Power Supply
‣ The Extreme A3 is supplied with a rechargeable Ni-MH battery pack that is
located in the base of the unit.

‣ Charging time is approximately 5 hours.
‣ Use of the unit over time and changes in temperature may cause increases
or decreases in charging and operation time.
‣ The power indicator light will flash when the battery is low. The unit should
be re-charged as soon as possible.
‣ To charge the unit insert the charger into the port on the battery pack.
Progress will be shown by the power indicator display on the charger as below:

Ensure the unit is secured correctly and tightened in position.
Vertical Set Up
‣ Select a place as close as practical to the work site.
Ensure the location is clear of traffic.
‣ Place the laser onto a level surface with the control panel
facing upwards.
Operation
‣ To turn the unit on press the power button. Self levelling will
commence and the laser will begin to rotate.

Speed control
‣ Press the speed control button to cycle through various rotational speeds,
indicated by the speed indicator light.
Scanning mode
‣ To focus the laser beam between two points press the scanning mode
button. Pressing the button multiple times will adjust the angle of the beam.
‣ To cancel scan mode press the scanning mode button several times
to cycle through to full rotation.
Rotation
‣ Whilst the unit is in scanning mode press the clockwise rotation or counter
clockwise rotation button to change the rotation of the laser head.
Tilt alarm
‣ Once the unit has been levelled off the tilt alarm can be
enabled by pressing the tilt alarm button. The tilt alarm indicator light
will flash for approximately 15 seconds. Once the light is constant the
alarm is enabled.
‣ If the unit is disturbed while the alarm is active the unit will need to be
powered off and on again to reset its level position.
10
Setting up a grade
‣ Once the unit has levelled off and started rotating you can begin a slope or grade.
Adjusting the X-Axis
‣ Position the unit so that the X1 direction (see top of laser) is facing the direction
you wish to grade.
‣ Press the manual / automatic mode button on the control panel.
‣ The unit is now in manual mode and the X-axis indicator will be lit.
‣ Press the slope up or slope down arrows to adjust the grade accordingly.
‣ Once the grade is set exit out by pressing the manual / automatic mode button.
The laser will now adjust itself accordingly.
Adjusting the Y-Axis
‣ Position the laser so that the Y1 direction (see top of laser) is facing the direction
you wish to grade.
‣ Press the manual / automatic mode button twice on the control panel.
‣ The unit is now in manual mode and the Y-axis indicator will be lit.
‣ Press the slope up or slope down arrows to adjust the grade accordingly.

CHECKING CALIBRATION
Before doing any precision levelling it is advised to check the calibration of the unit.
‣ Set up the laser on a tripod at about 30m facing a wall or staff with a detector.
‣ Allow the unit to level.
‣ Detect and note laser position on the wall or staff.
‣ Without moving the tripod rotate the unit 180°.
‣ Detect and note laser position on the wall or staff.
‣ Calculate the distance between the two readings.
‣ The difference should be within 3mm at 30m.
‣ If the unit is out of calibration it is advised to send it in to Spot-on.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
‣ Reflective surfaces such as glass may reflect the beam, causing
two beams to strike the detector at the same time. This may
create inaccurate reference points.
‣ This is a precision instrument and should always be transported
within the carry case provided.
‣ Whenever possible, store the instrument in a dry, shady location.
‣ The A3 should be calibrated every 6 months, if ongoing
accurate levelling is required or an impact has occurred.
‣ The operator should check the A3 for accuracy before
precision levelling is attempted.
‣ The supplied charger is specific to this product. Do not purchase
or use any other type of charger or power adaptor.
‣ Clean the instrument with a dry, soft cloth after use in dusty, damp
or wet conditions before storing.
