XLG44 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Battery Instructions & Powering Up
Place the XLG44 laser on a surface and roughly level the unit using the
adjustment feet and bubble vial. This gets the laser into electronic self
levelling range, you do not need to have the bubble perfectly central for
the laser to accurately self level.
Power up the laser by pressing the Red Power button the LED display will
light up indicating battery level and any laser lines that where previously
selected. You will hear an electronic motor sound as the laser levels and
the front vertical will light up indicating self levelling. Once levelled the
front vertical will power down (if not selected) and the selected lines will
illuminate.
Select your desired Horizontal and Vertical Lines using the “H” and “V” toggle
buttons. Each press will increase the number of lines, the next press after
all four are selected will return to 0 lines for either the Horizontal or Vertical
axis.
The Display indicates which lines have been selected. Note the red plumb
dot down automatically powers on when one or more vertical lines have
been selected.
If you rotate the laser or move it when powered up the laser will need to re-
levelandtheselectedlinesashmomentarilywhilethlaserquicklyre-levels.
Handy Hints
• Prior to initial use, charge the rechargeable batteries for at least 4
hours.
• Remember the XLG44 can operate using standard “AA” batteries when
rechargeable pack is out of charge, or charging outside of the laser.
• When using the standard “AA” batteries remove from laser if not being
used for some time to prevent leakage.
TooperaterstplaceeithertheLi-ionbatteryor“AA”batteryholder
complete with “AA” batteries into the battery compartment and lightly
tighten the screw.

Selecting Modes (Pulse/Dim)
Tripods & Charging
The XLG44 can be mounted on an indoor tripod with survey thread such as
the IET150. Note that the adjustment feet will not help to level the laser,
you will need to use the tripod legs.
The Li-ion battery can be charged either when attached to the laser or
when detached using the charger supplied, Do not use any other charger
or power adaptor.
Laser Lines with Embedded Dots
One of the outstanding features of the RedBack XLG44 apart from its ultra
bright Laser Lines is its even brighter integrated laser dots.
Each of the Vertical and Horizontal lines has an embedded dot which
corresponts with the laser lines. These dots are more visible when trying to
use the XLG44 visibly outdoors.
When you cannot see the lines or dots outside thats were using a laser
receiver comes in handy.
The “M” Mode button toggles through Pulse Mode, Dim Mode and back to
Normal Mode.
Pulse mode allows you to use an OPTIONAL line receiver such as the LLR705
receiver or LLRMM30 Receiver for use outdoors up to a range of 40m in all
light conditions. Ideal for Decking, Stumps etc when the ambient light is too
bright to visibly see the lines. When pulse mode is active the letter “P” will
show in the display. Note: the LLR705 is included in the XLG44+ package
and the LLRMM30 is included in the XLG44+MM and XLG44XXL packages.
Dim mode diminishes the intensity of the beam making it more comfortable
to use in low light conditions and saving battery power. When this mode is
active the letter “D” with a line through it will show on the display.

First insert batteries in both the motorised base and receiver. Next
determinewhichthreadtsthelaseryouareusingandscrewitintothe
base of the laser. The laser can now be mounted onto the motorised base
and the locking nut tightened.
The motorised base is powered up by pressing the power button on one of
its corners and the red LED should indicate it is powered up. Next power
up the required vertical laser lines on your laser as per the instructions for
your laser. Also put your laser into outdoor pulse mode.
Next power up the tracking receiver by pressing the red power button on
the receiver. The receiver will now operate like a standard line receiver
picking up both the horizontal line when up right and vertical lines when
the receiver is placed on its side. For vertical auto alignment whilst using
the rotating base the receiver needs to be on its side.
To activate the tracking feature on the receiver press the “AUTO” button on
the side of the receiver the LED next to it should light up. If the LED does
not illuminate when you press it then make sure that the tracking control
panel is upright and try again. To start the tracking feature press either of
the arrow buttons and the rotation base will begin to rotate.

As one of the vertical laser lines on your laser level passes the receiver’s
sensor the receiver will begin beeping and the rotation base will either
slowdown, stop or change rotation direction. Over a number of seconds
the base will align up with the receiver and lock on, this will be indicated by
the receiver having a solid tone followed by a double beep before returning
to the solid tone again. Once locked on, the receiver can be picked up
and moved around your site for alignment or squaring. Note to be able to
square your laser you will require at least two vertical lines at 90 degrees
to each other.

Technical Specications
AllRedbackLasershavebeencheckedforcalibrationandcertiedbyone
of our technicians here in Australia prior to despatch and should under
normal conditions not go out of calibration.  A calibration certied sticker
with the date and name of technician is located on the laser itself. It is
worth checking calibration from time to time particularly after any known
knocks or drops. An easy way to continually check calibration is to always
doublecheckyouworkwiththelaserlocatedinadierentpositionoruse
an alternate vertical line. Various other methods for checking calibration can
be found at www.redbacklasers.com.au/downloads or the laser can
be returned to our service department for checking and re-calibration. We
atRedbackLasersprovideaonceofreecalibrationandcheckwithinthe
duration of the warranty period see page 12 for details.

Durationofwarrantyisxedandautomatic,whenweadvertise2yearsonaparticularmodel,
its TWO years. No drop down to a lesser time if you forget to register, registration is NOT
required just proof of purchase showing date.
Although the duration of our warranties are for a particular period it does not mean we will
charge you for a genuine warranty failure a month or two outside that warranty period, we
believe in a fair go.
Even though a product shows signs of accidental damage, scratches and the like, we will not
automatically fail the warranty claim, if the fault is NOT caused by a drop or misuse and is a
genuine warranty failure then we will cover it.
Calibration is not covered by warranty much the same as the wheel balance on your car is not
