OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To get the most out of your Prolaser
®
899 Electronic Rota-Line,
please adhere carefully to the following instructions.
Note:
Avoid setting up the laser near heavy machinery or sources
of vibration that may adversely affect the leveling of the laser.
Horizontal Plane (Automatic Mode)
Place the Rotary Laser on firm and dry ground or on a standard
5/8" tripod (not included) or ceiling to floor leveling pole (not
included) or wall mount accessory (not included).
1. Set up the Rotary Laser approximately level; the instrument
can compensate for up to ±5° from the horizontal plane.
2. Press the
On
/
Off
button. The power indicator will light up
and the laser beam will blink. If the instrument is set up outside
the ±5° limit the manual indicator will blink and rotation will not begin.
3. Verify that the Rotary Laser is in automatic mode - the manual
indicator must be unlit.
4. The Rotary Laser is ready for work when the laser beam has
stopped blinking. The instrument is now level and the laser
head will rotate at 600 rpm.
5. To make the beam more visible, change the rotating speed
(see Changing Rotating Speed), change scanning mode (see
Scan Function), or use the Laser Detector to detect the laser
beam (see Laser Detector).
6. You can use the remote control to control the Rotary Laser
(see Using the Remote Control). This option is very useful for
trench work or when laying concrete.
7. To turn the Rotary Laser off, press the
On
/
Off
button.
