II. Structural Features and Operating Principle
1 .Structural features:
The instrument integrates the power supply module, optics, and precision mechanics into a single unit, featuring an aesthetically pleasing appearance, compact size, and lightweight construction.
Instrument coarse adjustment uses 360° The rotatable locking mechanism features a fixing rod and a suspension assembly with a locking device, enabling more convenient and quicker instrument fixation. The instrument can be finely adjusted via a micro-adjustment mechanism through an angle of no less than 1.5°. Make fine horizontal and vertical adjustments within the scope.
2 .Working principle:
Connect the instrument to the supply voltage. AC127V Subsequently, the power supply module converts the input power into a DC voltage to energize the laser tube, generating a laser beam. This beam is then directed over long distances via an optical system, with a maximum range of 500. Rice, 800 Rice, 1200 Rice.

IV. Installation, Adjustment, and Use


1 .Installation
Power Connection: Ensure that the supply voltage is within the AC voltage range specified on the nameplate; under no circumstances is it permissible to open the enclosure while energized in underground operations. Connect the instrument’s mining cable and grounding wire to the correct terminals, verify that all connections are secure and there are no loose or shorted circuits, then tighten all securing screws before applying power to illuminate the display.
( 1 ) Perform coarse adjustments of the instrument in the vertical and horizontal directions as required by the orientation of the measuring instrument.
Vertical coarse adjustment: Loosen the set screw, rotate the instrument along the anchor bolt to align the laser beam in the vertical direction to the desired position (at the mid-chest line), then tighten the set screw.
Horizontal coarse adjustment: Loosen the bolt, slide the instrument along the mounting rod to align the laser beam horizontally to the desired position (at the midline), then tighten the bolt.
( 2 ) Then, precisely adjust the direction of the laser beam according to the project requirements, as follows:
Horizontal adjustment: First lock the vertical adjustment screw, then simultaneously rotate the left and right horizontal adjustment screws in the same direction to move the light spot horizontally. Once properly adjusted, lock both horizontal adjustment screws.
Vertical adjustment: First lock the horizontal adjustment screw, then rotate the upper and lower vertical adjustment screws in the same direction to move the light spot vertically. Once properly adjusted, lock both screws.
Please note: After the spot has been accurately adjusted in both the horizontal and vertical directions, the adjustment screws must be locked simultaneously. The instrument is factory-calibrated to ensure the spot remains within the specified range, so no on-site adjustment is required by the user. If adjustment is nevertheless necessary, please follow the procedures outlined in the troubleshooting section.
V. Safety Warnings
