Accuracy Check Of The Measuring Tool - Bosch GLL 3-80 C Professional Originalbetriebsanleitung

22 | English
guard (3) lighting up indicates merely that the levelling ac-
curacy needs to be checked.
Once the warning has been triggered, the indicator CAL
guard (3) lights up until the levelling accuracy has been
checked and the indicator switched off.
Procedure in the Event of a Calibration Warning Being
Triggered
Check the levelling accuracy of the measuring tool (see "Ac-
curacy Check of the Measuring Tool", page 22).
If the maximum deviation has not been exceeded in any of
the tests, switch the indicator CAL guard (3) off. To do so,
press and hold the receiver mode button (5) and the
Bluetooth® button (9) at the same time for at least 3 s. The
indicator CAL guard (3) will go out.
If the measuring tool exceeds the maximum deviation in one
of the checks, it should be sent to the Bosch after-sales ser-
vice for repair.

Accuracy Check of the Measuring Tool

Influences on Accuracy
The largest influence is exerted by the ambient temperature.
In particular, temperature differences that occur from the
ground upwards can refract the laser beam.
Since the temperature stratification is greatest at ground
level, you should always mount the measuring tool on a tri-
pod for measuring distances of 20 m or more. In addition,
position the measuring tool in the centre of the work surface,
wherever this is possible.
In addition to external influences, device-specific influences
(e.g. falls or heavy impacts) can also lead to deviations. For
this reason, check the levelling accuracy each time before
beginning work.
First check the levelling accuracy of the horizontal laser line,
then the levelling accuracy of the vertical laser lines.
If the measuring tool exceeds the maximum deviation in one
of the checks, it should be sent to the Bosch after-sales ser-
vice for repair.
Checking the Horizontal Levelling Accuracy of the
Transverse Axis
For this check, you will need a free measuring distance of
5 m on firm ground between two walls (designated A and B).
– Mount the measuring tool close to wall A on a tripod, or
place it on a firm, flat surface. Switch on the measuring
tool in the mode with automatic levelling. Select the oper-
ating mode for generating a horizontal laser plane and a
vertical laser plane directly in front of the measuring tool.

– Aim the laser at the closer wall A and allow the measuring
tool to level in. Mark the middle of the point at which the
laser lines cross on the wall (point I).

– Turn the measuring tool 180°, allow it to level in and mark
the point where the laser lines cross on the opposite wall
B (point Ⅱ).
– Position the measuring tool – without rotating it – close to
wall B, switch it on and allow it to level in.

– Align the height of the measuring tool (using the tripod or
by placing objects underneath as required) so that the
point where the laser lines cross exactly hits the previ-
ously marked point Ⅱ on wall B.
