compartment contaminated by battery leaks is to be wiped out with a dry cloth.
Wear protective gloves for that operation.
Batteries should be replaced when light of the laser LED fades, the laser beam
becomes dispersed or the size or the laser beam is subject to variations.
Assembly and adjustment
n
The delivery kit incorporates a collapsible tripod (16) made of aluminium.
ź
The tripod is suitable for attachment to the rotary base (13) for horizontal
plane setting. The base can be screwed to the tripod by means of the
threaded borehole 5/8''(15,9 mm) located under the bottom plane of the
base.
Mount the laser level (5) on the base with use of the fixing bolt (11) by
ź
rotating the latter clockwise (see Fig. A, page 1).
The tripod height can be adjusted within the range from 45 to 120 cm. To set
ź
the tripod to the desired height one has to unlock latches (17) of telescopic
legs and then extend the legs as much as needed. After having the latches
relocked the tripod should be positioned vertically. Additionally, the laser
base can be raised by rotating the adjusting crank handle (15) clockwise.
To lower the laser level position all the setting activities must be carried out
ź
in reverse order.
The horizontal plane of the instrument base can be adjusted with use of
ź
knobs (12). These knobs must be rotated until air bubbles in spirit level
indicators (6) and (9) are positioned exactly in the centres of indicators
between marking rings.
Calibration
n
The level 15145 has been factory calibrated as the entire device with installed
precise spirit levels and the laser gun module. No additional field calibration is
necessary.
OPERATION:
Switching the laser level on /off
n
To switch the appliance on one has to rotate the power switch (4) clockwise
ź
(see Fig. D, page 2).
CAUTION: The laser LED emits visible beam of laser light rated to class 2. Make sure
that the laser beam is directed below or above the eye level
Rotation of the power switch (4) anticlockwise switches the laser level off.
ź
Characteristics of the laser beam
n
The laser beam projects a bright dot on nearly all surfaces. However, the laser
dot can be most clearly visible in confined areas encapsulated by bright
surfaces (white wall tiles, timber panels) due to its red colour. Dark colours
absorb light (lower reflection factor) and the dot intensity is reduced.
NOTE: Bright, external sunlight makes the laser dot hardly visible.
Horizontal and vertical planes
n
After switching the laser level on the laser beam for the horizontal plane
ź
appears. Rotation of the base (13) makes it possible to mark out a
horizontal plane within the range of 360 degrees (see Fig. G, page 2).
To mark out a vertical or a horizontal plane one can use the linear lens (3)
ź
that splits the laser beam and forms the 'laser chalk line' . Spirit level

indicators for vertical (6) and horizontal (7) adjustments incorporated into
the instrument can be used to determine an accurate vertical or a horizontal
line. Such a line can be then rotated by 360 (see Fig. E, page 2).
Depending on the working requirements a vertical plane can be also
ź
marked out with use of the angular lens (2). That lens is to be placed onto
the optical laser source to deflect the laser beam by the angle of 90 (see Fig.
F, page 2).
When the laser level is put on a flat floor, without the tripod and the rotary
ź
base, the vertical distance of the laser beam from the floor level is 0,8"
(20 mm).
Examples of the laser level application
n
Marking of lines at the same height (installation of windows, wall sockets,
ź
etc.) (see Fig. G, page 2.). Levelling of suspended ceilings (see Fig. H,
page 2).
Civil engineering measurements, levelling of floors, erection of masonry
ź
walls, installation of balustrades, etc. (see Fig. I, page 2).
Taking measurements for determination of mutually perpendicular
ź
reference planes, e.g. for partitioning walls (see Fig. J, page 2).
Tracing lines for openings or cuts, e.g. in boards and panels, furniture (see
ź
Fig. K, page 2).
NOTE: The recommended working range of the traced lines – up to 6 m.
CLEARING, STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE:
1) Clean the appliance solely with a dry or a slightly moistened cloth. Do
never use any cleaning or abrasive agents. Visible dirt in the outlet orifice
of the laser beam (1) and in lenses should be gently removed with use of
sticks with cotton buds soaked with liquids for glass cleaning.
2) The level should be stored at a dry place, inaccessible to children or
animals.
3) The device is maintenance free and contains no components that could be
repaired by the user itself. When any defects or incorrect operation of the
device are detected please contact an authorized service point.

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES:
The symbol nearby denotes that old equipment must never be
disposed together with other wastes (with the penalty of a fine).
Hazardous components of electronic equipment may adversely
affect the natural environment and human health.
Each household may contribute to recovery and reuse (recycling) of old
machinery and equipment. Both in Poland and Europe a system for recovery of
used equipment either exists or is being developed. The system obliges all
organizations that sell such equipment to collect back the used machinery and
appliances. Moreover, general purpose collecting points for such equipment
are also available.
