OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To get the most out of your Prolaser® 894 Visi-Cross, please adhere
carefully to the following instructions.
Avoid setting up the laser level near heavy machinery or sources of
vibration that may adversely affect the leveling of the laser.
NOTE
Horizontal Line
The laser level can generate a horizontal line.
Set up the Cross Laser approximately level on a flat, vibration-free surface
or a tripod. The laser level can compensate for up to ± 4° from the
horizontal plane.
Turn the lock to ON. The power indicator will light up.
Press the H button on the keypad on the top of the unit. The laser level
will generate a horizontal line. If it is set up outside the ± 4° self-leveling
range the laser beam will flash and an alarm will sound.
To activate Detector (Pulse) mode, press the P button on the keypad. The
Detector mode indicator will light up.
Before moving the laser level, press the H button again and turn the lock
to OFF.

or a tripod. The laser level can compensate for up to ± 4° from the
horizontal plane.
Turn the lock to ON. The power indicator will light up.
Press the V button on the keypad on the top of the unit. The laser level
will generate a vertical line. If it is set up outside the ± 4° limit the laser
beam will flash and an alarm will sound.
To activate Detector (Pulse) mode, press the P button on the keypad.
The Detector mode indicator will light up.

Using the Laser Detector
Press the On/Off button. The power indicator will light up.
Select the approximate distance from the laser level with the distance
button. The green light indicates near (less than 50'/15m). The red light
indicates far (more than 30'/10m).
Select the mute or sound mode by pressing the Mute button. One short
sound indicates that you are in mute mode. Two short sounds indicate
that the sound is on.
To detect a horizontal beam, hold the detector so that the horizontal vial
is centered. To detect a vertical beam, hold the detector so that the plumb
vial is centered.
Turn the detection window towards the laser beam and move the detector
up and down following the direction of the indicator arrow on the left of
the LCD. Lower the Laser Detector if the arrow pointing down is lit (yellow
indicator light/slow beeps).
Raise the Laser Detector if the arrow pointing up is lit (red
indicator light/slow beeps).
The beeps will speed up as the detector approaches level with
the laser beam.
When the Laser Detector is level with the laser beam, both arrows will
light up green (rapid beeps).

Preventative Maintenance
· Store in a clean dry place, between 5°F  131°F (-15°C  55°C)
· Before moving or transporting the unit, ensure that it is turned off/locked.
· If the Cross Laser is wet, dry off with a dry cloth. Do not seal the laser
in the carrying case until completely dry.
· Do not attempt to dry the Cross Laser by fire or with an electric dryer.
· Do not drop the Cross Laser, avoid rough treatment, and avoid constant
vibration.
· Periodically check the calibration of the Cross Laser.
· Clean with a soft cloth, slightly dampened with a soap and water solution.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents.
· Keep the laser aperture of the Cross Laser clean by wiping it gently with
a soft lint-free cloth.
· Keep the Detection window of the Laser Detector clean by wiping it with
a soft cloth moistened with glass cleaner.
· Remove batteries from the laser level and detector during lengthy periods
of non-use, and store in carrying case.
· Ensure that the Cross Laser is turned off before removing batteries.
Repairs
· See the Warranty section at the end of this manual.
· Do not take the Prolaser® 894 Visi-Cross apart or permit any unqualified
person to take the laser level apart. Unauthorized servicing may cause
bodily injury, irreparably damage the Cross Laser, and invalidate the
warranty.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE

14
The Cross Laser leaves the factory fully calibrated. Kapro recommends
that the level is checked regularly, and after the unit has been dropped
or mishandled.
Horizontal Line Calibration Test
1. Set up the Cross Laser on a flat, vibration-free surface or tripod as near
as possible to a long wall.
2. Turn the lock to ON. Press the H button on the keypad to generate a
horizontal beam on the wall.
3. Make two marks through the laser line on the wall, one very close to
the laser level and one as far away as possible.
4. Turn the lock to OFF, reposition the laser level (at the same height) as
near as possible to the far mark on the wall. Repeat steps 2 and 3.
5. Measure the height difference between the laser line and the two marks
previously made on the wall.
6. If the two measurements are identical, then the laser level is calibrated.
Vertical Line Calibration Test
1. Hang a plumb line from a high point on a wall.
2. Set up the Cross Laser on a flat, vibration-free surface or tripod about
3' (1m) from the wall.
3. Turn the lock to ON. Press the V button on the keypad to generate a
vertical beam.
4. Position the laser level so that the vertical laser line touches the base
of the plumb line.
5. If the laser line is also aligned to the top of the plumb line, then the
laser level is calibrated.
