LASER EN HANCEMENT GLASSES (FIG. 7)
These red lens glasses improve the visibility of the
laser beam under bright light conditions or over
long distances when the laser is used for interior
applications. These glasses are not required to
operate the laser.
DANGER: To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, never stare directly into
the laser beam, with or without these
glasses.
CAUTION: These glasses are not
approved safety glasses and should
not be worn while operating other tools.
These glasses do not keep the laser
beam from entering your eyes.
TARGET CARD (FIG. 8)
The Laser Target Card aids in locating and marking
the laser beam. The target card enhances the
visibility of the laser beam as the beam crosses over
the card. The card is marked with standard and
metric scales. The laser beam passes through the
red plastic and reflects off of the reflective tape on
the reverse side. The magnet at the top of the card
is designed to hold the target card to ceiling track or
steel studs to determine plumb and level positions.
For best performance when using the Target Card,
the D
E
WALT logo should be facing you.
DIGITAL LASER DETECTOR (FIG. 9)
The detector helps in locating the position of a
laser beam in bright light conditions or over long
distances. It produces both visual and audio signals
as the rotating laser beam crosses the detector.
The detector can be used both indoors and
outdoors whenever it is difficult to locate the laser
beam.
The detector is not for use with non-rotating lasers
but is compatible with most rotary red-beam or
infrared (invisible) beam lasers on the market.
The D
E
WALT Digital Laser Detector can be used
with or without the detector clamp. When used
with the clamp, the detector can be positioned on a
grade rod, leveling pole, stud or post.
Accuracy
When the laser is operated using the detector, the
accuracy level of the detector needs to be added to
that of the laser.
• Nominal accuracy ± 3.0 mm
Mounting Detector on a Grade Rod (fig. 9)
1. To secure your detector to a grade rod, first
attach the detector to the clamp by pushing in
on the clamp latch (bb). Slide the tracks (cc) on
the clamp around the rail (dd) on the detector
until the latch (ee) on the clamp pops into the
latch hole (ff) on the detector.
2. Open the jaws of the clamp by turning the
clamp knob (gg) counterclockwise.
3. Position the detector at the height needed and
turn the clamp knob clockwise to secure the
clamp on the rod.
4. To make adjustments in height, slightly loosen
the clamp, reposition and retighten.

WALT laser unit has been designed to
operate over a long period of time with a minimum
of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper laser care and regular
cleaning.
