Bosch Cross Line Laser Advancedlevel 360 Set - Green Laser Technology
The Bosch AdvancedLevel 360 is an all-rounder for precise alignment, squaring, and transferring. I...The Bosch AdvancedLevel 360 is an all-rounder for precise alignment, squaring, and transferring. It projects a 360° horizontal line and two vertical lines, along with a bottom plumb point, providing all relevant references for efficient work. Featuring green laser technology, it offers up to four times better visibility compared to red laser lines, even in bright lighting conditions. The accuracy of +/- 0.4 mm/m ensures precise working results, and the wide opening angle of 120° allows for long laser lines even at short working distances. The tool is self-levelling within ± 4 degrees and includes a slope mode for diagonal lines. It comes with a TT 150 tripod, a soft storage bag, and 4 x 1.5V LR6 (AA) batteries. Its user-friendly design includes a sliding on/off switch and a two-button keypad for one-handed control.
The Bosch AdvancedLevel 360 is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals alike who require precise alignment, squaring, and transferring of points and lines. Its key benefit is the highly visible green 360° horizontal line combined with two vertical lines and a bottom plumb point, simplifying complex layout tasks in any lighting condition. A minor caveat is its self-levelling range, which is limited to ± 4 degrees, requiring manual adjustment for steeper slopes. This tool offers a comprehensive solution for accurate measurements and layouts with its user-friendly design and included accessories.

FAQs
What is the maximum range of the Bosch AdvancedLevel 360?
The maximum range of the Bosch AdvancedLevel 360 is 24 meters. For longer distances, a laser receiver can be used (sold separately).
How do I switch between different laser line modes?
The tool features a simple two-button keypad for operation. Typically, one button controls power and cycling through horizontal/vertical line combinations, while the other might activate slope mode.
Is the tripod always necessary for use?
While the included tripod offers stability and versatile positioning, the laser level can be placed on a stable, flat surface if preferred, provided it's within its self-levelling range.
Can I use this laser level for outdoor projects?
Yes, the green laser technology offers improved visibility in daylight, making it suitable for some outdoor tasks. However, for extensive outdoor work or very bright conditions, a laser receiver is recommended.
What is the accuracy of the laser lines?
The levelling accuracy is ± 0.4 mm/m, ensuring precise results for critical alignment and squaring tasks.
How long do the batteries last?
Battery life depends on usage, but the tool is designed for efficient power consumption. The included AA batteries provide a good starting point for typical use.
What is the purpose of the slope mode?
Slope mode allows you to lock the laser in a tilted position, enabling the projection of diagonal lines for tasks like installing stair railings or slopes.
Troubleshooting
Laser lines are not appearing.
Ensure the batteries are correctly inserted and fully charged or replaced. Check that the sliding on/off switch is in the 'on' position.
Laser lines are crooked or not level.
Verify that the device is placed on a stable surface. If the tilt exceeds the ± 4° self-levelling range, the unit will flash. Move it to a less inclined surface or use the slope mode for manual alignment.
Poor visibility of laser lines.
Ensure the laser aperture is clean. For very bright sunlight, consider using a laser receiver (sold separately) or working during less intense light conditions.
Laser drifts or is inaccurate.
Check the levelling accuracy specification (± 0.4 mm/m). Ensure the self-levelling mechanism is not obstructed and that the tool is used within its specified temperature range.
