OPERATION

TRIPOD MOUNTING

See Figure 8.
The laser level vacuum base has a standard 1/4 in.-20
threaded fitting for attaching to a tripod (not included). This
method of mounting is ideal for leveling kitchen cabinets,
countertops, window framing, and more.

ADJUSTING THE LASER LINE

See Figure 8 - 9.
The laser level will project a straight line across an obstruction
or interference, as well as around inside corners and onto
adjacent surfaces. The line can be adjusted in three ways:
�n The line can be rotated by turning the laser head in a

clockwise or counterclockwise direction to achieve full
360° coverage.

�n The line can be rotated up to 90°, from vertical to hori-

zontal, by rotating the laser head away from the mounting
surface.

The line can also be rotated 90° by lifting the lens cover
and turning the lens in a clockwise or counterclockwise
direction.

OPERATING THE LASER LEVEL

See Figures 9 - 11.
�n Place the level in the area where you want the laser line

projected. Refer to

Using the AIRgrip Vacuum earlier in

this manual if adhering to a surface is desired.

��n Turn on the laser.
n

Rotate the laser head to position the laser line as de-
sired.

NOTE: The line position adjustment thumbwheel can
be used to adjust the laser line

± 1/2 in. Turn the wheel

clockwise to move the laser line slightly down, or coun-
terclockwise to move the line slightly up. A measurement
scale is marked on the base for reference.

��n For best self-leveling results, always position laser head

so that face of angle indicator dial is perpendicular to the
direction of gravity.

NOTE: Due to construction inaccuracy, walls may not be
perfectly straight. This may cause the laser to have slight
variances when in the level position.
