2.2 Intended use
The ATLAS GREEN is a line laser that enables a single person to level and align plumb points as well as
90 degree angles horizontally and vertically.
The device is designed to be preferably used indoors. For outdoor applications, it must be ensured that
the ambient conditions are similar to those indoors.
The visibility range of the laser lines depends on the ambient conditions.
In low light conditions or for long distances, the hand-held receiver can be used to locate the laser line
position (the hand-held receiver is not included in the standard delivery, but can be ordered as an option).
Follow the instructions contained in this manual. The device and accessory equipment may be a source
of danger if they are utilised improperly or inappropriately by persons who are not adequately instructed.

The electromagnetic compatibility is the ability of the product to function in an environment where
electromagnetic radiation and electrostatic discharge are present, without causing electromagnetic
interference to other devices.
4.5.1 Interference of other devices by ATLAS GREEN
Although the product meets the strict requirements of the relevant directives and standards, SOLA can
not completely exclude the possibility of interference with other devices (for example, when using the
product in combination with third-party devices, such as field computers, personal computers, wireless
devices, mobile phones, certain cables or external batteries).
When using computers and radio equipment make sure to observe the vendor-specific information
about electromagnetic compatibility.
Only use original SOLA equipment and accessories.
4.5.2 Interference of the ATLAS GREEN by other devices
Although the product meets the strict requirements of the relevant directives and standards, SOLA can
not entirely exclude the possibility that intense electromagnetic radiation in the immediate vicinity of radio
transmitters, two-way radios, diesel generators, etc. can distort the measurement results.
When performing measurements under these conditions check the plausibility of the results.

The product corresponds to Laser class 2 according to DIN EN 60825-1:2014.
Laser class 2:
With class 2 laser devices, eyes are protected by the the blink reflex and/or the aversion responses in the
event that a person accidentally looks at the laser for a short time.
WARNING
Looking directly into the laser beam with optical aids (such as binoculars, telescopes) can be
dangerous.
WARNING
Looking directly into the laser beam can damage the eyes.
Do not look into the laser beam.
Do not point the laser beam at other people.

7. Operation
7.1 ATLAS GREEN
Switching the laser on/o
On:
Turn the on/o switch, transport lock to the right (ON position) and the pendulum unit will be released.
The device transmits the horizontal 360° line from the output aperture. To turn o the vertical 360° line,
press V on the keypad.
The instrument will level itself automatically within the specified inclination range
(see Chapter 3/Technical data).
O:
Turn the on/o switch, transport lock to the left (OFF position) and the pendulum unit will be locked;
the laser lines will disappear.
NOTE
Magnets can aect the measurement instrument and lead to false results.
If the vertical laser line is not projected vertically to the wall or to the target surface, uneven surfaces can
lead to erroneous measurement results.
Make sure that the vertical laser line is projected vertically to the wall or to the target surface.
Severe temperature fluctuations can lead to erroneous measurement results.
Before start-up, allow the device to acclimatise to the environmental conditions.
The laser lines will flash every 30 seconds when the battery capacity falls below 10%.
Recharge the battery regularly or ensure additional batteries are available.
7.1.2 PULSE mode
The REC LRD0 receiver can be used to detect the laser lines at even greater distances or in unfavourable
environmental conditions. The pulse mode is active at all times for the ATLAS.

EN
7.1.3 Creating inclinations beyond the range of automatic levelling
On:
Turn the on/o switch, transport lock to the left (OFF position).
Press and hold the tilt key for 5 seconds to start the tilt function.
Press the V key to switch on the vertical lines.
Press the H key to switch o the horizontal lines.
To indicate that the self-levelling is switched o, the lines will blink every 4 seconds.
O:
Briefly press the tilt key to exit the tilt function.
CAUTION
If the laser line is not projected vertically to the surface or the surface is uneven, this can lead
to erroneous measurement results.
Make sure that the laser line is projected vertically to the wall or to the target surface.

8. Checking the accuracy
Check the accuracy of the ATLAS GREEN before each measurement.
Before starting the check, let the device acclimatise to the environmental conditions.
8.1 Checking the accuracy of the vertical line
Attach a plumb line as close as possible possible to a (at least)
3 m high wall.
Mount the ATLAS GREEN onto a tripod at a height of approx.
1.2 m.
Position the device approx. 3 m in front of the plumb line.
Switch on the ATLAS GREEN and project the vertical laser line
onto the plumb line.
If the deviation is greater than 4 mm, the device must be readjus-
ted. In this case, consult your dealer.
8.2 Checking the leveling accuracy
of the horizontal line
1. Select two horizontal, flat walls (A & B), which are approx.
10 meters apart.
Mount the ATLAS GREEN onto a tripod and position it at a
distance of approx. 20 cm from wall A.
Mark the intersecting point of the vertical and horizontal
lines on wall A.
2. Rotate the ATLAS GREEN by 180° and mark point
on wall B.
Position the laser at the same height approx. 20 cm
away from wall B and mark point on wall B.
3. Rotate the ATLAS GREEN by 180° and mark point
on wall A.
Measure the vertical distance of the marked points
- and the vertical spacing of the points - .
