresh “AAA” batteries in
their correct polarity positions, as
indicated inside the compartment.
c. Replace the battery compartment
cover.
NOTE:
• Always turn off the tool before installing or replacing the batteries.
• Remove the batteries from the tool when not using it for extended periods.
• The 2 AAA batteries should match each other in brand and type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Remove depleted batteries immediately, and dispose of them according to the
laws and regulations governing your community.
2. TO TURN THE LASER LINE LEVEL ON AND OFF
The power switch is located on the top of the tool.
a. Press the laser ON/OFF switch to turn ON the laser line level. The laser line
will be projected from the laser aperture.
b. Press the laser ON/OFF switch again to turn the laser line level off.
CAUTION: When turning on the laser line level, ALWAYS protect your eyes and
the eyes of those around you. NEVER point the laser line level at anyone’s face,
including your own, and never stare at the laser line.

OPERATION
3. DETERMINE LASER ORIENTATION
The horizontal bubble vial and the vertical bubble vial are located on the top of
the tool.
a. To project a horizontal laser line:
turn the laser line level slowly
until the bubble of the horizontal
vial (X) is between the two
reference lines (Fig. 3)
b. To project a vertical laser line: turn
the laser line level until the bubble
of the vertical vial (Y) between the
two reference lines (Fig. 3)
c. To project a laser line at an angle:
turn the laser line level body until
the indicator pointer is at the desired angle, as shown on the 360° rotating
protractor scale
NOTE:
(1) The laser line level can be mounted directly on a metal surface without the
adjustable wall-mount base by making use of the magnet on the bottom of
the laser line level.
(2) In addition, the level can be mounted to smooth surfaces --- BE SURE to test
glue tape on an inconspicuous area on the smooth surface to ensure that the
smooth surface will not be damaged.

OPERATION
4. FOR LASER LINE PROJECTION ON WALLS
There is a mounting pin inserted in each side of the laser line level body: the thin
pins can be pressed into any soft wood or wall-board surface to secure the tool.
Mounting holes on the laser line level
a. Pull the two mounting pins out from their holes in the level.
b. Determine location for laser line on the wall and mark it.
c. Align the mounting pins with the holes on the laser line level body.
d. Press the pins fully into soft wood or wall board.
Mounting holes on the adjustable wall-mount base
a. Pull the two mounting pins out from their storage holes in the adjustable
wall-mount base.
b. Determine location for laser line on the wall and mark it.
c. Align the mounting pins with the holes on the adjustable wall-mount base.
d. Press the pins fully into soft wood or wall board and ensure that the base is
xed securely before attaching the laser line level body onto base.
When not in use, keep the mounting pins stored in their storages holes.
5. FOR LASER LINE PROJECTION ON FLOORS
a. Determine the location.
b. Set the laser line level on the oor.
c. Turn the laser line level ON.
d. Turn the laser line level body until the indicator pointer is at the desired
angle as shown on the 360° rotating protractor scale.
e. Align ooring material with the laser line on the oor surface.
