Introduction
The THEIS TCL 80 is a fully automatic, motor driven self-levelling cross line laser.
The laser emits up to 4 vertical and 4 horizontal laser lines with very good visibility.
The vertical lines have a fixed angle of 90° (x,y) to one another.
Taking the cross-point of the laser lines as starting point, a laser point is projected
additionally onto the ground, facilitating essentially the set-up of the laser.
The included laser glasses as well as the target plate improve the visibility of the
laser lines.
The detector TEK (option) is used when working in bigger distances and in case of
bad visibility of the laser lines.
Before delivery, all instruments are checked carefully.
To have the laser ready for use at all times, observe the following
recommendations:
1. Never keep the instrument in the container, when it is wet.
2. Check accuracy each time before using the laser, as we do not assume liability
for adjustment errors.
3. Follow the instructions on how to handle the rechargeable batteries.
4. Treat the laser beam window of the TCL-80 and sensor window of the detector
(option) carefully.

2. Setting up
Set up the TCL-80 on a solid, even ground or screw it on tight on a tripod. Adjust
the head of the tripod preferably horizontal, because the levelling automatic of the
cross line laser is able to level max. an angle of ± 4°.
Without tripod adjust the laser if necessary roughly with the help of the foot screws
(3).
3. Operation
Switch on the instrument. The operating indicator (15) lights up red und 2
horizontal lines are lighting up.
2 additional horizontal lines are activated.
2 vertical lines in Y – direction and the plummet point are switched on.
2 additional vertical lines in X – direction are switched on.
By pressing the buttons for the horizontal or vertical lines the laser lines can be
switched off.
The cross line laser is rotatable 360°, making it p ossible to adjust the laser lines to
the desired targets. With the fine-adjustment knob (5) a precise adjustment of the
laser lines is possible.
If the working range of the automatic leveling is exceeded, all laser lines are
switched off at once. Therefore, incorrect measurements are avoided.
If working outdoors, in bigger distances and with bad visibility of the laser lines use
the detector TEK (option).
If using the detector TEK, the button outdoor operation (11) must be pressed. The
LED (12) shows the activation of the outdoor operation.
After having finished work switch off the laser with button (14).
