Leica Lino L360 - Perfectly Level All Around



The Leica Lino L360 is the perfect tool for the tradesman. Whether for laying floors or bonding edging, for all interior and exterior levelling and aligning tasks, the line laser projects an exact horizontal laser line all round.

The Leica Lino L360 is therefore an ideal addition to the line and dot lasers of the Leica Lino series.

Continuous and exact 360° laser lines
The Leica Lino L360 projects a laser line all round with millimetre accuracy. Reference points and lines can thus be quickly transferred from one wall to another without having to rotate the instrument. That is a crucial advantage when creating height reference points.

Furthermore, the horizontal laser line can be projected very closely to the ground. This particularly simplifies laying floor coverings and controlling heights. Moreover, the Leica Lino L360 provides an additional 180° vertical laser line for further possible uses.



Self-levelling with simple user interface
The Leica Lino L360 can be set up easily and quickly. The user interface with only two keys is self-explanatory. Thanks to the self-levelling, minor inclinations are automatically compensated for. Where greater tilting occurs, the laser lines blink to indicate that the self-levelling function is no longer active.

The self-levelling function can also be switched off manually using the lock function. On the one hand this serves as transport protection and on the other allows the laser lines to be projected in any position.



Rugged line laser, long battery life, matched accessories
The Leica Lino L360 is a rugged instrument with protection class IP65, i.e. it is dust proof and protected against hose water. So when working on site, the instruments will not be effected by environmental dust or water.

Rechargeable Battery Pack
Thanks to the rechargeable battery pack, its lengthy operating time of up to 20 hours is also a convincing argument.

Points to consider when purchasing a cross line laser


When purchasing a line laser, consider quality of the laser beam, the accuracy and how wide the beam is projected.


Beam Quality
The quality of the laser beam should play an important role in deciding which line laser to purchase. A high quality line laser will provide a crisp beam throughout the line. Whilst a cheap alternative will provide a thicker, more defused laser line. The Leica Lino L2+ incorporates a very high quality laser beam which projects the best laser line of its class. This award winning laser has been designed to project a very crisp line throughout the beams divergence.

Fan of the Beam
The laser line is projected from the laser diode and out through the lens. The angle of the laser line or fan is determined by position of the diodes and quality of the lens. Most line lasers can only project a beam less than 120 degrees with the lens defusing the extreme edges of the beam.

To improve the beams angle, manufactures have adjusted the diodes' position closer to the front of the instrument. This improves the fan of the laser line, but the lens will have no protection against damage and scratches. Leica Geosystems redesigned the Leica Lino L2+ body to allow the diodes to project a wide 180 degree laser line whilst positioning the optics away from the front of the instrument to protect against damage.

Leica are renown for their quality, so it should not be any surprise to see high quality optics integrated into the design of the Leica Lino L2+. This reduces diffusion of the laser line, providing a very crisp laser.

Accuracy of the Laser
The accuracy will determine how level the laser projects the beam. Any item set-out to this laser line will either be level or not depending on the accuracy of the laser. The Leica Lino L2+ provides the highest accuracy of any line laser both in horizontal and vertical plans.

The Leica Power Range Technology provides excellent line visibility even at larger distances. The Leica Lino L2+ automatically compensates for minor alignment errors in the range of +/-4°. During this process the instrument is aligned to mm accuracy. If the automatic self-leveling range is exceeded, the laser automatically signals that the instrument is out of levelling range. Expensive measuring errors are prevented.

An example of use
When setting out tiles for a wall, it will be very noticeable of the tilts are not truly horizontal, or vertical. A line laser will set-out the initial horizontal and vertical line, allowing the contractor to lay the first tile, with subsequent tiles following the laser lines.

For larger areas the contractor will move the instrument further away to project a wider laser line. If the beam of the laser is of a low quality, the laser line on the wall will become defused. Likewise the accuracy of the laser will further compound the problem, projecting a beam that is not truly horizontal.

The Leica Lino L2+ features a very high quality laser beam, projecting a crisp line through the 180 degree fan. This allows the laser to project a wider beam at close range, ideal for small or large projects. The very high accuracy of the beam ensures that the laser is truly horizontal. If the laser is moved back, the combination of beam, optics and accuracy will not hinder the contractor.

Leica Roteo 35G - 400% More Visible



When undertaking levelling tasks over a large area, the beam of a red laser can be hard to see and will commonly require a detector eye to find the beam.

Alternatively a green beam laser level operates through a higher light range and is four times more visible to the human eye. With green beam laser levels, the laser beam provides better visibility in very bright conditions and over long distances.


Leica Geosystems have recently launched an enhanced interior laser level, the Leica Roteo 35G ‘Green Beam’. Providing all the characteristics of the very popular Leica Roteo 35, the new green beam option is the preferred choice for interior levelling tasks over long distances.

All-round perfection in every condition
On ceilings or walls, on the floor or on a tripod, the Leica Roteo 35G rotating laser is a multitalented performer. You can use it to work precisely on many indoor tasks in which levelling or aligning is required in very bright conditions and over very long distances.


400% More visibile
The pioneering green laser beam is four times more visible to the human eye. So you have the best possible visibility.






Installing ceilings and wallsWith its motorized wall mount, the Leica Roteo 35G can be positioned on the wall and moved effortless backwards and forwards using the combined remote control/detector unit, allowing you to quickly suspend ceilings and erect drywalls.

Marking out right angles
The Leica Roteo 35G is also a great help in the vertical plane. The combination of a vertical 360° reference plane and plumb beam simplifies layout, allowing you to work more accurately and efficiently on interior works.

Very VersatileThe integrated motorised wall mount, bright visible beam, horizontal and vertical lines or an exact 90° angle – it is no problem for the Leica Roteo 35. The rotating laser can automatically self-level for inclined set-ups of up to ± 4.5°. Scanning mode makes work easier by improving visibility in bright lighting conditions.

Motorised Wall MountThe Leica Roteo 35 laser level features a motorised wall mount, allowing for the instrument to move easily up and down when attached to the wall for ceiling grid installations. All operations can be controlled from the remote control and RRC350 laser detector eye.

HI AlertThe instruments H.I. (height of instrument) Alert system will sound an alarm if the laser is disturbed, stopping the head from rotating to prevent inaccurate readings.
