Page 6 LASER SAFETY AVOID EXPOSURE: Laser radiation is emitted from this product. Use of controls, adjustments or procedures other than those specified herein may result in laser radiation exposure. Never stare directly at the beam or view directly with optical instruments. This label is attached to the unit at the laser aperture. AVOID EXPOSURE LASER LIGHT IS EMITTED FROM THIS APERTURE IMPORTANT: “DANGER” labels are attached to every LCL4. They are not to be removed or defaced.
OPERATION Pendulum Lock The LCL4 is a precision instrument and should be treated with care. When not in use, the pendulum should always be in the off position (figure1). Locking the pendulum allows the LCL4 to better withstand vibrations and shock incurred during transportation or if the unit is dropped. Locked Line Angle In the locked line angle position (Figure 2), the pendulum is locked and will not automatically level or plumb the lines.
Page 8 OPERATION Horizontal, Vertical, Plumb & Cross Line Options The LCL4 has three line options, accessible by using the line options button located on the top of the instrument. If the unit has been turned on, the plumb up and down beams will always be on. Use the line option button to cycle through the level (horizontal), plumb (vertical) or cross line modes, as shown below.
USING THE UNIVERSAL MOUNT Page 9 The LCL4 comes with a multi-purpose universal mount that allows the unit to be attached to multiple surfaces including wood, metal, pipes, construction tripods, camera tripods and flat surfaces. 1/4” Tripod Mount Use the threaded hole, located on the bottom of the universal mount, to mount the universal mount and the attached LCL4 to a camera tripod.

Page 12 CALIBRATION It is recommended that you check your LCL4 periodically to assure its accuracy. To check level: Choose two walls approximately 4 - 5 metres apart (figure 1). Turn on the LCL4 to the “auto level” setting. With the laser 15cm away from and facing Surface 1, carefully mark the center of the line where the lines cross. Label this mark “A1” (figure 1). Swivel the laser 180 degrees and mark the center of the line where the lines cross on Surface 2. Label this mark “B1” (figure 1).
Page 13 CALIBRATION Surface 1 Surface 2 A2 B2 x x 15cm 4-5m Figure 2 To check plumb: Choose a door jamb with a minimum of 2.5 metres clearance on each side of the door. Turn on the LCL4 to “auto level” setting. With your laser at point “A” (figure 3), make two marks on the floor. Make the first mark at 2.5 metres from point “A” centred on the door header above. Mark this point “B”. Make a second mark 5 metres from point “A”. Make this point “C”.
