FAQs

What is the maximum range of the GCL 12V-50-22 CG?

The maximum range for visible lines is 25 meters. With an optional receiver (sold separately), the range can be extended up to 50 meters.

Can I use standard AA batteries with this laser?

Yes, the combi laser comes with an adapter for 4x 1.5 V LR6 (AA) alkaline batteries, offering flexibility when a 12V Li-Ion battery is not available.

How do I clean the laser window?

Clean the laser window gently with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using solvents or abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching.

Is the tool waterproof?

The GCL 12V-50-22 CG has an IP65 rating, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. It is not designed for submersion.

What is the benefit of the green laser lines?

Green laser lines offer up to four times better visibility compared to standard red laser lines, making them easier to see in bright ambient light conditions.

Does the Levelling Remote app work on both iOS and Android?

The Levelling Remote app is designed to work with compatible iOS and Android smartphones. Please check the app store for specific version requirements.

What accessories are included with the GCL 12V-50-22 CG?

The package typically includes a rotating mount (RM 20 Professional), 4 x 1.5 V LR6 battery (AA), an AA alkaline battery adapter, a laser target plate, and a pouch.

Troubleshooting

Laser lines are not appearing.

Ensure a charged battery or fresh AA batteries are correctly inserted. Check if the tool is switched on and the pendulum lock is disengaged for self-levelling.

Laser lines are not level or stable.

Verify the tool is placed on a stable surface. Ensure the self-levelling range (±4°) is not exceeded. If outside the range, the lines will blink rapidly.

App cannot connect to the laser.

Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and the laser is powered on. Confirm the laser is within the Bluetooth range. Try restarting both the app and the laser.

Poor laser visibility in bright conditions.

Utilize the laser target plate to create a visible dot on the surface. Consider using the optional LR 6/LR 7 Professional receiver for extended range and improved visibility in bright sunlight.

Tool displays an error code or behaves erratically.

Turn the tool off and on again. If the issue persists, consult the full user manual or contact Bosch Professional customer support.
