Use and care for laser level 

To use the laser level properly and keep your work 
accurate: 
The laser level must be set where it is not exposed to 
rain. 
Do not expose the laser level to extreme temperatures 
and temperature variations. 
The laser level is a very precise measuring instrument. 
Handle the laser level very carefully not to drop it or give 
strong impacts to the outside of the tool-body. 
Always check the accuracy of laser before use. 

For a better visibility of the laser-beam line, Receiver is 
available as an optional accessory. Use the receiver 
when it is difficult to see the laser-beam line. 
Battery life indicator LED (yellow) indicates that the 
batteries become weak. 
Replace all the batteries (2 pieces) at one time with new 
alkaline ones. 
When you finish your work, always be sure that the laser 
level is switched off and the laser-beam lines is not 
projected. 
Always keep the laser level in the carrying case when it 
is carried.
