the T-2000SD on any flat surface using a 5/8 X 11 bolt
through a plate. Be sure the engagement length of the threads
doesn’t exceed 7/16”
PoWer
up by connecting the power cord to a 12VDC 1.5
source. Emission indicator and the laser should both be on.
HorIzonTaL
alignment is controlled by loosening the Hori-
zontal lock and rough aligning the laser beam to the far point.
Tighten the lock, then adjust the laser left and right using the
fine adjust tangent.
VerTIcaL
alignment is accomplished using the vertical lock
and tangent in the same steps as the horizontal
ScoPe
installation and alignment uses a rifle style mount
“Weaver” ( model 63B). Attach the rifle scope of your choice
to the “Weaver” mount as per the instruction that comes with
the scope. LaserLine Mfg., Inc. provides these parts. To align the
scope cross hairs in parallel with the laser beam, measure the
distance from the center of the scope cross hair to the center of
the laser beam. This will give you the offset of the laser beam
center to the cross hair center. Example:
Center of laser to center of cross hair = 2-11/32
Example is with LaserLine factory installed scope.
On a piece of cardboard or paper, draw a vertical line with two
horizontal lines going through it at the calculated distance. From
the above example, 2-11/32 (5.95cm) apart.
Place the target on a wall or vertical surface at least 150 yards
(137 meters) from the laser. Set the laser on a tripod and aim it at
the target.
use the horizontal and vertical tangents to place the laser spot
on the center of the lower cross hair of the far target.
use the crosshair horizontal (18) adjustment to adjust the ver-
tical crosshair until it is centered on the laser spot. Next, use
the cross- hair vertical adjustment (17) to adjust the horizontal
cross hair in the scope to match the upper cross hair on the far
target. The laser beam is now parallel with the spotting scope
cross hairs.
Fan LenS
(2000-0025) changes the laser beam from a spot to
a vertical plane of reference. The laser beam maintains its stan-
dard width at any given distance while fanning out in the vertical
at the rate of 1,320 feet per mile.
The fan lens is hinged on the left side to allow you to swing the
lens out of the way and use the beam, rather than the plane of
laser light without having to remove the fans lens assembly.
1. Carry the instrument in its case whenever transporting it
between jobs.
2. When carrying the instrument while on a tripod, do not carry
it over the shoulder, but cradled in an under arm position.
The instrument should never be lifted for carrying until a
security check is made of all fasteners, especially the tripod
head mounting bolt.
3. When setting up the instrument, be sure to spread the tripod
legs sufficiently to guard against possible fall.
4. Particular care should be taken not to grasp any part which
may put the instrument out of adjustment, such as the tele-
scope, level vial, etc.
5. When leaving the instrument set up outdoors for long peri-
ods of time, in applications like dredging, it is highly recom-
mended that the laser be set up in an enclosure or “house” to
protect it from the elements.
6. Do not expose the instrument to rain. If the instrument is
subjected to moisture, wipe it carefully with a dry cloth be-
fore returning it to its case.
7. upon completion of use, clean the instrument before return-
ing it to its case. Clean the lens carefully with a soft hair
brush or lens tissue. When dust cannot be removed by that
method, use several drops of alcohol on a lint free cloth or
lens tissue and wipe it gently
8. Never store laser in a damp dirty case!
9. Keep laser stored in dry secure place.
