It’s for the magnetic clamp

 

[Waluigi]

No, I meant the cutout on the left of the pic, not the space where the magnetic clamp is which is the far left

For the laser detector clamp and the square bit above for the unit

Thanks, I’ve no idea what that is?

I was hoping it was something that would adjust the laser up and down.

You make a big deal out of that . I've seen it on Bosch lasers but I really don't see it as an issue , i have no problem adjusting the height of my laser in tiny amounts .

 

[Waluigi]

I think it’s an excellent feature. I was surprised that the Dewalt doesn’t have something similar. I used to use it a lot on my Bosch

I say tiny amounts, it’s maybe 100mm up and down.

What do you use to adjust yours?

I used to bang a nail/screw in the wall and attach the clamp to it.

I put my laser on a pole and push it up and down with my thumb. I can easily put in a 2mm grout joint between 2 rows of tiles.

Saw the other week someone had screwed a handsaw to a wall and just used the magnetic bracket on the laser...ingenious, I thought so anyway

That’s what I need to get- a pole.

Will probably try the zero budget handsaw technique first

If mine had a decent magnet on the back that is what I would do .
