CAUTION: When making any laser

CAUTION:
Make sure laser is securely
suspended by the strap.
To hang, thread the strap through the slot
in the top of the laser and fasten the hook
as shown in
figure 9
. Adjust the laser so
that it hangs relatively straight. The self-
leveling function will then compensate for
any minor error +/- 5°.
Laser operation
• Before attempting to use the laser, make
sure the tool is positioned on a relatively
smooth, flat and stable surface.
• Brightness of area may effect line visibility.
• When attaching to a mounting bracket or
using the hanging strap, mount the laser
securely.
• Be aware that extreme temperature
changes can cause movement or shifting
of building structures, equipment, etc.
which can effect accuracy. Verify your
set-up before each use as the laser may
have moved.
• This product is not recommended for
outdoor use.
