Craftsman CMHT77630 Instructions Manual

10EBattery SafetyWARNING:Batteries can explode, or leak, and can causeinjury or fire. To reduce this risk:• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on thebattery label and package.• Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity(+ and –), as marked on the battery and theequipment.• Do not short battery terminals.• Do not charge disposable batteries.• Do not mix old and new batteries. Replace all batteriesat the same time with new batteries of the same brandand type.• Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose ofper local codes.• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.• Keep batteries out of reach of children.• Remove batteries when the device is not in use.Installing AA BatteriesLoad new AA batteries in the CMHT77630 laser.1. Turn the laser upside down.2. On the bottom of the laser, lift up the latch to open thebattery compartment cover (Figure B 1 ).3. Insert two new, high-quality, name brand AA batteries,making sure to position the - and + ends of eachbattery as noted inside the battery compartment (FigureB 2 ).4.

Place the laser on a smooth, flat, level surface, withthe laser facing straight ahead toward the opposingwall (0º position).2. Turn the laser ON to display the horizontal andvertical laser beams. Either:• Move the Power/Transport Lock switch to the leftto keep the pendulum locked and display the crossbeams in manual mode (Figure A 1 ).• Move the Power/Transport Lock switch to the rightto unlock the pendulum and display the crossbeams in self-leveling mode (Figure A 3 ).3. Check the horizontal and vertical laser beams.• If the laser is tilted so much that it cannot self-level(> 4°), or the laser is not level in manual mode, thelaser beams will flash.• If the laser beams flash, the laser is not level (orplumb) and should NOT BE USED for determining ormarking level or plumb. Try repositioning the laseron a level surface.4. If ANY of the following statements are TRUE,continue with the instructions for Checking LaserAccuracy BEFORE USING THE LASER for a project.• This is the first time you are using the laser(in case the laser was exposed to extremetemperatures).• The laser has not been checked for accuracy ina while.• The laser may have been dropped.
