HOW TO READ METRIC CUT & FILL
FILL CUT
1. Set rod foot on the elevation you wish to use as your reference; i.e. finish grade, subgrade, etc.
2. Run laser receiver up or down the side of the rod and / or raise or lower front rod section until you
get the “on grade” signal on your laser detector.
3. Loosen the tape lock pin (lower knob) and disengage the tape lock pin from the tape grommet.
4. Roll the tape until the laser detector pointer is at zero (between the blue and red sections).
5. Lock the tape by engaging the tape lock pin into the closest grommet, then tighten the knob.
6. To determine the amount of cut or fill at any location within the range of your laser, set the rod
down and find the “on grade” signal with your laser detector. Read across from the detector pointer
and the tape will tell you how much to cut or fill.
EXAMPLE:
Rod reading is in “BLUE” section 125 centimeters. Existing grade is too LOW.
Yo u FILL 125 centimeters to get up to grade.
Rod reading is in
“RED” section 80 centimeters. Existing grade is too HIGH.
Yo u CUT 80 centimeters to get down to grade.
