Upgrade Your Grade Control System with the Leica LMR360R
The Leica LMR360R is a professional-grade wireless machine receiver designed for contractors who need reliable, accurate laser grade detection without purchasing a full system package. Whether you're expanding a multi-machine fleet or replacing a worn receiver on an existing Leica laser control setup, the LMR360R delivers consistent 360-degree laser detection in a rugged, jobsite-ready housing. Paired with NiMH rechargeable batteries, this receiver is built for full-day operation on active construction sites.
Overview & Jobsite Applications
The LMR360R integrates seamlessly into Leica's wireless machine control ecosystem, receiving laser plane signals from compatible rotating laser transmitters and communicating grade corrections to the machine's control box. Its omnidirectional detection means operators don't need to reorient the mast when equipment pivots or travels laterally across a grade. From fine grading on road base to bulk earthmoving cuts on site development projects, the LMR360R keeps your blade or bucket on grade without constant manual adjustments.
Key Specifications
- Model: LMR360R (Part No. 6009892)
- Detection Angle: 360 degrees — full omnidirectional laser reception
- Wireless Communication: Integrated wireless module for remote grade display and control box connectivity
- Power Source: NiMH rechargeable battery pack included
- Operating Temperature: Rated for wide-range jobsite temperature extremes
- Housing: Impact-resistant, sealed construction for dust and moisture protection
- Mounting: Compatible with standard Leica mast and bracket systems
- Package Contents: Receiver unit and NiMH batteries (receiver only — no remote display included)
Key Features
- 360-degree laser detection maintains continuous grade reference as equipment rotates or travels laterally — no mast repositioning required
- Wireless grade communication eliminates cable runs between receiver and cab-mounted control box, reducing failure points and setup time NiMH battery system supports full-shift runtime with lower self-discharge than standard alkaline packs
- Receiver-only configuration makes this the cost-effective choice for fleet standardization or system upgrades without redundant components
- Robust sealed housing resists dust, vibration, and moisture common on active grading and earthmoving sites
- Leica ecosystem compatibility ensures plug-and-play integration with existing Leica rotating lasers and machine control hardware
Job Applications
Road Base & Subgrade Preparation: Maintain tight tolerances on compacted base layers for asphalt or concrete paving projects where grade consistency directly impacts material usage and ride quality.
Site Development Earthmoving: Guide dozers and motor graders through bulk cut-and-fill operations, reducing survey check frequency and keeping machines productive across large sites.
Drainage & Utility Trench Grading: Set precise slope gradients for storm drainage channels, retention ponds, and utility corridors where flow direction is critical.
Parking Lot & Commercial Flatwork: Achieve consistent cross-slope and drainage grades on commercial paving and flatwork projects with minimal staking and re-checking.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Does the LMR360R include a remote display or control box?
- No. The LMR360R is a receiver-only unit. It is designed for contractors who already own a compatible Leica control box or remote display and need to add or replace only the mast-mounted receiver component. This makes it a cost-effective option for fleet expansion or component replacement.
- What lasers is the Leica LMR360R compatible with?
- The LMR360R is engineered to work within Leica's machine control ecosystem and is compatible with Leica rotating laser transmitters that operate on the corresponding frequency and wireless protocol. Contact Express Tools or refer to Leica's compatibility documentation to confirm pairing with your specific laser model before purchasing.
- Is the LMR360R suitable for use on excavators as well as graders and dozers?
- The LMR360R is primarily designed for grade-setting applications on equipment such as motor graders, bulldozers, and scrapers where a horizontal laser plane reference is used. For excavator depth control, a different sensor and system configuration is typically required. Consult your dealer for excavator-specific machine control solutions.
- What is included in the box with the Leica LMR360R (6009892)?
- The 6009892 package includes the LMR360R wireless machine receiver unit and NiMH rechargeable batteries. No remote display, control box, mast, or laser transmitter is included.
