IMPORTANT: It is the responsibility of the user to verify the
calibration of the instrument before each use.

Battery Installation
Unscrew the cover on the back top of the unit and insert four “AA”
batteries (not included). Follow polarity on housing.

Note: Used/discharged batteries are hazardous waste and must be
disposed of properly.

Tripod Set-up

Open up the tripod and position it firmly on a surface that is even
and as near level as possible. For uneven surfaces and inclines,
compensate by adjusting the telescoping legs of the tripod. Tightly
screw the unit and tripod together.

Tripod working range from 17" to 47".

The laser can be used either with the tripod or independently.

Leveling the Laser

Bring the unit into a level position by means of the horizontal “X” and
“Y” adjusting screws (top mounted vials for horizontal application)
and one (1) vertical “Z” adjusting screw (one side mounted vial for
vertical application).

To obtain accurate measures, use the leveling screws found on the
mounting base and ensure that the bubble in each vial is perfectly
centered.
