Featuring self-levelling technology and bright laser diodes, this compact tool makes precision work effortless for tasks requiring exact measurements and straight lines. The laser level offers three preprogrammed modes to suit different applications: self-levelling laser cross with plumb points, laser cross only, and plumb points only. All modes can be used with the incline function, allowing you to work outside the standard self-levelling range when diagonal lines are needed. The self-levelling function automatically aligns laser points and lines in just 4 seconds, ensuring consistently straight and accurate results. With a 100° opening angle, the UniversalLevel 2 projects longer laser lines even at short working distances, providing excellent coverage for your workspace. The tool delivers levelling accuracy of ±0.5 mm/m across a working range of up to 12 metres, making it ideal for hanging pictures, shelves, and wallpaper, centring light fixtures, or installing curtain rails and banisters. Weighing just 450g and measuring 122 x 104 x 63 mm, this laser level is compact and portable for easy use around your home. It features an integrated 1/4" tripod thread for stable mounting when needed and runs on two standard AA batteries for convenient cordless operation. Features and Benefits: • Self-levelling laser cross with top and bottom plumb points for versatile alignment tasks • Three preprogrammed modes plus incline function for flexible working options • 100° opening angle projects long laser lines even at short distances • High-quality bright laser diodes with ±0.5 mm/m accuracy for precise results • Compact, lightweight design at just 450g for easy handling and portability • 1/4" tripod thread for stable mounting on standard photography tripods Specifications: Working range, laser line: 12 m Laser diode, laser line: 630-640 nm Laser diode, laser point: 650-660 nm Laser class: 2 Self-levelling time, typ: 4 s Levelling range: ± 4° Opening angle: 100° Accuracy: ± 0.5 mm/m Tripod thread: 1/4" Weight: 0.450 kg Battery: 2 x 1.5 V LR6 (AA) Tool dimensions (L x W x H): 122 x 104 x 63 mm

Can I use this tool for diagonal lines?
Yes, the incline function allows for diagonal line projection when the tool is manually set at an angle.
What type of batteries does it use?
It uses two 1.5 V LR6 (AA) batteries.
How long does self-levelling take?
The self-levelling process typically takes around 4 seconds.
Can I mount this on a tripod?
Yes, it features an integrated 1/4" tripod thread for mounting on standard tripods.
What are the three preprogrammed modes?
The modes are: self-levelling laser cross with plumb points, laser cross only, and plumb points only.
Troubleshooting
Tool does not power on.
Ensure the batteries are correctly inserted and have sufficient charge. Check if the on/off switch is fully engaged.
Laser lines are not straight or level.
Verify the tool is placed on a relatively stable surface. Ensure the levelling range (±4°) has not been exceeded. If using the incline function, the laser will not self-level.
Laser is dim or not visible.
Check battery levels. In very bright conditions, the laser may be less visible; try to use in dimmer light or use a laser receiver (sold separately) if available for longer ranges.
Self-levelling takes too long or fails.
Ensure the tool is within its ±4° levelling range. Check for any obstructions around the pendulum mechanism. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
