This is a precision instrument which must be handled with care. Avoid
impacts and jarring. Store and transport the instrument in its case!
Turn off the unit when it is not in use! Clean with a soft cloth and
glass cleaner.

Laser class 3R
< 5 mW Ċ530 - 670 nm
EN60825-1:2007-10
Caution: Prior to using the laser, you must read the safety instructions for
laser class 3R thoroughly. Warning signs must not be removed from the laser
measuring device! Do not look directly into the beam. Lasers must be kept
out of reach of children. Never intentionally aim the device at people. This is a
quality laser measuring device and is 100% factory adjusted within the stated
tolerance. For reasons of product liability, we must also draw your attention
to the following: Regularly check the calibration before use, after transport
and after extended periods of storage. We also wish to point out that absolu-
te calibration is only possible in a specialist workshop. Calibration by yourself
is only approximate and the accuracy of the calibration will depend on the
care with which you proceed.

Special product features and functions
The rotary laser aligns itself automatically. It is set to the
required initial position (to within an operating angle of ± 5°) and the
automatic system then performs the necessary fine adjustment, with three
electronic measurement sensors detecting the X, Y and Z axes.
The anti-drift system (ADS) prevents erroneous or inaccurate
measurements. How it works: continuous monitoring of the alignment of the
laser is activated 30 seconds after the ADS is switched on. If the device
moves due to the influence of external factors or the laser loses its height
reference, the laser will come to a standstill. Additionally, the laser flashes
and the tilt LED is lit continuously. To continue working, press the tilt button
again or switch the device off then on again. Erroneous and inaccurate
measurements are thus prevented simply and reliably.
The ADS is not active following switch-on. Once the device has been set
up, press the tilt button to activate the ADS, enabling you to protect the laser
from changes in position caused by the device being disturbed by external
factors. The tilt LED flashes to indicate that the ADS function is active; see
the diagram below.

Quadrum Green: green laser technology
The distance at which a laser is visible to the naked eye depends on its colour
i.e. wavelength. This is because of the human eye's physiology – green
appears brighter to us than red. Depending on ambient light, green lasers
are therefore many times more visible than red lasers; in indoor areas this is
as much as 12 times brighter. This permits applications on dark surfaces, over
longer distances and work in very bright ambient light. A red laser with a 635
nm wavelength is used as a reference value for brightness differentiation.
In contrast to red lasers, green laser light can only be produced indirectly. This
is a source of potential characteristic fluctuations:
– The optimal operating temperature is 20°C. Outside its operating tempera-
ture range of 0 – 40°C Quadrum Green is darker. IMPORTANT: Allow the
unit enough time to adapt to the ambient temperature before switching the
unit on.
– Laser brightness may vary somewhat from one unit to another. This is a
natural phenomena and excluded from warranty claims.
– Green Laser will only work with certain Receivers. The maximum range of
the Receiver is shorter, please refer to technical details.

Do not expose batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire, etc.
Only rechargeable batteries must be charged. Used batteries must not
be disposed of as household waste. Please take them to a collection
point for used batteries or for special waste. Ask your local authority
for further details. Batteries with the recycling symbol can also be retur-
ned to our dealerships or to our Technical Service.
!
Battery charging
– Charge the device's battery completely prior to use.
– Connect the charger to mains power supply and the charging socket (I) of
the battery compartment (K). Please only use the charger supplied; using a
different charger will invalidate the warranty. The rechargeable battery can
also be charged when it is not inserted in the device.
– When the rechargeable battery is being charged, the LED on the charger
(M) lights up red. When the LED changes to green, charging is complete.
When the unit is not connected to the charger the power charger's LED
lamp will blink.
– Alkaline batteries (4 x type C) can be used as an
alternative. Insert them in the battery compart-
ment (J) as per the installation symbols.
– Insert battery (K) / battery compartment (J) into
slot (F) and secure it in place with fastening
screw (H). The electrical contacts (G) must be
connected.
– With the rechargeable battery inserted, the
device is ready to run even during charging.
– When all 3 LEDs (2, 4, 5) light up briefly and
the device switches off, the batteries must be
replaced or the rechargeable battery charged.
Insert batteries into the remote control
– Observing the correct polarity.

If the auto/man. LED flashes, the maximum adjustment range of 5° has
been reached. Set up the device horizontally, turn it off and then on

Positioning the vertical laser level
In vertical mode the laser level can be positioned exactly. "Sensor Automatic"
remains active and levels to the vertical laser level. Refer to the illustration
below.

!
If the device has been placed on a surface with too much of a slope
(more than 5°), there is a warning sound, the prism head remains stati-
onary and the laser starts to flash. The device must then be placed on a
more even surface.
!
– The device levels itself automatically to within a range of ± 5°. During the
set-up phase, the laser flashes and the prism head remains stationary. When
levelling is complete, the laser lights up continuously and rotates at maxi-
mum speed. Refer also to the sections about "Sensor Automatic" and "ADS
Tilt".
Horizontal levelling and vertical levelling
– Horizontal: Position the device on a level surface or
on a tripod.
– Vertical: Set the unit on its side feet. The operator
panel should be at the top. With the optional wall
bracket (product ref. 080.70), the device can be
mounted on a tripod for vertical usage.
– Press the "ON/OFF" switch

Steeper slopes can be set using the angle plate,
which is available as an optional extra (product
ref. 080.75). TIP: Allow the device to align itself
automatically and set the angle plate to the zero
position. Then press the auto/man button to switch
the automatic sensor off. Finally, incline the device
to the angle you require.
When the 5° maximum slope range has been reached, the laser will
stay fixed and blink. In this case, reduce the slope angle.
!
Slope function up to 5° – vertical
Slope function up to 5° – horizontal
This function deactivates the automatic sensor. To use the function, press the
auto/man button. The plus/minus buttons are used to re-adjust the slope by
means of a motor. In the process the X-and Y-axis can be adjust separately.
Refer to the illustrations below.

Working with the reference/plumb laser
The unit has two reference lasers. In horizontal
operation these lasers can be used to drop a per-
pendicular. In vertical operation these reference
lasers are used to align the unit. This is done by
adjusting the reference lasers parallel to the wall.
This aligns the vertical laser plane at a right angle
to the wall, see illustration.
Hand receiver mode
Working with the laser receiver (available as an
optional extra): Set the rotary laser to maximum
speed and switch on the laser receiver. Refer to
the operating instructions for the respective laser
receiver about this.
Scan mode
The scan button can be used to activate and set
a lightintensive segment in 4 different widths.
You position the segment via the direction but-
tons.
Spot mode
You access spot mode by pressing the rotary
button repeatedly until the laser stops rotating.
The laser can then be positioned exactly at the
measuring point by means of the direction but-
tons.
Laser modes
Rotary mode
The following speeds can be set using the rotary
button: 0, 60, 120, 300, 600 rpm
