Working Advice

 Always use the centre of the laser line for marking. The
width of the laser line changes with the distance.
Working with the Laser Target Plate
The laser target plate 15 increases the visibility of the laser
beam under unfavourable conditions and at large distances.
The reflective part of the laser target plate 15 improves the
visibility of the laser line. Thanks to the transparent part, the
laser line is also visible from the back side of the laser target
plate.
Working with the Tripod (Accessory)
A tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable measuring support.
Position the measuring tool with the 1/4" tripod mount 9 onto
the thread of the tripod 22 or a commercially available cam-
era tripod. For fastening to a commercially available construc-
tion tripod, use the 5/8" tripod mount 8. Tighten the measur-
ing tool with the tripod mounting stud.
Fastening with the Universal Holder (Accessory)
(see figure D)
With the universal holder 19, you can fasten the measuring
tool, e.g., to vertical surfaces, pipes or magnetizable materi-
als. The universal holder is also suitable for use as a ground tri-
pod and makes the height adjustment of the measuring tool
easier.
Working with the Measuring Plate (Accessory)
(see figures A–B)
With the measuring plate 16, it is possible to project the laser
mark onto the floor or the laser height onto a wall.
With the zero field and the scale, the offset or drop to the re-
quired height can be measured and projected at another loca-
tion. This eliminates the necessity of precisely adjusting the
measuring tool to the height to be projected.
The measuring plate 16 has a reflective coating that enhances
the visibility of the laser beam at greater distances or in in-
tense sunlight. The brightness intensification can be seen on-
ly when viewing, parallel to the laser beam, onto the measur-
ing plate.
Working with the Laser Receiver (Accessory)
(see figure D)
Under unfavourable light conditions (bright environment, di-
rect sunlight) and for larger distances, use the laser receiver
for improved finding of the laser lines 17. When working with
the laser receiver, switch the pulse function on (see "Pulse
Function", page 14).
Laser Viewing Glasses (Accessory)
The laser viewing glasses filter out the ambient light. This
makes the red light of the laser appear brighter for the eyes.
 Do not use the laser viewing glasses as safety goggles.
The laser viewing glasses are used for improved visualisa-
tion of the laser beam, but they do not protect against laser
radiation.
 Do not use the laser viewing glasses as sun glasses or in
traffic. The laser viewing glasses do not afford complete
UV protection and reduce colour perception.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

Store and transport the measuring tool only in the supplied
protective pouch.
Keep the measuring tool clean at all times.
Do not immerse the measuring tool in water or other fluids.
Wipe off debris using a moist and soft cloth. Do not use any
cleaning agents or solvents.
Regularly clean the surfaces at the exit opening of the laser in
particular, and pay attention to any fluff or fibres.
If the measuring tool should fail despite the care taken in man-
ufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be carried
out by an authorised after-sales service centre for Bosch
power tools. Do not open the measuring tool yourself.
In all correspondence and spare parts orders, please always
include the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of
the measuring tool.
In case of repairs, send in the measuring tool packed in its
protective pouch 18.
