Troubleshooting
The Laser Does Not Turn On
• Check the AA batteries to make sure:
- Each battery is installed correctly, according to (+) and
(–) listed inside the batterycompartment.
- The battery contacts are clean and free of rust
orcorrosion.
- The batteries are new, high-quality, name brand
batteries to reduce the chance of batteryleakage.
• Make sure the AA batteries are in proper working condition.
If in doubt, try installing newbatteries.
• When using rechargeable batteries, make sure the batteries
are fullycharged.
• Be sure to keep the laserdry.
Maintenance
• When the laser is not in use, clean the exterior parts with a
damp cloth, wipe the laser with a soft dry cloth to make sure
it is dry, and then store the laser in the kit boxprovided.
• Although the laser exterior is solvent resistant, NEVER use
solvents to clean thelaser.
• Do not store the laser at temperatures below -5 ˚F (-20 ˚C)
or above 140 ˚F (60 ˚C).
• To maintain the accuracy of your work, check the laser often
to make sure it is properlycalibrated.
• Calibration checks and other maintenance repairs may be
performed by STANLEY servicecenters.
Using the Laser with Other Accessories

WARNING: Since accessories other than those offered by
STANLEY have not been tested with this laser, use of such
accessories with this laser could be hazardous.
Only use STANLEY® accessories that are recommended for use
with this model. Accessories that may be suitable for one laser
may create a risk of injury when used with another laser.
The laser is equipped with a 1/4-20 female thread on the
bottom, side, and back (FigureC) to accommodate current or
future STANLEY®accessories.
Other recommended accessories for use with this laser are
available at extra cost from your local dealer or authorized
service center. If you need assistance locating any accessory,
please contact your nearest STANLEY service center or visit our
website: http:// www.STANLEY.com.
Service and Repairs
NOTE: Disassembling the laser level will void all warranties on
theproduct.
To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance
and adjustment should be performed by authorized service
centers. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel may result in a risk of injury. To locate your nearest
STANLEY service center, go to http://www.STANLEY.com.
3. Use the bracket’s clamp (FigureG6) to hold the laser in place
on a stud, ceiling grid, orpole.
a. If necessary, rotate the clamp so it is positioned at the
correct angle for attaching to the object. While holding
the bracket arm with one hand, use your other hand to
turn the clamp (FigureG7).
b. Position the bracket’s clamp around the stud, ceiling grid,
orpole.
c. Turn the clamp knob (FigureG8) clockwise until the
clamp is tight around the object and the bracket is held
inplace.
• If the laser unit is heated above 120 ˚F (50 ˚C), the unit will
not turn ON. If the laser has been stored in extremely hot
temperatures, allow it to cool. The laser level will not be
damaged by using the Power/ Transport Lock switch before
cooling to its proper operatingtemperature.
The Laser Beams Flash
When in self-leveling mode, the lasers are designed to self-
level up to an average of 4° in all directions. If the laser is tilted
so much that the internal mechanism cannot level itself (or the
laser is not level when in manual mode), the laser beams will
flash indicating that the tilt range has beenexceeded.
THE FLASHING BEAMS CREATED BY THE LASER ARE NOT LEVEL
OR PLUMB AND SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR DETERMINING OR
MARKING LEVEL OR PLUMB. Try repositioning the laser on a
more levelsurface.
Laser Beams Will Not Stop Moving
The laser is a precision instrument. Therefore, if it is not
positioned on a stable (and motionless) surface, the laser will
continue to try to find level. If the beam will not stop moving, try
placing the laser on a more stable surface. Also, try to make sure
the surface is relatively flat and level, so the laser isstable.
