Turning the laser square on and off
• To turn laser square on, slide the power switch to the up position.
Note: This not only turns the laser on, but also releases the protective
pendulum lock.
• To turn laser square off, slide the power switch to the down position.
Auto-off feature
A battery saving Auto-off feature has been incorporated into laser square
which will shut the device off automatically in 20 minutes unless overridden.
To override the Auto-off feature simply turn the device on, off, and on again
within 4 seconds. Once the Auto-off feature has been overridden, all three
lasers will blink quickly for two seconds and the device will remain on for
eight hours before turning off automatically.
Out-of-level indicator
Laser Square is a self-leveling device which is effective only within the
specified range. If the device is not within this range all three laser beams
will blink quickly, indicating the need for laser square to be positioned on a
more level surface.
Low battery indicator
When the battery power becomes low, all three laser beams will blink
slowly, indicating the need for all three of the batteries to be replaced.
Note: Space has been provided in the storage box for spare batteries.
Note: laser square can be used for up to 10 hours during low battery
indication before it will turn off completely.
Using the reflective targets
The red plastic film used in the targets enhances the laser making the laser
dot much more visible. Tabs on the target allow it to be attached to a
standard tape measure which can then be used as a Storey pole.
Using the laser enhancement glasses
The red plastic used in the glasses enhances the laser, making the laser dot
more visible. These glasses are particularly useful when using laser square
outdoors or in brightly lit environments.
Battery replacement
Turn the slotted screw located at the back of laser square in the clockwise
direction. This will release the battery cover and provide access to the
batteries. Replace all three batteries, and then return the battery cover to its
original position following the steps illustrated on the next page. When the
battery cover is in place, give the slotted screw a quarter turn in the counter-
clockwise direction to lock the cover in place.
Note: Alkaline batteries offer the longest battery life when used in this
device.
