The laser target plate (51) improves visibility of the laser beam in unfavourable conditions and at greater distances.

The reflective surface of the laser target plate (51) improves visibility of the laser line. The transparent surface enables the laser line to be seen from behind the laser target plate.

A tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable support surface for measuring.

1. For horizontal operation, place the measuring tool with the 5/8" tripod mount (18) on the thread of the tripod (43).
2. For vertical operation, use the 5/8" tripod mount (20).
3. Tighten the measuring tool using the locking screw of the tripod.

On a tripod featuring a measuring scale on its extender, you can set the height deviation straight away.

1. Roughly align the tripod before switching on the measuring tool.

The laser goggles filter out ambient light. This makes the light of the laser appear brighter to the eye.

The measuring tool can be secured to the wall using the wall mount with the alignment unit (44). Using the wall mount is recommended, e.g. when working above the maximum extension height of tripods, or when working on unstable surfaces without a tripod.

1. Fasten the wall mount (44) to a wall using screws through the fixing holes (45).
2. Fit the wall mount as perpendicular as possible and ensure it is mounted in a stable way.
3. Screw the 5/8" wall mount screw (48) into the horizontal tripod mount (18), depending on the requirements of the task, or the vertical tripod mount (20) on the measuring tool.

Using the alignment unit allows the measuring tool to be moved in a range of approx. 13 cm with respect to height.

1. Press the (46) pushbutton
2. Slide the alignment unit to roughly the required height.

It is possible to align the laser beam precisely to a reference height using the fine adjustment screw (47).

Particular care is required when working with the measuring rod in the vicinity of high-voltage cables. If the measuring rod comes into close proximity to high-voltage cables, this can lead to a fatal electric shock.

Do not use the measuring rod during thunderstorms.

To check levels or apply slopes, it is recommended to use the measuring rod (42) together with the laser receiver.

A relative measuring scale is incorporated at the top of the measuring rod (42). You can preselect its zero at the bottom on the extender. This enables you to read deviations from the target height straight away.
