•The more accurately centered the bubbles are in the vials, the more accurate the laser beam will be for working.
•Your DEWALT laser is equipped with 2, side by side laser diodes which produce an extremely bright, visible beam when the laser head is rotated.
•Always mark the center of the laser line or dot.
•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 indoor a slow rotary head speed will produce a visi- bly brighter line, a faster rotary head speed will produce a visibly solid line.
•To increase beam visibility, wear the Laser Enhancement Glasses provided and/or use the Laser Target Card to help find the beam.
•To transfer a laser dot mark use the Manual Rotation Button on the top of the laser head for quick and easy control. See “Manual Head Rotation Button” section for instructions.
•Extreme temperature changes can cause movement of internal parts that can effect accuracy. Check your accuracy often while working.
•When working with the DEWALT Digital Laser Detector set the laser variable speed control to the highest setting (600 RPM).
•Utilize the Bump Sensor feature on the laser to warn you if the tool has been bumped after set up.
•If the laser has been dropped or has tipped over while set up on a tri- pod, have the calibration system checked by a qualified service cen- ter before continuing use.
Installing and Removing the Battery Pack
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack is fully charged.
To install the battery pack into the rotary laser, rotate the battery adapter plate (A) with applicable cut out for 9.6, 12, 14.4 volt pack (B) or the other for the 18 volt pack (C) aligned with the battery contacts facing inside the cut out and slide the battery pack in firmly until you hear the battery pack lock in place.

To Turn the Laser On:
Insert fully charged battery pack through proper cut out in battery adapter plate. Ensure battery is firmly engaged.
Rotate the ON/OFF knob (A) clockwise to power the laser ON. The dual laser diodes will turn on and the POWER LED (B) Light will illu- minate. The rotary head will remain stationary during the first 1/4 turn of the knob. Rotation of the laser head will begin as the Variable Speed knob continues to be turned clockwise. The rotary head speed is variable from
Low Battery Indicator:
The DW073 is equipped with a Low Battery Indicator. A flashing POWER LED Light indicates that the battery pack needs to be recharged. All other electronic functions of the tool will shut down, including the laser diodes. Follow recharging instructions for battery packs as mentioned in this manual.
