Safety Instructions for Lasers
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Laser Radiation Exposure. Do not disassemble or modify the laser level.
There are no user serviceable parts inside. Serious eye injury could result.
WARNING: Hazardous Radiation. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
• Do not operate the laser in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
• Use the laser only with the specifically designated batteries. Use of any other batteries
may create a risk of fire.
• Store idle laser out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Lasers are dan-
gerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one laser, may create a risk of injury when used on
another laser.
• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or mainte-
nance performed by unqualified personnel may result in injury. To locate your nearest

• Do not use optical tools such as a telescope or transit to view the laser beam. Serious
eye injury could result.
• Do not place the laser in a position which may cause anyone to intentionally or unin-
tentionally stare into the laser beam directly or off of a reflective surface. Serious eye
injury could result.
• Turn the laser off when it is not in use. Leaving the laser on increases the risk of staring
into the laser beam.
• Do not disassemble the laser tool. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
• Do not modify the laser in any way. Modifying the tool may result in Hazardous Laser
Radiation Exposure.
• Do not operate the laser around children or allow children to operate the laser.
Serious eye injury may result.
• Do not remove or deface warning labels. Removing labels increases the risk of exposure
to radiation.
• Position the laser securely on a level surface. Damage to the laser or serious injury
could result if the laser falls.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other con-
struction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas
with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious
and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory pro-
tection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
• The label on your tool may include the following symbols.
