If the laser has been tilted so much that it cannot

self-level (> 4°), the laser beam will flash. There are
two flashing sequences associated with the out of
level condition.
• Between 4° and 10° the beams flash with a constant
blink cycle
• At angles greater than 10° the beams flash with a
three blink cycle.
When the beams flash THE LASER IS NOT LEVEL
(OR PLUMB) AND SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR
DETERMINING OR MARKING LEVEL OR PLUMB.
Try repositioning the laser on a more level surface.
Using the Pivot Bracket
The laser has a magnetic pivot bracket (Figure
permanently attached to the unit.
WARNING:
Position the laser and/or wall mount
on a stable surface. Serious personal injury
or damage to the laser may result if the
laser falls.
• The bracket has a fine adjustment knob
(Figure
) to help you line up the laser beams. Place the
J 2
unit on a flat level surface and turn the knob to the
right to move the beams to the right, or turn the knob
to the left to move the beams to the left.
• The bracket has a keyhole slot (Figure
be hung from a nail or screw on any kind of surface.
• The bracket has magnets (Figure
the unit to be mounted to most upright surfaces
made of steel or iron. Common examples of suitable
surfaces include steel framing studs, steel door
frames, and structural steel beams. Before attaching
the pivot bracket against a stud (Figure

Maintenance
• To maintain the accuracy of your work, check the
laser often to make sure it is properly calibrated.
See Field Calibration Check.
• Calibration checks and other maintenance repairs
may be performed by D
• When not in use, store the laser in the kit box
provided. Do not store your laser at temperatures
below -5 ˚F (-20 ˚C ) or above 140 ˚F (60 ˚C).
• Do not store your laser in the kit box if the laser is
wet. The laser should be dried first with a soft dry
cloth prior to storage.
Cleaning

H 1
Exterior plastic parts may be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Although these parts are solvent resistant, NEVER use
solvents. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove moisture from
the tool before storage.
Troubleshooting
The Laser Does Not Turn On
• Fully-charge the battery pack and then reinstall it in
the laser unit.
• If the laser unit is heated above 120 ˚F (50 ˚C), the
unit will not turn on. If the laser has been stored
in extremely hot temperatures, allow it to cool.
