1. Turn the laser “On” 10 to 20 minutes prior to striping
operation. This allows the GL3000P-E system to reach
optimum operating temperature and power.
Note: When outside air temperature is over 95˚ F (35˚ C),
operate laser in “Blink” mode.
2. Place vehicle with paint gun package at your desired
location on the road.
3. Aim the laser spot to the desired reference point on the
road, i.e. existing centerline stripe, road edge, etc. Once
you have located the laser spot as your reference, as you
are driving the spot will indicate your position relative
to “on” center. If you are moving too far to the right,
the laser will be to the right of your reference. If you are
moving too far to the left, the laser will be to the left of
your reference. The laser spot is designed to be used
as a reference about 15 to 35 feet in front of the vehicle.
The laser spot reference on the road usually appears the
brightest at this distance. See page 4 figure 1 for details.

The laser spot reference ahead of you is more visible or
less visible depending on conditions such as the surface
you are driving on and the brightness and location of
the sun. One of the worst conditions is driving into low
sun on new asphalt. This creates a condition where the
surface looks almost white from all the glare.
Laser Enhancement Glasses (part number 3000-0435)
block out glare and increase laser spot visibility for the
driver in daylight operations.
