Setup

Battery Installation and Charging

The Firecore G50 comes with two 3.7V / 4000mAh rechargeable Li-ion batteries. One battery is pre-installed. To install or replace a battery, open the battery compartment located at the bottom of the unit. Insert the battery, ensuring correct polarity, and close the compartment securely.

Batteries can be charged either while inside the unit or separately. To charge the unit directly, connect the provided Type-C charging cable to the charging port on the side of the laser level. The individual batteries also feature a Type-C charging port, allowing them to be charged independently. A full charge provides 7 hours of continuous use per battery, totaling 14+ hours with both batteries.

Mounting the Laser Level

The Firecore G50 can be mounted using its magnetic bracket or a standard tripod. The magnetic bracket features strong magnets for attachment to metal surfaces and a 1/4-inch screw thread for connecting to the laser level. The bracket also allows for fine vertical adjustment using a knob.

Operating Modes

The Firecore G50 offers multiple operating modes to suit various leveling needs.

Self-Leveling Mode

To activate self-leveling mode, slide the power switch to the 'ON' position. The laser will automatically level itself within ±4°. If the unit is outside this range, the laser lines will flash to indicate it cannot self-level. This mode is ideal for ensuring perfectly level and plumb lines for standard applications.

Manual Mode

For applications requiring lines at specific angles (e.g., diagonal lines), the manual mode can be used. To enter manual mode, ensure the power switch is 'OFF'. Then, press and hold the brightness button for 3 seconds. The laser lines will be locked in position, allowing you to project lines at any desired angle without self-leveling.

Pulse Mode

The pulse mode extends the working range of the laser up to 165 ft when used with an optional FD30 laser receiver. To activate pulse mode, press the brightness button while in self-leveling or manual mode. The laser lines will flash every 5 seconds, indicating pulse mode is active. This is particularly useful for outdoor use or in bright conditions where the laser lines might otherwise be difficult to see.

Brightness Adjustment

The laser level features three levels of brightness adjustment to optimize visibility in different lighting conditions and conserve battery life. Press the brightness button to cycle through the different brightness settings.

Remote Control Functionality

The included remote control allows for convenient adjustment of laser lines and brightness from up to 33 ft away, even through walls. This feature is particularly useful when the laser level is set up in a hard-to-reach location or when you need to make adjustments without disturbing the unit.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and accuracy of your Firecore G50 Laser Level, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Keep the laser level clean and free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
• Avoid exposing the unit to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
• Store the laser level in its portable bag when not in use to protect it from damage.
• Ensure batteries are fully charged before long-term storage to maintain battery health.

Troubleshooting

If your laser level is not functioning as expected, refer to the following common issues and solutions:

• Laser lines are flashing: This indicates the unit is outside its ±4° self-leveling range. Adjust the position of the laser level until the lines stop flashing and become stable.
• Laser lines are dim: Adjust the brightness setting using the brightness button on the unit or the remote control. Ensure batteries are fully charged.
• Unit does not power on: Check that the power switch is in the 'ON' position and that the batteries are properly installed and charged.
