2. Mounting the Device
The CM-G02 can be mounted in several ways:

Operating Instructions
1. Power On/Off
To turn the device on, slide the pendulum lock switch to the unlocked position (usually indicated by an "ON" label). To turn off and lock the pendulum, slide the switch to the locked position (usually indicated by an "OFF" label).
2. Automatic Leveling Mode
When the pendulum lock is released (ON position), the laser level will automatically self-level within 4 degrees of inclination. If the device is outside this range, the laser lines will flash continuously, indicating it is not level. Adjust the position of the device until the laser lines stop flashing and become steady.

3. Manual Mode
To project laser lines at a specific angle (e.g., for stair railings), engage the pendulum lock (OFF position) before turning on the device. The laser lines will be locked and can be projected at any angle without self-leveling. The laser lines may flash in this mode to indicate that it is not self-leveling.

Maintenance
- Clean the device regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Keep the laser windows clean to ensure clear projection.
- Store the device in its carry bag in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use.
- Always engage the pendulum lock before storing or transporting the device to protect the internal mechanism.
- The IP54 rating protects against dust and splashing water, but the device should not be submerged.
Troubleshooting
Laser Lines are Flashing
- In Automatic Leveling Mode: If the laser lines are flashing, the device is tilted beyond its 4-degree self-leveling range. Adjust the position of the laser level until it is within this range and the lines become steady.
- In Manual Mode: Flashing lines in manual mode are normal and indicate that the pendulum is locked, and the device is not self-leveling.
No Laser Lines
- Ensure the device is powered on and the pendulum lock is in the correct position for your desired mode (unlocked for auto-leveling, locked for manual mode).
- Check the battery level. Recharge the device if the battery is low.
Inaccurate Measurements
- Ensure the device is on a stable surface and not vibrating.
- Verify that the device is within its self-leveling range if in automatic mode.
- Clean the laser emission windows.
- Environmental factors like extreme temperatures or strong light can affect accuracy.
