Position the laser on a stable surface. Serious personal injury or damage to the laser may
result if the laser falls. The pivoting bracket also provides floor clearance of approximately
4.5 cm (1–3/4") which aids in the installation of steel framing track.
Transferring a Position Mark
The tool produces three laser dots (2 plumb and 1 level) to transfer a mark. For plumb use,
locate the mark with one beam and transfer the mark with the other. For level use, locate
the mark and then transfer it by rotating the laser on the integrated pivot bracket. Level
mark can be transferred through 180°.
Use the one beam to locate the mark and transfer the mark using the opposite laser beam.
Out of Tilt Range Indicator (Fig. D)
The DW083/DW083CG laser is designed to self-level. If the laser has been tilted so much
that it cannot level itself (> 4° tilt), it will flash the laser beam (Fig. D). The flashing beam
indicates the tilt range has been exceeded and
is not level (or plumb) and should not be
used for determining or marking level (or plumb).
Try repositioning the laser on a more
level surface.
Leveling the Laser
As long as the tool is properly calibrated, this tool is self-leveling. It is calibrated at the
factory to find plumb as long as it is positioned on a flat surface within 4° of level. No
manual adjustments must be made.
MAINTENANCE
Your

When not in use, store the laser in the kit box provided. Do not store your laser at
temperatures below -20 ˚C (-5 ˚F) or above 60 ˚C (140 ˚F).
Do not store your laser in the kit box if the laser is wet. The laser should be dried first with a
soft dry cloth.
