Charging the Detector
The Digital Laser Detector is powered by a Li-ion battery. To charge the battery.
1.
Insert the USB end of the charging cable into a USB port (Figure
E
1
).
2.
On the Detector, pull the Micro USB port cover (Figure
E
2
) off and to
the side.
3.
Insert the Micro USB end of the charging cable into the Detector’s Micro
USB port (Figure
E
3
).
4.
Allow the Detector time to fully-charge. The LED on the Detector will
remain Red as the battery is charging (Figure
F
13
).
5.
When the LED on the Detector turns Green, remove the charging cable.
The RBRC® Seal
The RBRC® (Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation) Seal on the nickel cadmium, nickel metal
hydride or lithium-ion batteries (or battery packs)
indicates that the costs to recycle these batteries (or
battery packs) at the end of their useful life have already
been paid by
DeWALT. In some areas, it is illegal to
place spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride
or lithium-ion batteries in the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the
Call 2 Recycle® program provides an environmentally conscious alternative.
Call 2 Recycle, Inc., in cooperation with
DeWALT and other battery users,
has established the program in the United States and Canada to facilitate the
collection of spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries.
Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning
the spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries to an
authorized
DeWALT service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may
also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop off the
spent battery. RBRC® is a registered trademark of Call 2 Recycle, Inc.
Operating Tips
• To extend battery life per charge, turn the laser off when it is not in use.
• To ensure the accuracy of your work, check the laser calibration often. Refer
to Calibrating the Laser.
• Before attempting to use the laser, make sure the tool is positioned on a
relatively smooth, secure surface.
• Always mark the center of the laser line or dot. If you mark different parts of
the beam at different times you will introduce error into your measurements.
• 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 indoors, a slow rotary head speed will produce a visibly
brighter line, a faster rotary head speed will produce a visibly solid line.
• To increase beam visibility, wear Laser Enhancement Glass es (Figure
S
)
and/or use a Laser Target Card (Figure
R
) to help find the beam.
• Extreme temperature changes can cause movement or shifting of building
structures, metal tripods, equipment, etc., which can effect accuracy. Check
your accuracy often while working.
• If the laser is dropped or has suffered a sharp blow, have the calibration
system checked by a qualified service center before using the laser.
Turning the Laser On
1.
Insert the fully charged 20V battery pack as shown in Figure
D
.
2.
Gently press the power button to power ON the laser:
• The power LED indicator light (Figure
A
3
) will illuminate.
• Self-leveling mode is activated automatically and the laser unit will
self-level. Once the laser unit is level, the beam will rotate clockwise once
at 600RPM.
• 30 sec. after the last button press, Hi Mode (Anti-Drift) is activated
automatically and the Hi LED (Figure
A
2
) will illuminate. (You can
disable Hi Mode by holding down the Slope Mode button for 2 secs.
The laser will beep twice and the Hi Mode LED will turn off. NOTE: when
Hi Mode is disabled, the laser cannot detect any movement after setup,
so accuracy cannot be guaranteed.)
3.
Press (Figure
A
16
) to adjust the Rotation Speed of the laser beam
through its 4 preset speeds (150, 300, 600, and 1200 RPM). NOTE:
Accuracy is best optimized at 600 RPM or less.
4.
To change the Direction of the laser beam while in self-leveling mode,
press or (Figure
A
18
or
19
).
5.
Press the Scan Mode button
15˚/45˚/90˚
(Figure
A
17
) to set the laser to scan
in 0°, 15°, 45°, or 90° angle mode.
•
15˚/45˚/90˚
is used to make the laser head sweep back and forth, creating a
short, bright laser line. This short line is much brighter and more visible
than when the unit is in full rotation mode.
• The direction of the scan zone can be controlled with the arrow buttons
and (Figure
A
18
or
19
)
