- Circular level vial
The circular vial indicates if the laser is rough leveled closely enough for the automatic compensator to take over and maintain a precise level.
- Leveling knobs
Use the leveling knobs to center the bubble in the circular level vial. The leveling knobs are also used during vertical alignment (see Vertical And Line Layout Setup).
Note: The leveling knobs are at 90° to the leveling pivot point, which is directly below the circular vial. As you face the control panel and look down at the circular vial, the leveling knob on your right controls bubble movement from left to right. The leveling knob at the back (below the battery door) controls bubble movement from front to back. Turning the leveling knob on your right in a clockwise motion will move the bubble to the right and turning the back leveling knob in a clockwise motion will move the bubble to the back. Turning either knob counter-clockwise will have the opposite effect.
- On / Off button
When the on/off button is pressed, the laser beams are projected if the circular level vial is centered, otherwise the leveling limit indicator will flash and the laser will not operate. (except in vertical mode - see Vertical And Line Layout Setup).
- Laser-on indicator
This display comes on when the laser beam is being projected.
- Leveling Limit indicator
This indicator flashes if the circular level vial is not centered enough to allow automatic compensation. (except in vertical mode - see Vertical And Line Layout Setup).
- Low battery indicator
This indicator comes on when the batteries need to be replaced.
- Vertical vial
The vertical vial is used to plumb the plane of laser light when the laser is in the vertical mode (see Vertical And Line Layout Setup).
- Battery charging jack
The charging jack is located inside the battery door next to the batteries. A rechargeable battery kit is available as an option.
- Rotate / Scan Selector Button
Use this button to change from 360° rotation to a scanning beam pattern.
- Slower Rotation / Narrower Scan Button
Slows the rotation or narrows the beam scan pattern width.
- Faster Rotation / Wider Scan Button
Speeds-up the rotation or widens the beam scan pattern width.
- X Axis Calibration Port
Access port to calibrate the laser (see Checking And Adjusting Calibration).
- Y Axis Calibration Port
Access port to calibrate the laser (see Checking And Adjusting Calibration).
- Rotating Head
Turn the rotating head by hand to aim the laser beam or scan sweep. Once you have aimed the rotating head, there may be a 2-3 second delay before the beam begins scanning.
