3. Method of operation: 3.1. Installation in joists / studs / panels I. Hole diameter ( small / large ) : 7 The HL 100 can be directly installed in holes from / ” to 3” in diameter using 8 the yellow locking nut (5). The large black locking nut (6) and the adapter 1 3 plate (7) are used for larger holes of 3 / ” to 4 / ” in diameter. Tighten the 4 4 locking nut until the tool is firmly in place. The conical shape centers the HL 100 in the hole. II. Material thickness ( min. / max. ) : 1 The HL

II. Aligning the laser dot horizontally (left - right): Mark the horizontal position on the second joist / stud. (No need to measure the vertical position). Turn on the laser(2). Dial the laser beam onto the mark by using the horizontal setting dial (4). ATTENTION : To ensure that the HL 100 is set up to point in the right direction, it is important that the lay out and drilling of the first joist/stud , as well as the horizontal measurement on the second joist/stud is done accurately.

IV. Continue to drill The laser is now correctly aligned. Drill the second hole by setting the drill bit directly on the center of the laser dot location. Clear the debris from the hole, if necessary, to allow laser beam to pass through. The laser dot will now show the correct location of the hole to be drilled on the third joist / stud. Continue to drill the following joists / studs by using the center of the laser dot as the exact hole location. You may prefers to mark the center of the dot
