Introduction Thank you for choosing one of the Spectra Precision Lasers from the Trimble family of precision lasers. The grade laser is an easy-to-use tool that offers accurate horizontal, vertical and sloped laser reference up to 1300 ft (400 m) away using a receiver. For Your Safety For hazardless and safe operation, read all the user guide instructions. • Use of this product by people other than those trained on this product may result in exposure to hazardous laser light.
HOW TO USE THE LASER SYSTEM POWERING THE LASER Batteries WARNING Ni-MH batteries may contain small amounts of harmful substances. Be sure to charge the battery before using it for the first time, and after not using it for an extended length of time. Charge only with specified chargers according to device manufacturer‘s instructions. Do not open the battery, dispose of in fire or short circuit; it may ignite, explode, leak or get hot causing personal injury.
LASER SETUP Position the laser horizontally (tripod mount and rubber feet downward!) on a stable platform, wall mount or tripod at the desired elevation. The laser recognizes automatically whether it is used horizontally or vertically when switched on. Turning On/Off the laser Press the power button to turn On/Off the laser. Note: Depending on the setup (horizontal or vertical) and if a grade value has been dialed in, the unit starts the temperature/reference check while the thermometer symbol is flashing.
Standard Features X-Y-grade entering – Step and Go mode Quickly press and release button 2 starts the grade entering mode. Both grade values will be shown.
Use button 1 or 2 (Plus or Minus) to set the desired digit. The laser will self-level to the required grade position after confirming the grade change with button 4. Note: The bubble symbols at the laser’s LCD will flash until the laser has been self-leveled to the requested grade position. Using the Rotation mode Repeatedly pressing the button 4 toggles through 300, 600, 900 rpm regardless if the unit is in automatic or manual mode.
Menu functions when set up horizontal Menu functions when set up vertical Note: Pairing function is needed to pair an already paired remote with a new transmitter. The new transmitter has to be set to the pairing dialog for this operation. Otherwise the pairing can not be successful processed. The pairing information of the previous pairing is still stored in the previous paired transmitter and should be deleted in the pairing dialog of this transmitter 7 130533trimble_GL622_00_Buch 7 29.05.
Automatic PlaneLok mode The PlaneLok mode can be activated in horizontal and vertical automatic and manual mode. In PlaneLok mode when set up horizontal, the beam will be locked to a fixed elevation point (up to 80 m (260 ft) located on one axis at each side of the laser. For keeping vertical alignments fixed to a direction point, PlaneLok can be used in both directions on the X-axis. 1. Set up the laser over the reference point. 2. Attach the HL750 receiver to a grade rod.
Automatic Grade Match The Grade Match mode can be activated in horizontal automatic and manual mode. In Grade Match mode, the laser can be used to measure the existing grade value between two known elevation points (up to 80 m (260 ft) located on one axis at each side of the laser 1. Set up the laser over the reference point. 2. Attach the HL750 receiver to a grade rod.
Automatic Axis Alignment (only GL622) Automatic Axis Alignment mode adjusts automatically the direction the grade axis is pointing to the receiver’s location by an electronically simulation of rotating the unit on its base to match the hub. Using Axis Alignment, the laser axis can be aligned to one direction hub (up to 80 m (260 ft) located on one axis at each side of the laser. 1. Set up the laser over the reference point. 2.
Info Press and release the MENU button at the Standard Display and select Info. Buttons 6/7 can be used to toggle between GL, RC and Runtime. Press and release button 4 to confirm the selection. The GL/RC information (software version, ID, etc.) or the runtime of the GL will be displayed. Service Press and release the MENU button at the Standard Display and select Service. Buttons 6/7 can be used to toggle between Calibration Y and Calibration X OR Calibration Z when set up vertically.
Special Features - Vertical Setup Line Scan Line Scan centers the rotor horizontally and can be used to align the plumb beam to a desired horizontal position. Press and release the MENU button at the Standard Display and select Line Scan. Pressing and releasing button 4 activates the Line Scan mode while the rotor checks the limits of the X- axis and stops at the center position. Pressing button 3 (ESC) stops the movement and changes the unit into manual mode.
Pairing the transmitter with remote control The chain symbol at button 1 indicates the remote has never been paired before which means no radio connectivity is given. Pressing the pairing button 1 will initiate a pairing request. The transmitter has to be in pairing mode as shown above. Note: Make sure that pairing mode is selected only at one transmitter which is within the radio range of the remote during a pairing request. Otherwise pairing procedure can be confused.
Grade Entry Select the Grade Entry icon and press and release button 4 to open the Grade Entry menu. Buttons 6/7 can be used to toggle between Step and Go and Digit Select. Press and release button 4 to confirm the selection. Step and Go Digit Select Grade Display Select the Grade Display icon and press and release button 4 to open the Grade Display menu. The desired Grade Display Mode (Percent/ Permille/Degree) can be selected using the buttons 6/7.
User Name Select the User name icon and press and release button 4 to open the User name menu. One row for typing names in big font (15) and one row in small font (18) for letters or numbers are available. Button 5 and 8 can be used to toggle between both rows. Changing the characters can be done using the buttons 1 and 2. Press and release button 4 to confirm the selected user name. The display falls back to the main menu.
Select Language Select the Language icon and press and release button 4 to open the Language menu.Use button 5 to 8 to select the required local language (EN, DE, IT, FR, ES, PT, NL, DA, NO, SV, FI, PL, TR, CZ). Press and release button 4 to store the selected Language; unit falls back to the standard menu. CALIBRATION Checking Calibration of the Y- and X-Axes 1. Set up the laser 30 m (100 ft) from a wall and allow it to level. 2. Set the grade to 0.000% in both axes. 3.
Troubleshooting Any error message can be deleted with a short press of button 4 (OK). The table shows the related description and possible solutions. The next service center should be contacted if a different error message as shown at the table will be displayed.
PROTECTING THE UNIT Do not expose the unit to extreme temperatures or temperature changes (do not leave inside the car). The unit is very robust and can resist damage if dropped even from tripod height. Before continuing your work, always check the leveling accuracy. See Checking Calibration section. The laser is water proof and can be used indoors and outdoors. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Dirt and water on the glass parts of laser or prism will influence beam quality and operating range considerably.
