Troubleshooting Guide

This guide is intended to assist you in determining why the laser is not

 

operating to your expectations. These are some of the most com-

English

monly asked questions or observances. If you still have questions or

problems with your DEWALT laser after completely reading through

 

this Troubleshooting Guide and instruction manual, call our toll free

 

Hot Line at 1-800-4-DEWALT or visit one of our service centers.

 

THE LASER WILL NOT TURN ON.

 

Ensure that fresh batteries are properly inserted into the tool. TIP: See

 

“Installing the Batteries” section. Rotate the ON/OFF VARIABLE

 

SPEED Knob clockwise to turn the power on. TIP: See “Control

 

Panel” section. If the laser still doesn't turn on, take the tool to a

 

DEWALT service center.

 

THE LASER TURNS SLOWLY OR HAS TROUBLE ROTATING.

 

Freezing temperatures adversely effect the performance of batteries.

 

Therefore the laser and batteries should not be stored in freezing con-

 

ditions. If the tool has been stored in extremely cold conditions, run-

 

ning the laser for a few minutes will bring the unit up to proper work-

 

ing temperature.

 

AFTER TURNING THE LASER ON, 2 LASER DOTS ARE

 

PROJECTED FROM THE ROTARY HEAD.

 

The DW071 Rotary Laser has been designed with dual, side by side

 

laser diodes. Two diodes allows the laser to avoid blind spots which

 

could potentially be created by the protective cap over the rotary head

 

and also produce an extremely bright beam when the rotary laser

 

head is spinning.
