Maintenance and Service
-12-
To fasten the tool on the Multiple-Purpose
Attachment 8, screw the locking screw 9 of
the Multiple-Purpose Attachment into the
1/4" tripod mount 6 on the tool and tighten.
To rotate the tool on the Multiple-Purpose
Attachment, slightly loosen the screw 9.
– Rotate the tool on the Multiple-Purpose
Attachment 8 sideward or toward the rear
to make the bottom plumb beam visible.
– Rotate the tool on the Multiple-Purpose
Attachment 8 to project heights with the
horizontal laser beam.
With the Multiple-Purpose Attachment 8, the
tool can be attached as follows:
– Mount the Multiple-Purpose Attachment 8
to a commercially available camera tripod
via the 1/4" tripod mount 13. For fastening
to a commercially available construction
tripod, use the 5/8" tripod mount 14.
– The Multiple-Purpose Attachment 8 can be
fastened to steel parts via the magnets 12.
– The Multiple-Purpose Attachment 8 can be
fastened to drywall or wood walls with
screws. For this, insert screws with a
minimum length of 2 in. into the screw
holes 10 of the Multiple-Purpose
Attachment.
– The Multiple-Purpose Attachment 8 can
also be fastened to pipes or similar beams
using a commercially available strap by
threading it through the opening 11 for
strap attachment.
Working with the Tripod (Optional
Accessory)
A tripod 18 offers a stable, height-adjustable
measuring support. Place the tool via the
tripod mount 6 onto the 1/4" male thread of
the tripod and screw the locking screw of the
tripod tight.
Working with the Measuring Plate
(Optional Accessory)
With the measuring plate 15, it is possible to
project the laser mark onto the floor or the
laser height onto a wall.
With the zero field and the scale, the offset or
drop to the required height can be measured
and projected at another location. This
eliminates the necessity of precisely adjusting
the tool to the height to be projected.
The measuring plate 15 has a reflective
coating that enhances the visibility of the
laser beam at greater distances or in intense
sunlight. The brightness intensification can
be seen only when viewing, parallel to the
laser beam, onto the measuring plate.
Laser Viewing Glasses (Optional
Accessory)
The laser viewing glasses filter out the
ambient light. This makes the red light of the
laser appear brighter for the eyes.
Do not use the laser viewing glasses as
safety goggles. The laser viewing glasses
are used for improved visualization of the
laser beam, but they do not protect against
laser radiation.
Do not use the laser viewing glasses as
sun glasses or in traffic. The laser
viewing glasses do not afford complete UV
protection and reduce color perception.
