the device or these instructions to operate it. Electrical devices may be dangerous in the
hands of untrained users .
e) Maintain electrical devices. Check for defects of parts and any other condition that may
affect the device's operation. If damaged, have the device repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained electrical devices .
f) Use the device and its accessories in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the conditions and the task to be performed. Use of the device for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation .
Service
a) Have your electrical devices serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the device is maintained .
Safety rules for laser lights
The laser used in this device is a Class 2 laser with maximum power of ≤1mW and a wavelength
of 650nm .
These lasers do not normally present an optical hazard, although staring at the beam may cause
flash blindness.
WARNING: Avoid direct eye contact.
A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam . Please observe all safety rules as follows:
• The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions
• Never aim the beam at any person, and particularly not into the eyes of any person or animal, or
any object other than the workpiece
• Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy workpiece without reflective surfaces. i.e. wood
or rough-coated surfaces are acceptable. Reflective sheet steel or similar is not suitable for laser
use as the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator
• Do not change the laser light assembly . Repairs must only be carried out by the laser
manufacturer or an authorised agent . DO NOT exchange with a different type of laser
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure .

Unpacking your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool . Familiarise yourself with all its features and functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition . If any parts are missing or
damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool
Rotary Laser Level Kit
Before Use
Inserting batteries
• Remove the cover from the battery compartment in the rear of the Rotary Laser Level Unit (3)
• Insert the batteries, making sure that the positive and negative terminals are the correct way
round, as shown on the cover of the battery housing
• Replace the cover
Setting up for levelling
• Screw the Tripod (12) into the brass fitting on the Frame (5), so that the Rotary Head (2)
is uppermost
Setting up for plumbing
• Screw the Tripod (12) into the alternative fitting (without brass insert) on the Frame (5), so that
the Control Button (8) is uppermost
In all cases
• Use the snap-fit connectors to extend and lock the tripod legs, and the winder handle to extend
the mount for the rotary laser level as needed
Calibrating the laser level
Checking horizontal rotational level:
1 . Position your Rotary Laser Level Unit (3) approximately 10m away from the wall ensuring that the
Control Button (8) is facing the wall . Use the Levelling Screws (6 & 7) to adjust the level so that
the bubble is in the centre of each vial
2 . Turn the power on for static laser beam, and rotate the Rotary Head (2) manually (if necessary) so
that the laser beam is pointing directly ahead on the wall . Mark as point A
3. Turn power off and rotate the unit 180˚ so that the back of the Rotary Laser Level Unit is now
facing the original wall
4 . Re-level the Rotary Laser Level Unit
5 . Turn the power on for static laser beam, then rotate the Rotary Head (2) so that the laser beam is
pointing onto the original wall . Mark as point B
6. Measure the vertical distance to both points A and B from the floor. No adjustments to the laser
level are necessary if the vertical measurements have a difference of 3mm or less
Correcting horizontal rotational level:
1 . Adjust the X Axis Levelling Screw (6) (adjacent to the X Vial) so the laser beam shows midway
between points A and B . This will cause the bubble in the X Vial (10) to shift from the centre .
2 . Centre the X vial bubble by adjusting the X Axis Levelling Screw with Screwdriver (11) supplied
3 . Re-check the accuracy of the laser by repeating the calibration process as necessary
Checking vertical rotational level:
1. Position the unit on its tripod on the floor approximately 15m from the base of the wall. The right
side of the unit should face the wall . Level the unit by adjusting the Y Axis Levelling Screw (7)
2 . Mark a point A on the lower part of the wall . Turn the power on and manually direct the laser
beam to point A
3 . Turn the Rotary Head (2) so the laser beam moves approximately 4 .5m upwards on the wall .
Mark as point B
4. Rotate the Rotary Laser Level Unit (3) by 180˚ so the left side of the unit faces the wall. Re-level
the unit by adjusting the Y Axis Levelling Screw . Manually direct the laser beam to point A
5 . Turn the Rotary Head so that the laser beam is at the same height as point B . Mark as point C . No
adjustments are necessary if the difference between points B and C is 2mm or less
Correcting vertical rotational level:
1 . Adjust the Y Axis Levelling Screw (7) (adjacent to the vial) so laser beam is midway between
points B and C . This will cause the bubble in the Y Vial (4) to shift from the centre
2 . Centre the Y vial bubble by adjusting the Y Axis Levelling Screw with Screwdriver (11) supplied
3 . Re-check the accuracy of the laser by repeating the calibration process as necessary
Alternative calibration method
• Using a spirit level, mark a straight horizontal line on the wall at the height required for your
project
