2.9 Manual slope
The WLA08 can be used to set a manual slope on both X and Y axes.
Two modes are available
• Complete manual mode:
• Semi-automatic mode:
For slopes up to 10%, set up the laser in horizontal mode and use
the remote to set the slope following instructions below.
For slopes greater than 10%, set up the laser in vertical mode and
use the inclined plane feature (next section).

2.9.1 Manual mode

1. After turning the laser on and allowing it to self-level, press the
Man key (19). The LED next to it (22) will blink, indicating you are
in manual mode and you can set slope in the X axis. The head will
start rotating.
2. Turn the laser so that X on the top of the head protection faces
the direction of the slope (and X' faces away).
3. Press < (13) to set a positive slope in X and > (14) to set a neg-
ative slope.
4. To switch to the Y axis, press the H.I. key. Both LEDs (21 and 22)
will blink, indicating you're in manual mode and can set slope in
the Y axis.
5. Turn the laser so that Y on the top of the head protection faces
the direction of the slope (and Y' faces away).
6. Press < (13) to set a positive slope in Y and > (14) to set a nega-
tive slope.
2.9.2 Semi-automatic mode
1. After turning the laser on, hold the Man key (19) for a few sec-
onds. The LED next to it (22) will be on continually. The laser is in
automatic self-leveling mode in X axis, and manual mode in Y axis.
2. You can to use the H.I. Alert (18) safeguard function on the X
axis while Y is on manual.
3. Press < (13) to set a positive slope in Y and > (14) to set a
negative slope. The X axis will stay level.
Press twice on the Man key to return to the automatic mode.
IMPORTANT: In manual mode, the head will rotate
even if the laser is not leveled. The H.I. Alert function
is not available when your laser is in manual mode.

X and Y axis will be both manual
X in automatic / Y in manual
2.9.3 Inclined plane
The laser can also be tilted, for manual slope, at various angles on the
wall mount. A tripod with rotating mounting plate will speed setup.
1. Set the laser in vertical mode, preferably on a tripod. If set-
ting on the ground, flip down the support plate for stability.
2. After the laser has self-leveled, set in manual or semi-auto-
matic mode.
3. Loosen the knobs on either side (1) to partially separate the
mount from the laser.
4. Move the laser to the approximate inclined position and
tighten slightly.
5. Move to the final position and tighten further.

3. Power

When battery power is low, the laser head will stop rotating and
the low battery LED next to the On/Off key will stay on (20).

3.1 Installing alkaline batteries

1. To access the battery compartment, loosen the knobs connecting
the laser to the wall mount.
2. Use a coin or a screwdriver to remove the cover of the battery
compartment at the back of the laser.
3. Insert two alkaline batteries (D size or LR20), following the polar-
ities indicated at the bottom of the battery compartment. (The + con-
tact is rounded and raised). When replacing the batteries, change
both at the same time.
4. Replace the compartment and tighten with a coin or screwdriver.

3.2 Using rechargeable batteries

If your laser has a rechargeable battery, you must charge it for 15
hours before first using the laser.
1. Insert the charger plug into the jack located at the back of the
laser, under the wall mount.
2. Plug the charger into an electrical outlet (110 volts or 220 volts).
3. Charge for 15 hours.
