Warranty

Receivers are warranted to be free of defects in material and workmanship for 

a period of two years. This warranty period is twenty-four months from the date 

the product is delivered from the dealer to the purchaser or is put into service 

as a demonstration or rental unit.
Please retain your warranty information and proof of purchase.
Any evidence of abuse, misuse, alteration, accident or negligent use or an 

attempt to repair products by unauthorized personnel or with parts other than 

those provided by the manufacturer automatically voids the warranty.
The  user  of  the  product  is  expected  to  follow  all  operating  instructions, 

periodically checking the instrument and the work as it progresses.
The  manufacturer's  liability  under  this  warranty  is  limited  to  repairing  or 

replacing  any  product  returned  to  an  authorized  service  center  for  that 

purpose. The foregoing states the entire liability of the manufacturer regarding 

the purchase and use of its product and they shall not be held responsible for 

any consequential loss or damage of any kind.
This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, expressed or implied, and constitutes 

all of the manufacturer's liability with respect to merchandise sold by it.

Maintenance and Care

Your Laser Receiver was shipped in a moisture resistant foam padded carrying 

case. If the unit is transported from job to job inside its factory-provided case 

and normal instrument precautions are followed, the unit will provide many 

years of service. 
Do not wipe dust or dirt off the laser receiver with a dry cloth as scratching 

could occur, possibly damaging these surfaces. Use only a good quality glass 

cleaner with a soft cloth on all external window surfaces. If these surfaces have 

hardened concrete or other materials on them, take the unit  to your Authorized 

Service Center for cleaning.
If the system will not be used for a 30 day period or more, it is recommended 

to remove the batteries from the receiver. Space is provided in the carrying 

case for the storage of batteries.
