Setup
- Unboxing and Inspection: Carefully remove the laser level and all accessories from the carrying case. Inspect for any damage.
- Battery Installation: Ensure the battery is properly installed with correct polarity. If using for the first time, charge the battery for more than 10 hours using the provided charger.
- Mounting: Place the instrument on a stable surface, tripod, T-type wall mounting bracket, or lifting platform as needed for your application.

Operating Instructions
- Power On: Push the main power switch (3) forward to the ON position. The machine will start, and the horizontal window will automatically open, projecting four horizontal laser rays. The blisters backlight will flash, indicating it is in the receiving state.
- Horizontal Line Control: Touch the 'H' key on the control panel (1) to control the opening and closing of horizontal laser lines.
- Vertical Line Control: Touch the 'V' key on the control panel (1) once to open a vertical window. Repeat to open a second vertical window. A third touch will close both vertical windows.
- Diagonal Function (Slope Mode): Long-press the 'A' key (OUTDOOR slash switch) for more than 3 seconds. A click will be heard, and the diagonal function will be activated. You can now adjust the laser to any desired angle without alarm or flashing. Long-press the 'A' key again for more than 3 seconds to exit this function.

Measuring Deviation (Laser Schematic)
To measure deviation, follow these steps:
- Align the laser line closer to wall A and level the measuring instrument to find the intersection of the laser line on wall A and mark the center of the point (point I).
- Rotate the measuring instrument 180 degrees to level the instrument, find the intersection of the laser line on wall B, and mark the center of the point (point II).
- Move the measuring instrument closer to wall B (without rotating the measuring instrument), start the measuring instrument, and level the instrument. Adjust the height of the measuring instrument (with a tripod, if necessary, use the spacer), so that the intersection of the laser lines is accurately projected on point II of wall B.
- Rotate the measuring instrument 180 degrees, but you cannot change the height of the measuring instrument. Adjust the measuring instrument, let the vertical laser line pass through point I of wall A, let the measuring instrument level, and make a mark on the light intersection point of wall A (point III).
The difference between wall point A and point III is the actual height deviation of the measuring instrument.
You can use the following formula to calculate the maximum allowable deviation, dmax: dmax = twice the wall spacing x 0.2 mm/m.
Example: If the wall spacing is 5 meters, then the maximum allowable deviation dmax = 2x5 meters x 0.2m/m = 2 mm. Therefore, the distance between the marks should not exceed 2 mm.
Maintenance and Attentions
Daily Maintenance
- Store the machine in a dry, ventilated, constant temperature, and dust-free place.
- Wipe the shell glass frequently to ensure light transmission.
- When not in use for a long time, release the locking switch for half an hour regularly to ensure the bearing swings flexibly.
Attentions
- Non-professionals should not disassemble the machine.
- Avoid severe vibration, collision, and falling of the machine.
- Pay attention to lock the locking switch after use.
- Do not leave the battery in the machine to avoid leakage of battery liquid.
- Do not look directly at the laser line. It should be used with protective glasses.
- Do not wipe the instrument with organic solvent.
Troubleshooting
Common Problems and Solutions
- Problem: After the receiving switch is turned on, the blisters backlight flashes.
- Solution: This is a normal working signal indicating that the device is in the receiving state.
- Problem: The laser line flashes to prove the machine is not in the setting range.
- Solution: Adjust the level through the legs until the flashing stops.
- Problem: The laser line appears blurred.
- Solution: Wipe the outer glass with a clean cotton cloth.
