2. Device Description
2.1 Function
The lasers are equipped with a radio transmitter and radio receiver
for the data transfer between FB-10 remote control and FE-53
locking receiver.
The automatic 2-axis inclination lasers, type NL-8/-9/-9V are all-
round lasers capable of electronic self-levelling over two axes.
They project a light plane as reference plane into space,
horizontally, with single or double inclination up to steep
inclination.

1. Set-up, Alignment
Select the reference point and aiming
point to align the inclination axis.
Set up the laser on top of the
reference point and aim it at the
target point.
Adjust the inclination if necessary.
Note:
Before starting work, especially in the
case of steep inclines, check and
adjust the inclination and inclination
assignment via fixing points or by
surveying measuring.

When the laser range symbol is blinking, one side can be switched off/on by
pressing an arrow button.

5.1. Operating Instructions
Mount laser above the reference point and align the X inclination axis to the
aiming point.
Adjust banking in the Y axis.
Measure laser construction height with the locking receiver FE-53 and a
levelling rod. Transfer this height to the aiming point.
Release the automatic scan with the A button of the receiver.
The light plane is now automatically directed within typically 2 min./max. 5
min. to the centre of the receiver and locked there.
The LEDs at the FE-53 are blinking alternately. On the display
OFF
and the
approx. inclination value are shown alternately.
Now the FE-53 can be removed abruptly off the laser light plane and switched
off. After approx. 30 seconds the exact inclination value is shown on the
display and automatically locked. The % symbol is blinking.
Alternatively the FE-53 can be mounted permanently to realize a long-term
fixing of the laser light plane.
Please note:
Never operate the remote control or inclination setting at the
laser in this mode because by this the laser light plane is
moved.
Precondition is an established radio link to the FE-53, indicated
by the symbol on the LCD display.

Press the Wahl/OK button to select and to activate the settings for X/Y inclina-
tion, beam masking, if necessary (see
3.9
) and grade swap (see
3.8
).
The activated item blinks.
If, after setting the speed, the button is pressed again or a time of about 20
seconds passes, the adjustment guard is reactivated automatically. This means
the arrow buttons do not work.
Pressing the arrow buttons briefly changes the inclination value by 0.001 %.
The value is changed with increasing speed if the button is kept pressed.
The device is switched on by pressing this button.
The device and company data are then shown, followed by the operating display
with the last settings.
The device is then levelled and referenced on the zero point automatically. After the
levelling phase the laser beam and laser beam symbol stop blinking. If this does not
happen, the device must be moved into the levelling range by tilting it forwards.
The display illumination switches off after approx. 30 seconds automatically. The
illumination is switched on again by pressing the On/Off button shortly.
To switch off the device, press the On/Off button until “Auf Wiedersehen !” appears.
The arrow buttons keep locked for reasons of unintended settings. The release is
made by pressing the menu/OK button.

For electromotive fine/coarse adjustment of the laser beam, push the
respective arrow buttons. Longer pushing changes the direction with

4.2 Sensitivity Setting Wind/Vibration
The self-levelling function corrects even the smallest deviation.
Additionally the laser beam and the laser beam symbol at the operating
mode display blink when the limit values of step 1 to 3 are exceeded, i. e.
by influence of wind and/or vibration.

6.1 Battery Charging
•
Carry out charging only with the power and charging unit, type NE-80 or
a 12 V DC external rechargeable battery via connection cable 0117.02.
•
Keep charger dry and only use in rooms.
•
For charging take the laser out of the transport case.

•
After approx. 5 hours the charging time is finished. The display turns off or
the battery symbol shows a full battery.
•
Low ambient temperatures reduce the running time, high temperatures
reduce the battery life.
•
Damaged batteries must be disposed.
