2. Directions of Use
2.1 Set Up
Location
Place the E60 on stable surface.
Keep the location clear of possible obstructions that could
block or reflect the laser beam.
When working in a very dusty environment place the E60
up-wind so the dirt is blown away from the laser.
Setting
up on a
Tripod
Extend tripod legs to desired height and open far enough
apart to ensure the tripod is stable
Attach the E60 securely to the tripod supplied attaching
the 5/8 tripod bolt to the tripod mount at the base of the
laser.
Secure the tripod on extremely windy days.
2.2 Power On/Off
Powering On
Press the power button to turn on the E60
If set within the 5° self-levelling range, the E60 will self-level,
and the laser head will start to spin and emit a rotating laser
beam.
If the unit is bumped or senses interference the laser head
will stop spinning and re-level. Once unit has re-levelled the
laser head will begin to spin again, emitting a level line
Warning
- If the unit has been bumped or moved and the laser
recommences spinning the instrument may not be at the original
level position. Please recheck you RL/datum point.
2.3 Tilt Warning System (TWS)
Description
of TWS Mode
To prevent the possibility of the E60 giving a different reading than
is expected due to a knock or the laser being moved by a third party
the TWS function can be used and will prevent the unit re-levelling
and spinning in the event of a knock or movement.
Using TWS
Mode
Press the TWS button (TWS on/off) to turn on the TWS. When
activated the LED indicator will light.
When the TWS is activated on the E60, if the unit is knocked or
interfered with, the laser will stop spinning and the TWS indicator
light will flash. The laser will then need to be reset by the
operator, before the laser will begin to spin again.
To reactivate TWS, press the TWS button again, and the laser
will re-level and begin to spin again. It is advised to check
RL/Datum point when unit re-levels.
