WARNINGS
To ensure safe operation and service of the instrument, follow these instructions.
Failure to observe these warnings can result in serious personal injury, re, or
electrical shock. Retain these instructions for future reference.
WARNING: LASER RADIATION. DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM. Class II Laser.
• Exposing eyes to laser radiation can result in severe and permanent eye injuries.
NEVER look directly into the laser beam emitted by this instrument.
• Do not use the instrument if it appears to be damaged.
• Do not modify the instrument in any way, as to do so could result in emission of
hazardous laser radiation than could result in severe eye injuries .
• Do not use optical equipment such as lenses, prisms, optical scopes, etc. to
transmit, retransmit, or view the laser beam as this could result in severe eye
injuries.
• This product should not be used by untrained operators or operators who have
not read and fully understood the instructions.
• This product should not be used in any location that could result in somebody
looking at or having their eyes inadvertently irradiated by the laser beam as this
could result in severe eye injuries.
• The instrument should be powered off following use to minimize the risks of
inadvertently exposure to hazardous laser radiation that could result in severe eye
injuries.
• Do not remove warning labels from this instrument as this could result in serious
personal injury and increases the risk of exposure to hazardous laser irradiation.
• The instrument should be securely located in a tidy work environment prior to
operation as unexpected drops or movement of the instrument may result in
damage to the instrument and increases the risk of inadvertent exposure to laser
radiation that could result in severe eye injuries.
• This instrument is IP54 dust & water resistant. Following any contact with water,
thoroughly dry the instrument with a dry, lint-free cloth.
• There are no user serviceable parts in this instrument.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
TURNING LASER BEAMS ON/OFF
Push the ON/OFF buttons for the horizontal line
1
, vertical line
2
, and plumb
spot
3
(93LCLS model only) to turn ON and OFF their respective laser lines. These
buttons are only active once the Pendulum Lock/Unlock Slider Switch
6
has
been set to the Unlocked position. If the Pendulum Slider Switch is moved from the
Unlocked to the Locked position while the laser beams are active, they will be turned
OFF. The different laser lines can be operated independently or simultaneously.
NOTE: The plumb spot application projects laser beams both in upward and downward
directions. The downward beam may be used to locate a specific point on a floor
layout while the upward beam projects that same point to a ceiling.
PENDULUM SLIDER SWITCH & SELF-LEVELING
The laser assemblies are mounted on a pendulum so that the instrument can self-level.
The Pendulum Slider Switch
6
must be in the unlocked position for the instrument
to self-level. If the instrument is tilted by >4°from the horizontal plane, the pendulum
will not be capable of self-leveling; the active laser beams will flash and the Excessive
Tilt Indicator
5
will blink to indicate that the instrument is not level and cannot
self-level. The instrument must be repositioned on a more level geometry for the self-
Leveling pendulum to function appropriately.
Horizontal Laser Line Vertical Laser Line Plumb Laser Line
NOTE: If the instrument indicates that it is not
level (via flashing beams and/or a blinking
Excessive Tilt indicator
5
), then it should not
be used for laying out level or plumb lines.
NOTE: Following use, the active laser beams
must be turned OFF and the Pendulum Slider
Switch must be placed in the Locked position
prior to storage.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
MAGNETIC MOUNTING BRACKET 14
The instrument is attached to a magnetic mounting bracket. The bracket may be
magnetically attached to any magnetic structure such as steel studs, ducts, structural
beams, and steel doors. The bracket also features a key-hole for mounting the
instrument using a screw or nail to non-magnetic structures. Once mounted to a
structure via the mounting bracket the instrument can be rotated on the bracket
through 360°to direct the laser beams.
CLAMP-ON WALL ADAPTER 16
The clamp-on wall adapter may be clamped to a structural beam, or wall bracket for
suspended ceiling installations, to present a steel surface onto which the instrument's
magnetic mounting bracket may be attached. Once magnetically attached the
instrument may be positioned to deliver the laser line at the required location. The
clamp-on adapter also features a key-hole for mounting the instrument using a screw
or nail.

Horizontal Beam Out-of-Plane Tilt (FIG. 2)
Position the instrument parallel to a wall and project a beam along the wall, from
left to right as shown. Mark two locations (a, b) along the beam separated by distance x.
Position the laser at the other side of the wall and project the beam back through mark
b, from right to left as shown, and mark position c. If x is 30' (9.1 m), then the vertical
distance dshould be ≤ 5/32" (4 mm). For example, if xis set to 15' (4.6 m), then the
vertical distance dshould be ≤ 3/32" (2 mm).
CHECKING LASER BEAMS FOR LEVEL ACCURACY
Horizontal Beam Left/Right Tilt (FIG. 1)
Secure instrument via its mounting bracket at a distance xfrom a vertical wall
structure as shown. Rotate the instrument on the bracket to the left so that the right
side of the beam is projected
on the wall directly across
from the instrument, mark
the vertical location on the
wall. Rotate the instrument
to the right and repeat
marking the vertical location
of the left side of the beam.
At ~33' (10 m) the vertical
distance dbetween the
left-side and right-side
markings should be ≤ 5/32" (4 mm).
For example, if xis set to 15' (4.6 m),
the vertical distance dshould be ≤3/32" (2 mm).

Vertical Beam Tilt (FIG. 3)
Position the instrument on the floor and project a vertical beam along a line xof
about 6' (1.9 m). Mark point a on the ceiling. Position the instrument on the other
side of the line and repeat marking point bon the ceiling. The distance dshould be
≤5/32" (4 mm) for a 33' (10 m) ceiling or ≤3/32" (2 mm) for a 15' (4.6 m) ceiling.
