ARL509TM INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing the ARL509™. A self levelling builders
rotating laser level that is built tough.
The ARL509™ is ideal for general site levelling and landscaping, simply set
it up on a tripod, unlock the pendulum, it self levels and the laser starts
rotating. Then using the supplied LR715 receiver you can set up your levels.
The ARL509™ is manual levelling when set up on its side mount for vertical
alignment.
The ARL509™ also has variable rotation speeds to help with visibility indoors.
Other features of the ARL509™ include rechargeable Ni-Mh and Std “AA”
Size battery operation and Two Year Redback Warranty. (See page 12)

ARL509TM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Battery Instructions
To charge these battery packs simply insert the charger plug into the
charging socket. The LED on the charger is illuminated red during the
charging process and will turn green once the batteries are fully charged.
Only the special rechargeable packs can be charged, if normal batteries are
installed when the charger is plugged in nothing will be charged.
WhenthepowerLEDonthekeypadashes,therechargeablebatterypacks
need recharging or standard batteries need replacing. Note the charger will
only charge the supplied rechargeable battery pack.
Handy Hints
•
Prior to initial use, charge the rechargeable batteries for at least 8
hours.
•
Runningrechargeablebatteriescompletelyatwillincreasebatterylife.
•
The ARL509™ can operate off mains by plugging the charger (for
indoor use only) into the unit.
•
Remember the ARL509™ can operate using standard batteries when
rechargeable pack is out of charge.
The ARL509 has two battery options either 4 x standard “AA” size Alkaline
or the Ni-Mh rechargeable packs. For standard 4 x “AA” alkaline operation
simply insert into standard battery holder in the direction indicated and
tighten the locking screw.
To use the rechargeable
battery pack rst remove
standard batteries if
inserted and replace them
with the two rechargeable
batteries plugging in cables
as shown in picture.

Turning Laser On (Horizontal Operation)
Before the ARL509TM can be powered up for
normal horizontal rotation the pendulum
lockingknobrstneedstoberotatedtothe
“ON” position, this disengages the protective
pendulum lock.
Now when the power button is pressed
the laser will be powered up and the head
of laser begins to rotate and after a couple
of seconds the magnetically dampened
pendulum will be self levelled.
If the laser emits a loud beeping sound
then the laser housing is setup outside self
levelling range, re-setup and try again.
Rotation Speed Settings
• A short press of the Rotating Speed Button will switch the
rotating speed between 3 different rotational speeds, “High” (default),
“Medium” and “Low”. Rotation speed will effect receiver performance
at different distances and also help visibility of the laser beam when
used indoors.
Turning Laser On (Vertical Operation)
The ARL509TM can be used on its side for
vertical rotation and alignments in this
orientation the Pendulum lock must remain
in the “OFF” locked position, levelling of the
laser is manual and is achieved by levelling
off the bubble vial built into the keypad
using the “Levelling Knob” see page 4.

Vertical Rotation Operation for Site Layout
ARL509TM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The ARL509TM can be used on its side for vertical alignment or together with
the dot laser out of the front to produce a 90 degree square for site layout.
The ARL509TM can be placed on its side with the datum marker over the
correct point and the laser levelled with the bubble vial and manual levelling
knob.
For site layout squaring;
• Place datum marker over the datum point marking the conjunction of
the 90 degree lines.
• Align laser housing so dot is striking target point along the one line of
the 90 degrees, adjust the housing of the laser left and right to achieve
this.
• Once the dot is on the target use the receiver to pick up the rotating line
on the second line of the 90 degree. Your square is now set.
Using the ARL509TM with the built in Wall Mount
The ARL509TM side mount
plate can be used either on the
ground on on a tripod using
the 5/8” – 11tpi screw thread
or it can be used as a basic
wall mounting bracket. Simply
by using the screw hanging
location hole.

• A press of the power button toggles the receiver on and off.
• The Speaker button toggles through 3 speaker volumes.
• Pressing the Coarse/Fine Mode button toggles through 3 levels
therstbeingnemodeindicatedbyontheLCDtheaccuracyof
level is at its highest with 1mm tolerance movement by the receiver
before showing it off level. The next coarser mode allows 2mm
before showing off level the third press shows no symbol on the LCD
and allows 3mm before showing off level, these two coarser modes are
more suitable for general site levelling.
• The Back Light button toggles the LCD display back light.

Laser Receiver LR715 (refer to diagram page 5)
The LR715 is a heavy duty dual sided display rotating laser receiver, it can be
either hand held or with the staff bracket clamped onto a staff. The bubble
vials can be used to keep the receiver level.
The LR715 has two large LCD displays with progressive bars indicating when
the laser gets closer to the level mark. Move the receiver up and down (side
to side vertical rotation) slowly and watch the display change when the solid
tone is heard and the centre line is shown then the receiver is at the height
of the laser beam plane. The receiver will auto power down after 10 minutes
when not receiving laser pulses.
LR715TM RECEIVER INSTRUCTIONS

Calibration & Self Check
AllRedbackLasershavebeencheckedforcalibrationandcertiedbyone
of our technicians here in Australia prior to despatch and should under
normal conditions not go out of calibration. A calibration certied sticker
with the date and name of technician is located on the laser itself. It is
worth checking calibration from time to time particularly after any known
knocks or drops. An easy way to continually check calibration is to always
double check you work with the laser located in a different position or use
analternateverticalline.Variousothermethodsforcheckingcalibrationcan
be found at www.redbacklasers.com.au/downloads or the laser can
be returned to our service department for checking and re-calibration. We
at Redback Lasers provide a once off free calibration and check within the
duration of the warranty period see page 16 for details.
