User Manual
In addition to using the laser in horizontal mode, you can use it in vertical
mode. To do so, however, an after-market vertical mounting bracket is
needed. For instruction on how to use the vertical mounting bracket, consult
the specific manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Insert the tripod’s 5/8-11 screw into the laser’s threaded 5/8-11 tripod
mount.
2. Turn the screw counterclockwise to hold the laser securely in place.
3. To detach the laser from the tripod, turn the screw clockwise.
Connecting the Laser to the Adapters
Depending on the laser system you purchase, additional mounting
accessories may be shipped with your laser. The long-range (agricultural)
laser system includes a quick-disconnect adapter and a 3 1/2-8 adapter. The
steep-grade laser system includes a steep-grade adapter and offset plate.
Quick-Disconnect and 3 1/2-8 Adapters
1. Thread the appropriate adapter into the 5/8-11 threaded mount on the
bottom of the laser.
Note: The carrying case is designed so the adapter can remain on the laser.
Steep-Grade Adapter and Offset Plate
1. Set up a tripod so that its mounting surface is as close to true level as
possible. Make sure that one of the tripod legs is aligned to the down-
grade side of the ∠ axis of the laser.
2. Connect the offset plate to the steep-grade adapter.
3. Connect the steep-grade adapter (with laser and offset plate connected) to
the tripod.
4. Adjust the slope knob on the steep-grade adapter to the desired grade.
Align the adapter to the desired steep-slope direction hub.
5. Thread the offset plate into the 5/8-11 threaded mount on the bottom of
the laser. Make sure the offset plate is connected at the mark that indicates
the desired grade.
