Laser Setup with a Tripod
1.Set up the tripod in the middle of your work area (or wherever is best for your application needs). Make sure the setup is stable.
Note: The typical operating radius of the system is 75 m (250 ft).
Note: For best system performance, do not set up the laser within 6 m (20 ft) of a wall. Also do not use the receiver within 6 m (20 ft) of the laser or within 1.5 m (5 ft) of a wall. At these close ranges, the receiver’s electronics may give incorrect beam elevation information due to the laser beam reflecting off of the walls.
2.Attach the laser directly to a 5/8" x 11 tripod or 1/4" x 20 tripod with adapter
3.Turn on the laser and receiver.

Selecting the Audio Function
The receiver always starts up with the audio mode (loud) active.
1.Press the power/audio button repeatedly to cycle through the audio levels, which include off, soft, and loud.
Note: If the audio function is on, the receiver beeps quickly when the receiver is above the laser beam, slowly when below it, and continuously when centered in the laser beam or on grade.
Using the Receiver with a Laser
1.Press the power/audio button to turn on the receiver. Also make sure the Receiver Operation LED on the 5.2XL laser is GREEN (if not, press the RECEIVER button on the 5.2XL)
2.Position the receiver so that its photocell faces the laser.
3.Move the receiver up/down until the LCD and LEDs show an
Note: The LCD shows a down arrow when the receiver is above the laser beam, an up arrow when below it, and a horizontal line when centered in the laser beam.

Example: Benchmark elevation | = | 30.55 m | (100.23 ft) |
= | + 1.32 m | (4.34 ft) | |
Height of instrument | = | 31.87 m | (104.57 ft) |
6. Use this HI as a reference for all other elevations.
Height of Instrument (HI)
Rod Reading 1.32 m (4.34 ft)
Benchmark
30.55 m (100.23 ft)
HI = Rod Reading + Benchmark
HI = 1.32 m + 30.55 m = 31.87m (4.34 ft + 100.23 ft = 104.57 ft)

Maintenance and Care
Handling Precautions
When transferring the laser from a very low temperature to a warmer environment or visa versa, always allow time for the laser to reach the new temperature before using. Allowing this time is especially important when transferring the laser from an extremely heated/cold vehicle to the job site.
System Cleaning
For maximum performance and accuracy always keep the lenses clean. When cleaning, apply very light pressure and use only a good quality glass cleaner on a soft cloth to clean the exterior of the laser and its lenses.
CAUTION: A dry cloth or abrasive organic cleaner could scratch or damage these surfaces.
CAUTION: Do not submerge the laser.
Storage
When you’re not using the laser, store it in its pouch/carrying case.
CAUTION: Do not store the laser in a wet pouch/carrying case. If the pouch/carrying case gets wet, let it dry before storing the laser in it.
Calibration
Before each use, be sure to check the laser for signs of damage. If the laser has been dropped or subjected to other rough treatment, it should be checked for accuracy. For instruction on checking calibration, please visit our website support list at www.trimble.com/support.shtml.
Warranty
Trimble warrants the 5.2XL to be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of three years. For the first 24 months, Trimble or its authorized Dealer or service center will repair or replace, at its option, any defective part, or the entire product, for which notice has been given during the warranty period. For months 25 through 36 an exchange fee may apply. This warranty period is in effect from the date the system is delivered by Trimble or its authorized Dealer to the purchaser, or is put into service by a Dealer as a demonstrator or rental component.
Trimble or its Authorized Service Center will repair or replace, at its option, any defective part or components of which notice has been given during the warranty period.
Customers should send products to the nearest Authorized Factory, Dealer, or Service Center for warranty repairs, freight prepaid. In countries with Trimble Service Subsidiary Centers, the repaired products will be returned to the customer, freight prepaid.
Any evidence of negligent, abnormal use, accident, or any attempt to repair equipment by other than
Special precautions have been taken to ensure the calibration of the laser; however, calibration is not covered by this warranty. Maintenance of the calibration is the responsibility of the user.
The foregoing states the entire liability of Trimble regarding the purchase and use of its equipment. Trimble will not be held responsible for any consequential loss or damage of any kind.
This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, except as set forth above, including an implied warranty merchantability of fitness for a particular purpose, is hereby disclaimed. This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, expressed or implied.
Laser Safety
Use of this product by people other than those trained on this product may result in exposure to hazardous laser light.
•Do not remove warning labels from the unit.
•The 5.2XL is Class 3A/3R (< 5mW, 600 ... 680 nm).
•Never look into the laser beam or direct it to the eyes of other people.
•Always operate the unit in a way that prevents the beam from getting into people‘s eyes.
