The DeWALT Digital Laser Detector can be used with or without
the detector clamp (Fig. K). When used with the clamp, the
detector can be positioned on a grade rod, leveling pole, stud
orpost.
Installing a Battery in the Detector (Fig.H)
The Digital Laser Detector is powered by a 9volt battery. To
install the battery provided, lift up on the battery compartment
cover
21
. Place the 9volt battery in the compartment, aligning
the battery as shown.
Detector Controls (Fig.I)
The detector is controlled by the power button
26
and the
accuracy mode button
27
.
When the power button is pushed once, the detector is
turned on. The top of the display window shows the accuracy
icon
27
, and the volume icon
28
. To decrease the volume
of the audible signal that the detector emits when it senses
a laser beam, push the volume button
28
again; one of the
half circles next to the speaker icon will dissappear. To turn off
the audible signal push the button again; the volume icon will
dissapear. The DeWALT Digital Laser Detector also has an auto
shut‑off feature. If a rotary laser beam does not strike the beam
detection window, or if no buttons are pressed, the detector
will shut itself off in about 30minutes.
When the detector is on, the top of the window shows an
accuracy mode icon. Either the ±1/25" (1 mm) accuracy mode
icon
53
will appear, or the ±1/8" (3 mm) accuracy mode
icon
54
will appear. When the ±1/25" (1 mm) accuracy mode
icon appears, it indicates that the detector will give an “on
grade” reading only when the laser beam is on grade or no
more than 1/25" (1 mm) above or below it. When the 1/8"
(3mm) accuracy mode icon appears, it indicates that the
detector will give an “on grade” reading when the laser beam
is on grade or approximately 1/8" (3 mm) above or below
it. Push the accuracy mode button
27
once to change the
accuracymode.
Detector Operation (Fig.I, J)
1. Set up and position the rotary laser that you will be using
according to the manufacturer’s directions. Turn the laser
on and make sure that the laser is rotating and emitting a
laser beam. NOTE: This detector has been designed to be
used only with a rotating laser. The detector will not work
with a stationary beam laserlevel.
2. Turn the detector on by pressing the power/volume
button
26
.
3. Adjust the volume as desired as described in the
DetectorControls.
4. Position the detector so that the detector window
22
is
facing the laser beam produced by the rotary laser. Move
the detector up or down within the approximate area of the
beam, until you have centered the detector. For information
about the display window indicators and the audible signal
indicators, refer to the table titled Indicators (Fig.J).
5. Use the marking notches
30
to accurately mark the
position of the laserbeam.
Detector Cleaning and Storage
• Dirt and grease may be removed from the exterior of the
detector using a cloth or soft, non‑metallicbrush.
• The DeWALT Digital Laser Detector is water resistant. If you
should drop the detector in mud, wet concrete, or a similar
substance, simply hose the detector off. Do not use high
pressure water, e.g., from a pressurewasher.
• The best storage place is one that is cool and dry–away
from direct sunlight and excess heat orcold.
Detector Service
Except for batteries, there are no user serviceable parts in the
Digital Laser Detector. Do not disassemble the unit. Unauth‑
orized tampering with the laser detector will void allwarranties.
Detector Troubleshooting
The detector will not turnon.
• Press and release the power/volumebutton.
• Check to see that the battery is in place and in the
properposition.
• If the detector is very cold, allow it to warm up in a
heatedarea.
• Replace the 9volt battery. Turn the uniton.
• If the detector still does not turn on, take the detector to a
DeWALT servicecenter.
The detector’s speaker makes nosound.
• Ensure that the detector ison.
• Press the power/volume button. It will toggle from high, to
low, tomute.
• Ensure that the rotary laser is spinning and that it is
emitting a laserbeam.
• If the detector is still not making any sound, take it to a
DeWALT servicecenter.
The detector does not respond to a stationary
laserbeam.
• The DeWALT Digital Laser Detector has been designed to
work only with rotarylasers.
The detector gives off a tone but the LCD display window
does notfunction.
• If the detector is very cold, allow it to warm up in a
heatedarea.
• If the LCD display window is still not functioning, take the
detector to a DeWALT servicecenter.
Wall Mount Bracket (Fig.M, N)
Some laser kits include a Wall Mount. It can be used for
attaching the tool to track or ceiling angle and to aid in
acoustical ceiling installation. Follow the directions below for
using the wallmount.
