The detector gives both visual signals through the LCD display window (A) and audio signals 
through the speaker (B) to indicate the location of the laser beam. 
The D

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. 

INTENDED USE

The D

E

WALT Digital Laser Detector helps in locating a laser beam emitted by the laser in bright 

light conditions or over long distances. The detector can be used in both indoor and outdoor 
situations where it is difficult to see the laser beam. 
The detector is designed exclusively for use with the DW088 and DW089 line laser and other 
compatible D

E

WALT line lasers. 

It is not for use with rotating lasers.

 

DO NOT 

use under wet conditions or in presence of flammable liquids or gases.

The digital laser detector is a professional laser accessory.

DO NOT

 let children come into contact with the attachment and laser. Supervision is required 

when inexperienced operators use this laser.

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS

 WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power 

source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or when making 
repairs.

 An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Batteries (Fig. 1)

The digital laser detector is powered by a 9-volt battery. To install the battery provided, lift up 
on the battery compartment cover (C). Place the 9-volt battery in the compartment, aligning the 
battery as shown on the embossed icon.

Detector Controls (Fig. 1)

The detector is controlled by the power button (E) and the volume button (F). 
When the power button is pushed once, the detector is turned on. The top of the sensor window 
shows the ON icon and the volume icon. 
The D

E

WALT Digital Laser Detector also has an auto shut-off feature. If a laser beam does not 

strike the beam detection window, or if no buttons are pressed, the detector will shut itself off 
in about 5 minutes.
To turn off the audible signal push the button again; the volume icon will disappear. 
The detector powers up in the narrow accuracy setting (icon appears in the lower left corner). 
Press the accuracy button (G) once to change to wide accuracy setting (icon now appears in 
the lower right corner).

Accuracy

The detector provides two accuracy settings, wide and narrow. In the wide setting, the detector 
provides a larger tolerance for indicating that the detector is “on grade.” In the narrow setting, 
this tolerance is reduced for more accurate indication of “on grade.”
For the most accurate results, start the work using the wide setting and finish in the narrow 
setting.

Magnets (Fig. 1)

The magnets (H) allow the detector to be mounted to the metal tracks during the installation of 
a suspended ceiling.
