Changing the laser line generator batteries 

1.  Ensure that the laser line generator is switched OFF by 

checking that the laser lswitch (1) has been pulled up.

2.  Turn the battery cover (4) anticlockwise and remove 

the cap. 

3.  Remove and replace both AA batteries, taking care 

to insert the new batteries with the correct polarity. 

4.  Replace the battery cover (4) by turning it clockwise. 

CAUTION. 

Remove the laser line generator batteries when 

the tool is to be stored without use for a few days or 

more. If left in position, the batteries might leak and 

damage the laser light assembly. 
Damage due to leaking batteries is not covered under 

warranty. 

Operating the laser line generator

The laser line generator has a number of different 

mounting methods. It is important to select the mounting 

method first as illustrated in the following options.

Selecting the mounting method

Option 1: Flat surfaces – pin mounting base

1. Place the base of the unit onto the pin mounting base 

ensuring you align the front locating groove (6) with 

the locating pin (12). 

2. Place this assembly on a flat surface and check the vials 

(3) to ensure that the surface is level. If the surface is 

not level, go to option 3. 

3. If the floor is level, ensure the surface is made of 

soft material such as soft wood, then press both pin 

buttons (13) down into the flat surface and make sure 

it fixes firmly. 

Option 2: Flat surfaces – no mounting base

1. Place the unit on the floor and check the vials (3) to 

ensure that the surface is level. If the floor is not level, 

go to option 3.

Option 3: Uneven surfaces – leveling base

1. Place the unit onto the leveling base ensuring you align 

the front locating groove (6) with the locating pin (10). 

2. Check vials (3) to see if 

the unit assembly is level. 

If not, make appropriate 

adjustments to both the 

vertical adjusting knob (8) 

and the horizontal adjusting 

knob (9).
