3.
Attach a tripod adapter (Figure
G
1
) to the bottom of the laser
unit (Figure
G
2
).
4.
Place the laser with the attached adapter on the tripod and
screw the threaded knob on the tripod into the female thread on
the tripod adapter.
5.
Turn the laser ON and allow it to self-level in horizontal (level)
mode (Figure
H
1
).
6.
If you want to use the laser in vertical (plumb) mode, follow
these steps while the laser is still ON:
• Carefully remove the laser unit from the tripod.
• Remove the tripod adapter (Figure
I
1
) from the bottom of
the laser unit (Figure
I
2
) and attach it to the side (Figure
I
3
).
• With the laser in the vertical (plumb) position, attach the laser
unit to the tripod (Figure
I
4
). The Dot rotates down to 6
o’clock.
• Press
to make sure the laser rotates.
7.
Adjust the rotation speed and controls, as desired (Figure
P
).
Using the Laser on a Floor
The laser level can be positioned directly on the floor for leveling and
plumbing applications such as framing walls.
1.
Place the laser on a relatively smooth and level surface where it
will not be disturbed or exposed to vibration.
2.
Position the laser for a level setting (Figure
H
1
).
3.
Turn the laser ON and allow it to self-level in level (horizontal)
mode.
4.
If you want to use the laser in plumb (vertical) mode,
carefully turn the laser so the keypad is at the top (Figure
H
2
). The Dot rotates down to 6 o’clock. Press to make
sure the laser rotates.
5.
Adjust the rotation speed and controls, as desired (Figure
P
).
NOTE:
The laser will be easier to set up for wall applications if the
rotation speed is set to 0 RPMs and the remote control is used
to line up the laser with control marks. The remote allows one
person to set up the laser.
Using the Laser With a Laser Detector
How the Detector works
Some laser kits include a
DeWALT Digital Laser Detector. The
DeWALT Digital Laser Detector allows you to locate a laser beam
emitted by a rotary laser in bright light conditions or over long
distances.
• The detector can be used in both indoor and outdoor situations
where it is difficult to see the laser beam.
• The detector is not for use with non-rotating lasers but is
compatible with most rotary red-beam (DW080LRS) and green
beam (DW080LGS) lasers.
• The detector can be set to indicate the location of the beam to
either the nearest 5/64” (2 mm) or the nearest 3/64” (1 mm).
• The detector gives both visual signals through the display window
(Figure
F
6
) and audio signals through the speaker (Figure
F
5
)
to indicate the location of the laser beam.
