• The more accurately centered the bubbles are in the vials, the
more accurate the laser beam will be for working.
• Your D
EWALT laser is equipped with 2, side by side laser diodes
which produce an extremely bright, visible beam when the laser
head is rotated.
• Always mark the center of the laser line or dot.
• To increase working distance and accuracy, set up the laser in the
middle of your working area.
• When attaching to a tripod or wall, mount the laser securely.
• When working indoor a slow rotary head speed will produce a visi-
bly brighter line, a faster rotary head speed will produce a visibly
solid line.
• To increase beam visibility, wear the Laser Enhancement Glasses
provided and/or use the Laser Target Card to help find the beam.
• To transfer a laser dot mark use the Manual Rotation Button on the
top of the laser head for quick and easy control. See “Manual Head
Rotation Button” section for instructions.
• Extreme temperature changes can cause movement of internal
parts that can effect accuracy. Check your accuracy often while
working.
• When working with the D
EWALT Digital Laser Detector set the
laser variable speed control to the highest setting (600 RPM).
• Utilize the Bump Sensor feature on the laser to warn you if the tool
has been bumped after set up.
• If the laser has been dropped or has tipped over while set up on a tri-
pod, have the calibration system checked by a qualified service cen-
ter before continuing use.
Installing and Removing the Battery Pack
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack is fully charged.
To install the battery pack
into the rotary laser, rotate the battery
adapter plate (A) with applicable cut out for 9.6, 12, 14.4 volt pack (B)
or the other for the 18 volt pack (C) aligned with the battery contacts
facing inside the cut out and slide the battery pack in firmly until you
hear the battery pack lock in place.
To remove the battery pack
from the tool, push the battery in
slightly, then press the release but-
tons, and firmly pull the battery pack
out of the receptacle. The battery
ejector pin (D) will aid in removing
the pack. To recharge the battery
pack, insert it into the charger as
described in the charger section of
this manual.
Control Panel
The Control Panel contains the
ON/OFF/Variable Speed Switch,
ON/LOW Battery Indicator LED
Light, and Bump Sensor Control
Buttons and LED Indicator Lights.
To Turn the Laser On:
Insert fully charged battery pack through proper cut out in battery
adapter plate. Ensure battery is firmly engaged.
Rotate the ON/OFF knob (A) clockwise to power the laser ON. The
dual laser diodes will turn on and the POWER LED (B) Light will illu-
minate. The rotary head will remain stationary during the first 1/4 turn
of the knob. Rotation of the laser head will begin as the Variable
Speed knob continues to be turned clockwise. The rotary head speed
is variable from 0-600 RPM. The POWER LED Light will remain lit as
long as the switch is turned ON and the battery remains charged.
Low Battery Indicator:
The DW073 is equipped with a Low Battery Indicator. A flashing
POWER LED Light indicates that the battery pack needs to be
recharged. All other electronic functions of the tool will shut down,
including the laser diodes. Follow recharging instructions for battery
packs as mentioned in this manual.
