    Safety Symbols The definitions below describe the level of severity for each signal word. Please read the manual and pay attention to these symbols. This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards.
  • Page 9: General Safety Rules

    General Safety Rules Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in hazardous radiation exposure, electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE The term “tool” in the warnings listed below refers to your mains- operated (corded) tool or battery-operated (cordless) tool.
  • Page 10 DO NOT place the laser tool in a position that may cause anyone to stare into the laser beam intentionally or unintentionally. Serious eye injury could result. ALWAYS position the laser tool securely. Damage to the laser tool and/or serious injury to the user could result if the laser tool falls.
  • Page 11 Electrical safety Batteries can explode or leak, cause injury or fire. To reduce this risk, always follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package. DO NOT short any battery terminals. DO NOT charge alkaline batteries. DO NOT mix old and new batteries. Replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of the same brand and type.
  • Page 12 DO NOT use any optical tools such as, but not limited to, tele- scopes or transits to view the laser beam. Serious eye injury could result. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a tool. Do not use a tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
  • Page 13: Intended Use

    Store idle tool out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or these instructions to operate the tool. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the operation.

  • Page 16 Preparation Inserting/Replacing the Battery Alkali-manganese batteries are recommended for the measuring tool. – Fold open the battery lid 7 and insert the batteries. When inserting, pay attention to the correct polarity according to the representation on the inside of the battery compartment. If the batteries become weak, the battery capacity indicator 3 will flash green.

    13 into the tool and tighten. Turn the knob and tool together as necessary to properly position the laser line or lines. adjustment knob on the ceiling grid clip 18 of the BM 3 17. Tip: It is recommended to clean the back of the L-bracket 16 before mounting via the magnets to make sure you have the optimal mag- netic hold of the tool on the mounting surface.
  • Page 18 Switching On and Off To save energy, only switch the measuring tool on when you are us- ing it. Do not leave the switched-on measuring tool unattended and switch the measuring tool off after use. Other persons could be blinded by the laser beam. –...
  • Page 19 Deactivating the Automatic Shut-off: – To deactivate automatic shut-off, hold down button 6 for at least 3 s with the measuring tool switched on. When automatic shut-off is deactivated, the laser lines will flash briefly as confirmation. Note: When the operating temperature exceeds 113° F (+ 45° C), the automatic shut-off can no longer be deactivated.

  • Page 22 Should the measuring tool exceed the maximum deviation during one of the tests, please have it repaired by a Bosch after-sales service. Checking the Height Accuracy of the Horizontal Line For this check, a free measuring distance of 16 ft (5 m) on a firm sur-...
  • Page 23 180° – Without turning the measuring tool, position it close to wall B. Switch the measuring tool on and allow it to level in. – Align the height of the measuring tool (using a tripod or by underlay- ing, if required) in such a manner that the cross point of the laser lines is projected against the previously marked point II on the wall B.
  • Page 24 180° – The difference d of both marked points I and III on wall A indicates the actual height deviation of the measuring tool. The maximum permitted deviation dmax can be calculated as follows: dmax = double the distance between the walls x 0.0118 in (0.3 mm) Example: If the distance between the walls is 16 ft (5 m), the maxi- mum deviation is dmax = 2 x 16 ft x 0.0118 in = 0.118 in (2 x 5m x 0.3 mm/m = 3mm).
  • Page 25 – Set up the measuring tool 16 ft (5 m) away turned by 180° and allow it to level in. – Align the height of the measuring tool (using a tripod or by under- laying, if required) in such a manner that the center of the laser line is projected exactly against the previously marked point II on wall B.
  • Page 26 – The difference d of both marked points I and III on wall A indicates the actual deviation of the measuring tool from the level plane. The maximum permitted deviation dmax can be calculated as follows: dmax = double the distance between the walls x 0.0118 in (0.3 mm) Example: If the distance between the walls is 16 ft (5 m), the maxi- mum deviation is dmax = 2 x 16 ft x 0.0118 in = 0.118 in (2 x 5m x 0.3 mm/m = 3mm).
  • Page 27 – Mark the center of the vertical laser line at the floor of the door opening (point I), at a distance of 16 ft (5 m) beyond the other side of the door opening (point II) and at the upper edge of the door opening (point III).
  • Page 28 – The difference d between point III and the center of the laser line at the upper edge of the door opening results in the actual deviation of the measuring tool from the vertical plane. – Measure the height of the door opening. The maximum permitted deviation dmax is calculated as follows: dmax = double height of the door opening x 0.0118 in (0.3 mm/m) Example: With a door opening height of 7 ft (2 m), the maximum per-...
  • Page 29: Working Advice

    Working Advice of the laser line changes with distance. Working with the Tripod (Accessory) A tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable measuring support. Position the measuring tool with the 1/4” tripod mount 10 onto the thread of the tripod or a commercially available camera tripod. For fastening to a commercially available construction tripod, use the 5/8”...
  • Page 30 Laser Viewing Glasses (Accessory) The laser viewing glasses filter out the ambient light. This makes the red light of the laser appear brighter to the eyes. Work Examples (see figures B2–F2, H and I) Application examples for the measuring tool can be found on the graphics pages.
  • Page 31: Maintenance And Service

    If the tool should fail despite the care taken in manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by an authorized after-sales service center for Bosch power tools. In all correspondence and spare parts orders, please always include the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of the tool.
