Introduction
Thank you for choosing one of the Spectra Precision Lasers from the Trimble family of precision lasers.
The grade laser is an easy-to-use tool that offers accurate horizontal, vertical and sloped laser reference up
to 1300 ft (400 m) away using a receiver.
For Your Safety
For hazardless and safe operation, read all the user guide instructions.
• Useofthisproductbypeopleotherthanthosetrainedonthisproductmayresultinexposuretohazardous
laser light.
• Donotremovewarninglabelsfromtheunit.
• TheGL622/GL612isaclass2laser(<3,4mW)IEC60825-1:2007)
• Neverlookintothelaserbeamordirectittotheeyesofotherpeople.
• Alwaysoperatetheunitinawaythatpreventsthebeamfromgettingintopeople‘seyes.
• Ifinitialserviceisrequired,whichresultsintheremovaloftheouterprotectivecover,removalmustonlybe
performed by factory-trained personnel.

HOW TO USE THE LASER SYSTEM
POWERING THE LASER
Batteries WARNING
Ni-MHbatteriesmaycontainsmallamountsofharmfulsubstances.Besuretochargethebattery
beforeusingitforthefirsttime,andafternotusingitforanextendedlengthoftime.Chargeonlywith
specifiedchargersaccordingtodevicemanufacturer‘sinstructions.Donotopenthebattery,dispose
ofinfireorshortcircuit;itmayignite,explode,leakorgethotcausingpersonalinjury.Disposein
accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations. Keep the battery away from
children.Ifswallowed,donotinducevomiting.Seekmedicalattentionimmediately
Recharging the Batteries
ThelaserisshippedwitharechargeableNi-MHbatterypack.
Note: TheapproximatechargeofthebatteriesisshownatthelefttopsideoftheLCD.
Thechargerrequiresapprox.10hourstochargeemptyrechargeablebatteries.
Forcharging,connecttheplugofthechargertotherechargejackofthebatterypack.
Neworlong-timeout-of-userechargeablebatteriesreachtheirbestperformanceafter
beingchargedandrechargedfivetimes.ForIndoorapplicationsthechargercanbe
usedasapowersupplyfortheGL.
Alkalinebatteriescanbeusedasabackup.Insert4D-cellbatteriesnotingtheplus
(+) and minus (-) diagrams inside the battery housing.
The batteries should only be charged when the laser is between 50° F and 104° F (10°C to
40°C). Charging at a higher temperature may damage the batteries. Charging at a lower
temperature may increase the charge time and decrease the charge capacity, resulting in
loss of performance and shortened life expectancy.
RC602 Radio Remote Control
Powering the RC602
1. Open the battery door using a coin or similar pry device to release the
batterydoortabontheRC602.RC602willbeshippedwithalkaline
batteries Rechargeable batteries can be used optional but need to
bechargedexternally
2.InserttwoAAbatteriesnotingtheplus(+)andminus(-)diagrams
inside the battery housing.
3.Close the battery door. Push down until it “clicks” into the locked
position.
Turning On/Off the Radio Remote Control
The radio remote control is a hand-held device that allows you to send operational commands to the laser
from a remote location.
Pressthepowerbuttontoturnontheradioremotecontrol.A“ ”andadditionalverticalbarsappearinthe
right corner of the remote’s top display line indicating the radio connection status between the laser and the
remote control.
Note:Whentheremotecontrolisinitiallyturnedon,thestandarddisplay(modelnumberandsoftwareversion)
appearforthefirst3seconds,thentheaxessymbolsandlast-enteredgradeforeachaxisbrieflyappearin
theLCD.
Witheverybuttonpress,theLCDbacklightisactivatedandturnsoffautomaticallyifnobuttonispressedfor
8seconds.
To turn off the radio remote control, press and release the power button.
Note:5minutesafterthelastbuttonpress,theremotecontrolturnsoffautomatically.

LASER SETUP
Position the laser horizontally (tripod mount and rubber feet downward!) on a stable platform, wall mount or
tripod at the desired elevation.
The laser recognizes automatically whether it is used horizontally or vertically when switched on.
Turning On/Off the laser
PressthepowerbuttontoturnOn/Offthelaser.
Note:Dependingonthesetup(horizontalorvertical)andifagradevaluehasbeendialedin,theunitstarts
thetemperature/referencecheckwhilethethermometersymbolisflashing.
Whenthetemperature/referencecheckhasbeenfinished,thestandarddisplayappearsandthebubblesymbols
flash until self-leveling has been completed.
Iftheself-levelingcan’tbefinishedbasedontheselectedsensitivity,anerrormessageappears.

CALIBRATION
Checking Calibration of the Y- and X-Axes
1. Set up the laser 30 m (100 ft) from a wall and allow it to level.
2. Setthegradeto0.000%inbothaxes.
3. Raise/lowerthereceiveruntilyougetanon-gradereadingforthe+Yaxis.Using
the on-grade marking notch as a reference, make a mark on the wall.
Note: Forincreasedprecision,usethefine-sensitivitysetting(1.5mm/1/16in.)on
the receiver.
4.Rotatethelaser180°(-Yaxistowardthewall)andallowthelasertore-level.
5.Raise/lowerthereceiveruntilyougetanon-gradereadingforthe–Y/axis.Usingthe
on-grade marking notch as a reference, make a mark on the wall.
6.Measurethedifferencebetweenthetwomarks.Iftheydiffermorethan3mmat30
m(1/8inchat100feet),thelaserneedscalibrating.
7.AftercheckingtheY-axis,rotatethelaser90°.Repeattheabovestartingwiththe
+Xaxisfacingthewall.
Checking Calibration of the Z-(vertical) Axis
To check vertical calibration, you need a plumb bob with at least 10m (30ft) of string.
1. Suspend the plumb bob in front of a house i.e., attached to a window frame whose window height is at least
10m (30ft).
2.Setupthelaserinverticalsothatthelaserbeamstrikesthereceiver’son-gradepositionatthetopofthestring.
3.Lookforanydeviationusingthereceiverfromthetopofthestringtothebottomofit.Ifthedeviationismore
than1mm(<1/16in.),theverticalaxisneedscalibrating.
Note:Ifcalibrationisrequired,please,refertothecalibrationinstructionsonourTrimblewebsite
