The Bosch UNIVERSALLEVEL 2 is a cross line laser level supplied complete with tripod and soft case...The Bosch UNIVERSALLEVEL 2 is a cross line laser level supplied complete with tripod and soft case, designed for accurate levelling and alignment tasks around the home. Ideal for DIY enthusiasts tackling projects such as hanging shelves, wallpapering, installing curtain rails, or centring light fixtures, this compact laser level combines precision with ease of use. Featuring high-quality bright laser diodes with an accuracy of ±0.5mm/m, the UniversalLevel 2 delivers reliable results across a 12-metre working range. The self-levelling function automatically aligns laser lines and points within approximately 4 seconds, eliminating the need for manual adjustment. Three preprogrammed modes offer versatility: a self-levelling laser cross with plumb points, laser cross only, or plumb points only. The 100° opening angle projects longer laser lines even at short working distances, making it practical for smaller rooms or confined spaces. An incline function allows for diagonal laser line projection outside the standard self-levelling range, expanding the tool's capabilities for varied applications. The integrated 1/4" tripod thread ensures compatibility with the included tripod for stable, hands-free operation. Compact and lightweight at just 450g, this laser level runs on two standard AA batteries and includes a protective soft case for convenient storage between projects. Features and Benefits: • Self-levelling laser cross with top and bottom plumb points for accurate vertical and horizontal alignment • Three preprogrammed modes for flexible application across different tasks • Incline function enables diagonal laser line projection for non-standard angles • 100° opening angle projects extended laser lines even at short distances • Complete set with tripod and soft case for immediate use and protected storage Specifications: Working range: 12m Laser diode (line): 630-640nm Laser diode (point): 650-660nm Laser class: 2 Self-levelling time: 4 seconds (typical) Levelling range: ±4° Opening angle: 100° Accuracy: ±0.5mm/m Tripod thread: 1/4" Weight: 0.45kg Battery: 2 x 1.5V LR6 (AA) Dimensions (L x W x H): 122 x 104 x 63mm
The Bosch UniversalLevel 2 Cross Line Laser is designed for DIY enthusiasts needing precise alignment for home projects like hanging shelves or installing fixtures. Its key benefit is the automatic self-levelling capability combined with multiple projection modes for versatile use. A potential caveat is its 12-meter working range, which may be limited for very large spaces. This compact laser level features bright, high-quality diodes, a 100° opening angle for longer lines, and an incline function for diagonal projections.

It uses two 1.5V LR6 (AA) batteries.
Can I project diagonal lines with this laser level?
Yes, the incline function allows for diagonal laser line projection.
What are the three preprogrammed modes?
The modes are: self-levelling laser cross with plumb points, laser cross only, and plumb points only.
How should I clean the laser lenses?
Use a soft, dry cloth or a microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Troubleshooting
Laser lines are not appearing.
Ensure batteries are correctly inserted and charged. Check that the pendulum lock is disengaged and the unit is switched on.
Laser lines are not level or straight.
Verify that the device is placed on a stable surface. Check the levelling range (±4°); if the surface is too tilted, the self-levelling function will not engage. Ensure the pendulum lock is not engaged.
Device is flashing or beeping continuously.
This indicates that the device is outside its self-levelling range. Move the device to a more level surface or adjust its position.
Low battery indicator is on.
Replace the 2 x 1.5V LR6 (AA) batteries with new ones.
Laser line is dim or faint.
Ensure the laser lenses are clean. In very bright conditions, the laser visibility may be reduced; consider using a laser receiver (sold separately) or working in less direct light.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Automatic self-levelling for quick and accurate setup.
