Assembly
Power Supply of the Surface Laser
The measuring tool can either be operated with commercially
available batteries or with a Bosch lithium ion battery pack.
Operation with Batteries (see figure B)
Alkali-manganese batteries are recommended for the meas-
uring tool.
For installation and removal of the batteries, the measuring
tool's height adjustment must be set to the lowest position.
For this, turn the thumbwheel for height adjustment 9 in anti-
clockwise direction to the stop.
To open the battery lid 7, press on the latch 6 and fold the bat-
tery lid up. Insert the batteries. When inserting, pay attention
to the correct polarity according to the representation on the
inside of the battery lid.
Always replace all batteries at the same time. Only use batter-
ies from one brand and with the identical capacity.
Remove the batteries from the measuring tool when
not using it for extended periods. When storing for ex-
tended periods, the batteries can corrode and discharge
themselves.
Operation with Battery Pack (see figure C)
Use only original Bosch lithium ion battery packs with
the voltage listed on the nameplate of your measuring
tool. Using other battery packs can lead to injuries and
pose a fire hazard.
Note: Use of battery packs not suitable for the measuring tool
can lead to malfunctions of or cause damage to the measuring
tool.
Note: The battery pack is supplied partially charged. To en-
sure full capacity of the battery pack, completely charge the
battery pack in the battery charger before using your measur-
ing tool for the first time.
Use only the battery chargers listed on the accessories
page. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lith-
ium ion battery pack that can be used in your measuring
tool.
The Lithium-Ion battery pack can be charged at any time with-
out reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging proce-
dure does not damage the battery pack.
The battery pack is equipped with a NTC temperature control
which allows charging only within a temperature range of be-
tween 0 °C and 45 °C. A long battery pack service life is
achieved in this manner.
For installation and removal of the battery pack 23, the meas-
uring tool's height adjustment must be set to the lowest posi-
tion. For this, turn the thumbwheel for height adjustment 9 in
anticlockwise direction to the stop.
To insert the battery pack 23, press on the latch 6 and fold the
battery lid 7 up. Slide the charged battery pack completely in-
to the battery compartment and close the battery lid.
To remove the battery pack 23, press on the latch 6 and fold
the battery lid 7 up. Pull the battery pack out of the battery
compartment.

Power Supply of the Remote Control (GSL 2 Set)
Using alkali-manganese batteries is recommended for opera-
tion of the remote control.
To open the battery lid 20, press on the latch 21 and remove
the battery lid. Insert the batteries. When inserting, pay atten-
tion to the correct polarity according to the representation on
the inside of the battery lid.
Always replace all batteries at the same time. Only use batter-
ies from one brand and with the identical capacity.
Remove the batteries from the remote control when
not using it for longer periods. When storing for longer
periods, the batteries can corrode and discharge them-
selves.
Operation
Starting Operation of the Surface Laser
Protect the measuring tool against moisture and direct
sun light.
Do not subject the measuring tool to extreme tempera-
tures or variations in temperature. As an example, do
not leave it in vehicles for long time. In case of large varia-
tions in temperature, allow the measuring tool to adjust to
the ambient temperature before putting it into operation.
In case of extreme temperatures or variations in tempera-
ture, the accuracy of the measuring tool can be impaired.
Avoid heavy impact to or falling down of the measuring
tool. After severe external impacts, have the levelling
accuracy of the measuring tool checked through an author-
ised service agent for Bosch power tools.
Switch the measuring tool off during transport. When
switching off, the levelling unit, which can be damaged in
case of intense movement, is locked.
Setting Up the Measuring Tool
Set up the measuring tool on the floor surface to be checked,
ensuring that it is firmly positioned.
The levelling accuracy can be influenced through the ambient
temperature. Especially temperature differences occurring
from the ground upward can deflect the laser beam. As the
thermal layering is greatest at ground level, the measuring
tool should always be set up in the centre of the floor surface
to be checked.
