HOW TO USE THE LASER SYSTEM

POWERING THE LASER

Batteries

WARNING

Ni-MH batteries may contain small amounts of harmful substances. Be sure to charge the battery before using it for the first time, and after not using it for an extended length of time. Charge only with specified chargers according to device manufacturer‘s instructions. Do not open the battery, dispose of in fire or short circuit; it may ignite, explode, leak or get hot causing personal injury. Dispose in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations. Keep the battery away from children. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately

Recharging the Batteries

The laser is shipped with a rechargeable Ni-MH battery pack.

Note: The approximate charge of the batteries is shown at the left top side of the LCD.

The charger requires approx. 10 hours to charge empty rechargeable batteries.

For charging, connect the plug of the charger to the recharge jack of the battery pack.

New or long-time out-of-use rechargeable batteries reach their best performance after being charged and recharged five times. For Indoor applications the charger can be used as a power supply for the GL.

Alkaline batteries can be used as a backup. Insert 4 D-cell batteries noting the plus

(+) and minus (-) diagrams inside the battery housing.

The batteries should only be charged when the laser is between 50° F and 104° F (10°C to 40°C). Charging at a higher temperature may damage the batteries. Charging at a lower temperature may increase the charge time and decrease the charge capacity, resulting in loss of performance and shortened life expectancy.

Turning On/Off the Radio Remote Control

The radio remote control is a hand-held device that allows you to send operational commands to the laser from a remote location.

Press the power button to turn on the radio remote control. A “ ” and additional vertical bars appear in the right corner of the remote’s top display line indicating the radio connection status between the laser and the remote control.

Note: When the remote control is initially turned on, the standard display (model number and software version) appear for the first 3 seconds, then the axes symbols and last-entered grade for each axis briefly appear in the LCD.

With every button press, the LCD backlight is activated and turns off automatically if no button is pressed for 8 seconds.

To turn off the radio remote control, press and release the power button.

Note: 5 minutes after the last button press, the remote control turns off automatically.
