Using the Mounting Block
On the bottom of the laser is a moveable block (Figure
• To use the magnets on the front of the laser (Figure
) to mount the laser against the side of a steel beam, do
not extend the moveable block (Figure

beam.
• To mount the laser over a point on the floor (using a multi-
function bracket or a tripod), pull out the moveable block
until it clicks in place (Figure

Turning the Laser On
1.
Place the laser on a smooth, flat, level surface, with the
laser facing straight ahead toward the opposing wall
(0º position).

Check the laser beams. The laser is designed to self-level.
• If the laser is tilted so much that it cannot self-level
(> 4°), the laser beams will continually flash twice and

the laser was exposed to extreme temperatures).
• The laser has not been checked for accuracy in
a while.
• The laser may have been dropped.
Checking Laser Accuracy
The laser tools are sealed and calibrated at the factory. It
is recommended that you perform an accuracy check prior
to using the laser for the first time (in case the laser was
exposed to extreme temperatures) and then regularly to
ensure the accuracy of your work. When performing any of
the accuracy checks listed in this manual, follow these
guidelines:
• Use the largest area/distance possible, closest to the
operating distance. The greater the area/distance, the
easier to measure the accuracy of the laser.
• Place the laser on a smooth, flat, stable surface that is
level in both directions.
• Mark the center of the laser beam.
Horizontal Beam - Scan Direction
Checking the horizontal scan calibration of the laser requires
two walls 9m (30') apart. It is important to conduct a calibration
check using a distance no shorter than the distance of the
applications for which the tool will be used.

Place the laser against the end of a 9m (30') wall
