English FIG. 14 SS PP OO MM KK PP NN offset height for working. To change the height, loosen the locking knob (SS) located on the left of the wall mount. Support LL the mounting base when adjusting the height. 6. Turn the adjustment knob (TT), located to the right of the wall mount, to move the laser level up and down to set your height. Use the wall mount measuring scale (OO) to pinpoint your mark. QQ NOTE: It may be helpful to turn the power on and turn the rotary head so that it puts a dot on one of the laser scales. The DEWALT target card is marked at 1-1/2" (38 mm), therefore, it may be easiest to set the offset of the laser to 1-1/2" (38 mm) below the track. 7. Once you have positioned the laser at the desired height, tighten the locking knob (SS) to maintain this position. RR CAUTION: Always use a ceiling wire hanger or equivalent material, in addition to the wall mount clamp locking knob, to help secure the laser level while mounting it to a wall. Thread the wire through the handle of the laser level. DO NOT thread the wire through the protective metal cage. Additionally, screws may be used to fasten the wall mount directly to the wall as a back FIG. 15 SS up. Screw holes (QQ) are TT located at the top of the wall mount. 4. Using the base leveling knob (RR) approximate NN a level position from the wall. 5.

This will affect beam quality and operating range. The lens should be cleaned with a cotton swab moistened with water as shown in Figure 16. • The flexible rubber shield can be cleaned with a wet lint-free cloth such as a cotton cloth. USE WATER ONLY - DO NOT use cleansers or solvents. Allow the unit to air dry before storing. • To maintain the accuracy of your work, check the calibration of the laser often. Refer to Field Calibration Check. • Calibration checks and other maintenance repairs can be performed by DEWALT service centers.
