2IntroductionThank you for choosing one of the Spectra Precision Lasers from the Trimble family of precision lasers.The universal laser is an easy-to-use tool that offers accurate horizontal, vertical and sloped laser reference up to 1300 ft (400 m) away using a receiver. The plumb beam can be detected automatically and manually using the additional SpotFinder For Your Safety For hazardless and safe operation, read all the user guide instructions.LASER RADIATIONAVOID DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE CLASS 3A/3R LASER PODUCT• Useofthisproductbypeopleotherthanthosetrainedonthisproductmayresultinexposuretohazardouslaser light.• Donotremovewarninglabelsfromtheunit.• TheUL633isClass3A/3R(<5mW,600...680nm).• Neverlookintothelaserbeamordirectittotheeyesofotherpeople.• Alwaysoperatetheunitinawaythatpreventsthebeamfromgettingintopeople‘seyes.• Ifinitialserviceisrequired,whichresultsintheremovaloftheouterprotectivecover,removalmustonlybeperformed by factory-trained personnel.Caution:Useofotherthanthedescribeduserandcalibrationtoolsorotherproceduresmayresultinexposuretohazardouslaserlight.Caution:UsingdifferentthandescribedattheUL633userguide,mayresultinunsafeoperation.COMPONENTS a Keypad/LCD-Display b Handle c Rotor with fan beam lens d Sunshade e Axes-Alignment-Marks f Sighting Guides/Scope Mounts g Battery door h Rubber Cover/Recharge Jack i 5/8” x 11 Tripod Mounts j Rubber Feet k Turnable Legs l Plus and Minus Battery Diagrams120432trimble_UL633_01_GB.indd 2 14.04.12 11:40

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Warning (part 15.21) Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. This in particular is applicable for the antenna which has been delivered with the UL633 and RC603 Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for succesful communication. 120432trimble_UL633_01_GB.indd 25 14.04.12 11:40
