The PLS HR 1000 is a self-leveling laser
used for exterior horizontal layout. The
rechargeable NIMH battery pack contains
micro-controlled charging technology. The
HR1000 may also be used with alkaline
batteries in an optional separate battery pack.
CAUTION: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHARGE
STANDARD ALKALINE BATTERIES OR
WARRANTY WILL BE VOIDED.
The instrument is water resistant and may be
used in light rain, if necessary. Unit may not be
submerged in water.

SAFTEY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety instructions
Laser Safety
The PLS HR 1000 is a class IIl laser accord-
ing to 21CFR1040. Follow the instructions on
the warning labels which are shown in the
following illustrations:
Do not remove the attached warning labels.
The manufacturer and its dealers are not
liable for any defects and the consequences
from this removal.
! Attention ! The internal laser sources
comply with laser classes II and III. Do
not disassemble the instrument. In case
of inappropriate repairs, laser radiation
may arise in excess amounts of the marked
labels and liability may be incurred if there
is damage. In cases of inappropriate
processing, malfunctions are possible
without external visible damage.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHARGE
STANDARD ALKALINE BATTERIES.
Attention: This instrument contains NIMH
rechargeable batteries. Batteries must be
recycled or disposed of properly.
WEEE-Reg.: DE23874031
The PLS HR 1000 uses rechargeable
NIMH batteries.
For on-board chargeable battery, insert
the battery re-charger receptacle plug in
the charging panel outlet of the battery
cover back.
Insert converter's AC receptacle plug in an AC
outlet and insert the converter's DC receptacle
plug in the charging panel's
DC outlet.
When the charging lamp is on, charging
is in process.
When the charging lamp is green, charging is
completed.
NOTE: The charging process takes approxi-
mately 7 hours to complete for rechargeable
batteries.
AC/DC
converter's
suitable power
range:
50-60Hz;
voltage
85V-265V.
If it is necessary to replace the NIMH battery,
the battery chamber may be removed by
turning the lock washer on the battery
chamber. Purchase replacement battery
chamber from an authorized PLS dealer.
Use PLS HR 1000 with caution in humid
or wet weather conditions. Do not put the
laser back into the case unless it is
thoroughly dry. Condensation may corrode
the battery connections and/or cause
distortion of beams in lighthouse.

KEYPAD OPERATION
FUNCTIONS AND INDICATORS
1) Power switch: turn on or off unit.
2) Power light: red light, power on.
3) Low Battery lndicator: LED blinks,
the battery should be charged or replaced.
4) Tilt or ADS (automatic drift system) blinks
slowly when active, blinks quickly to warn
user of a change in alignment from original
set up.

LIGHT
Press 1 (See keypad chart) The unit
is self-leveling and power light is lit. Press
the key again and the unit will turn off.
Rotation Mode
After laser has automatically leveled, the
laser beam stops blinking. The laser will
rotate at 1000 r.p.m. If the gradient exceeds
±5º, the laser will not rotate.
NOTE: If the unit does not level within 5
minutes, it will shut off.
Automatic Drift System
Press 4. Press the TILT key, the power
indicator blinks slowly. After the instrument
has leveled automatically for about 3
seconds, the ADS function is activated.
The power indicator will blink quickly, and
automatic leveling function shuts off when
the instrument is disturbed by external
circumstances. At the same time, the laser
module will stop scanning and start blinking.
Power switch

APPLICATIONS
Turn the
instrument
on. The
leveling
LED is flashing and the instrument
is self leveling. If the LED lights continuously
the rotary head starts and the laser beam will
be turned on. Attach the PLS HVD 505R
Detector at this reference point on a rod and
move this height to zero. Now the respective
difference in levels to the reference height
can be measured on the ground. It is useful
to use a flexible rod to measure positive and
negative values simply.

(Leveling)
.................................................. The PLS HR 1000 should be checked, like
all measuring instruments, before use. Set
the PLS HR 1000 on a stable surface. Turn
the laser on and let it level. Mount the PLS
HVD 505R Detector at a fixed distance, e.g.
at 90 feet, and move it onto the laser plane.
Now turn the instrument around to each 90°
point and let the instrument level. In each
case, measure the difference to the first
height. If the deviation is smaller than 3/32
inch, the instrument is within the specifica-
tion. In the case of larger deviations the
instrument has to be calibrated.
