1. Introduction The SKR300 is an automatic visible laser that can be used for levelling, vertical alignment, plumbing and squaring. The SKR300 laser has these advanced features: • Automatic self-levelling in both horizontal and vertical modes • Choice of beams: rotation plane, scanning, chalk line, single point or constant squaring •...

If the laser is disturbed, the head will stop rotating, laser beam shut off and the H.I. light will be solid on. You have to restart the instrument and check the reference. Works with 3 beams mode (Normal, Chalk Line, Scanning). Automatic / Manual Key Page 7 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)

Default mode when laser is switched on Man : Manual use. The SKR300 laser is always in the automatic self-levelling mode (auto) when turned on. Once the instrument has self-leveled, the laser head will start rotating. You can choose to have constant rotation by using the Manual mode. This way, the beam will rotate even if the instrument is not leveled.
2a. Horizontal Setup The SKR300 can be used directly on the ground or mount on a standard tripod (5/8-11). Press the On/Off key to switch the laser on. It will start automatic levelling. To stop the rotation, press once on opposite direction Left (14) or Right (15).
You can move the line by rotating the head manually or by using the remote control. Note : The LDR180 detector will not work with the chalk line Page 10 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)
(23) blink and then stay on. Recharge battery pack or replace both alkaline batteries at the same time. The SKR300 can be charged while working. If electricity is available on the job site, simply plug in the charger and keep on working.
The laser beam should be on and the head will turn and levelling motors will move to end of X,Y axis. The test will not stop until power off. ( Step 7) ( Step 9 ) Page 12 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)
3. Disassembly CAUTION: AVOID staring or looking directly into the laser light. SKR300 is a laser diode, class IIIR product. When adjusting, care must be taken to meet IIIR requirements. Following page is a flow chart showing the order of disassembling the SKR300, but before disassembling, take out the batteries.
Laying the upper housing aside. Be careful not c) Remove X / Y motor to damage all the cables and connectors d) Reverse steps c) – a) to place new motor Page 14 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)
Unplug all the connectors by using a tweezers / small flat screw driver to unlock the inter-lock of connectors d) Unlock and unplug keypad flat cable* e) Remove 3 screws (D20) to release PCB * NOTE : Twist the keypad flat cable a bit for easier plug back Page 15 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)

Hold the side of head mirror (A8) and pull upward to remove head mirror. Be careful not to touch the glass surface. c) Clean and apply small amount of SPG35SL to the o-ring before assemble the rotating head. Page 19 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)
Remove 3 screws (Item no. 15) to remove PCB f) Clean and apply small amount of SPG35SL on waterproof seal before cover the case back d) Reverse steps e) - a) to put back Page 22 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)
11. With X2 facing the marks, bring the laser beam Axis up or down to the center mark by using (2) or (3) (5) Save on the detector or remote. 12. Next, check Y axis. Page 23 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)
Press (14) on keypad or (5) on detector or (4) Change remote to save calibration data. If you don’t Axis wish to save the calibration, press the On / Off (5) Save key (24) on the laser. Page 24 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)

3. Project the line to a wall 10 meters away. 4. Check if the chalk line is within 5mm margin by rotating the laser head slowly. 5. Adjust the 3 screws to minimize the error. Page 25 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)
The laser is now calibrated in Z axis. Press (14) on laser or (5) on detector or remote to save the calibration data. If you don’t wish to save the calibration, press the On / Off key on the laser. Page 26 SKR300 (version 1-12-03)
