Operation

Initial Operation

f Protect the measuring tool against mois-

ture and direct sun irradiation.

f Do not expose the measuring tool to

extreme temperatures or variations in
temperature.

Switching On and Off

To switch on the measuring tool, briefly press
the On/Off button 14 or measuring button 10.
When switching on the measuring tool, the laser
beam is not switched on yet.

To switch off the measuring tool, press the
On/Off button 14 for a few seconds.

If none of the measuring tool buttons are
pressed for approx. 5 minutes, the measuring
tool switches off automatically in order to
extend the service life of the battery.

When a measured value has been stored, it is
retained in automatic switch-off mode. When
switching on the measuring tool again, “M” is
indicated in the display.

Measuring Procedure

After switching on, the measuring tool is in the
length measurement mode. Other measuring
modes can be switched to by pressing the re­spective function/mode button (see “Measuring
Functions”, page 22).

After switching on, the rear edge of the measur­ing tool is preset as the reference level for the
measurement. By pressing the reference level
button 1, the reference level can be changed
(see “Selecting the Reference Level”, page 21).

Upon selection of the measuring function and
the reference level, all further steps are carried
out by pushing the measuring button 10.

With the reference level selected, place the
measuring tool against the desired measuring
line (e.g. a wall).

Briefly press the measuring button 10 to switch
on the laser beam.

f Do not point the laser beam at persons or

animals and do not look into the laser beam
yourself, not even from a large distance.

Aim the laser beam at the target surface. Briefly
press the measuring button 10 again to initate
the measurement.

When the laser beam is switched on permanent­ly and in the minimum and maximum measure­ment modes, the measurement already starts
upon first actuation of the measuring button 10.
In the continuous measurement mode, the
measurement starts immediately upon switch­ing on the function.

Typically, the measured value appears after 0.5
and latest after 4 seconds. The duration of the
measurement depends on the distance, the light
conditions and the reflection properties of the
target surface. The end of the measurement is
indicated by a signal tone. The laser beam is
switched off automatically upon completion of
the measurement.

When no measurement has taken place approx.
20 seconds after sighting, the laser beam is
switched off automatically to save the batteries.

Selecting the Reference Level
(see figures B

For measuring, it is possible to select from four
different reference levels:

– the rear edge of the measuring tool

(e.g., when placing the measuring tool flush
against a wall),

– the rear edge of the positioning pin 15

(e.g., for measurements out of corners).

– the front edge of the measuring tool (e.g., as

when measuring from the edge of a table
onward),

– the thread 17 (e.g., for measuring with the

tripod).

To select the reference level, push button 1
repeatedly until the required reference level is
indicated in the display. Each time after switch­ing on, the rear edge of the measuring tool is
preset as the reference level.

Continuous Laser Beam

If required, the measuring tool can also be
switched to the continuous laser beam mode. For
this, push the button for continuous laser beam

13. “LASER” lights up continuously in the display.

f Do not point the laser beam at persons or

animals and do not look into the laser beam
yourself, not even from a large distance.

In this setting, the laser beam also remains
switched on between measurements; for meas­uring, it is only required to press the measuring
button 10 once.

To switch off the continuous laser beam, press
button 13 again or switch the measuring tool
off. When switching on again, the measuring
tool is in the standard operation mode and the
laser beam appears only after pushing the meas­uring button 10.

Measuring Functions

Length Measurement

For length measurements, press button 5 until
the indicator for length measurement appears
in the display.

Press the measuring but­ton 10 once for sighting
and once more to take the
measurement.

The measured value is indi­cated at the bottom in the
display.

Area Measurement

For area/surface measurements, press button 5
until the indicator for area measurement
appears in the display.

Afterwards, measure the length and the width,
one after another, in the same manner as a
length measurement. The laser beam remains
switched on between both measurements.

After taking the second
measurement, the area/
surface is automatically
calculated and displayed.
The last individual meas-

ured value is indicated at
the bottom in the display, while the final result
is shown at the top.

Volume Measurement

For volume measurements, press button 5 until
the indicator for volume measurement
appears in the display.

Afterwards, measure the length, width and the
height, one after another, in the same manner as
for a length measurement. The laser beam remains
switched on between all three measurements.

After taking the third meas­urement, the volume is au­tomatically calculated and
displayed. The last individ­ual measured value is indi­cated at the bottom in the
display, while the final re­sult is shown at the top.

Values above 99999 m

“Error” and “

––––” appear on the display. Di-

cannot be indicated;

vide the volume to be measured into individual
measurements; their values can then be calcu­lated separately and then summarized.

Minimum Measurement (see figure F)

The minimum measurement is used to deter­mine the shortest distance from a fixed refer­ence point. It is used, as an example, for deter­mining plumb lines or horizontal partitions.

For minimum measurements, press button 4
until “MIN” appears in the display.

To start the measurement, briefly press the
measuring button 10.

Move the laser back and forth over the request­ed target (e.g., the room ceiling for determining
the plumb line) in such a manner that the refer­ence point of the measurement (e.g., the tip of
the positioning pin 15) always remains at the
same location.

During the measurement,
the current length meas­urement value is indicated
at the bottom of the dis­play. The minimum value is

indicated at the top right in
the display. It is always overwritten, when the
current length measurement value is lower than
the present minimal value.

To end the minimum measurement, briefly press
the measuring button 10. Pressing the measur­ing button again starts a new measurement.

Maximum Measurement (see figure G)

The maximum measurement is used to deter­mine the greatest distance from a fixed refer­ence point. It is used, as an example, for deter­mining diagonals.

For maximum measurements, press button 4
until “MAX” appears in the display.

To start the measurement, briefly press the
measuring button 10.

Move the laser back and forth over the request­ed target (e.g., the room corner for determining
the diagonal) in such a manner that the refer­ence point of the measurement (e.g., the tip of
the positioning pin 15) always remains at the
same location.

During the measurement,
the current length meas­urement value is indicated
at the bottom of the dis­play. The minimum value is

indicated at the top right in
the display. It is always overwritten, when the
current length measurement value is larger than
the present maximal value.

To end the maximum measurement, briefly press
the measuring button 10. Pressing the measuring
button again starts a new measurement.

Indirect Length Measurement (see figure H)

The indirect length measurement is used to
measure distances that cannot be measured
directly because an obstacle would obstruct the
laser beam or no target surface is available as a
reflector. Correct results are achieved only when
the laser beam and the sought distance form an
exact right angle (Pythagorean Theorem).

In the illustrated example, the length B is to be
determined. For this purpose, A and C must be
measured. A and B must form a right angle.

For indirect length measurements, press button
11 until the indicator for indirect length measure­ment appears in the display.

Measure the distance A as for a length measure­ment. Pay attention that the line segement A
and the sought distance B form a right angle.
Afterwards, measure the distance C. The laser
beam remains switched on between both meas­urements.

Pay attention that the reference point of the
measurement (e.g., the rear edge of the measur­ing tool) is at the exact same location for both
measurements.

After completing the sec­ond measurement, the dis­tance B is calculated auto­matically. The last individual
measured value is indicated
at the bottom in the display,
while the final result B is in­dicated at the top.

Wall Surface Measurement (see figure I)

The wall surface measurement is used to deter­mine the sum of several individual surfaces with
a common length.

In the example shown, the total surface of sev­eral walls that have the same room height A

, but

different lengths B, are to be determined.
For wall surface measurements, press button 11

until the indicator for wall surface measurement

appears in the display.

Measure the room height A as for a length meas­urement. The measured value is indicated both
at the top and bottom in the display. The laser
remains switched on.

Afterwards, measure length

of the first wall. The sur-

B

1

face is automatically calcu­lated and indicated. The
last length measurement

value is indicated at the
bottom in the display, while the surface is indicat­ed at the top. The laser remains switched on.

Now, measure length B

2

of
the second wall. The indi­vidual measuring value in­dicated at the bottom of
the display is added to
length B

and the sum of

1

both lengths is multiplied with the stored length
A. The total surface value is indicated at the top
in the display.

In this manner, you can measure any number of
further lengths B

, which are added and multi-

X

plied with length A.

OBJ_BUCH-703-002.book Page 24 Wednesday, July 23, 2008 3:15 PM

24 | English

The condition for a correct area/surface calcu­lation is that the first measured length (in the
example the room height A) is identical for all
partial surfaces.

To restart the wall surface measurement, press
button 11 twice.

Continuous Measurement (Tracking)
(see figure J)

The continuous measurement function (track­ing) is used for the transferring of measure­ments, e.g., from construction plans. In contin­uous measurement mode, the measuring tool
can be moved relative to the target, whereby the
measured value is updated approx. every

0.5 seconds. As an example, the user can move
from a wall to the required distance, while the
actual distance can be read continuously.

For continuous measurements, first select the
length measuring function and then press button
10 until the indicator for continuous measure­ment appears on the display. The laser is
switched on and the measurement starts imme­diately.

Move the measuring tool
until the required distance
value is indicated in the
bottom of the display.

Briefly pressing button 10
ends the continuous meas­urement. The last meas-

ured value is indicated at the bottom in the dis­play. Pressing button 10 for several seconds
restarts a continuous measuring run.

The continuous measuring automatically switch­es off after 5 min. The last measured value re­mains indicated in the display.

Deleting Measured Values

Briefly pressing button 14 deletes the last indi­vidual measuring value determined in all meas­uring functions. Briefly pressing the button re­peatedly deletes the individual measured values
in reverse order.

In the wall surface measurement mode, briefly
pressing button 14 the first time deletes the last
individually measured value; pressing the button
a second time deletes all lengths B

.

Memory Functions

When switching off the measuring tool, the value
in the memory is retained.

In the wall surface measurement mode, the total
surface value can be stored; in the minimum and
maximum measuring mode, the minimum and
maximum value can be stored correspondingly.
Storing individual measuring values within these
functions is not possible.

Storing/Adding Measured Values

Push the memory add but­ton 3 in order to store the
current measured value –
a length, area or volume
value, depending on the

As soon as a value has been stored, “M” is in­dicated in the display and the “+” behind it briefly
flashes.

If a value is already stored in the memory, the new
value is added to the memory contents, however,
only when the measures of unit correspond.

As an example, when an area value is in the
memory and the current measured value is a
volume value, the addition cannot take place.

“Error” briefly flashes in the display.
Subtracting Measured Values

Push the memory subtraction button 12 in order
to subtract the current measured value from the
memory value. As soon as a value has been sub­tracted, “M” is indicated in the display and the

Working Advice

General Information
The reception lens 22 and the laser beam outlet

21 must not be covered when taking a measure-

ment.
The measuring tool must not be moved while

taking a measurement (with the exception of
the continuous measurement function and the
minimum/maximum measurement). Therefore,
place the measuring tool, as far as this is possi­ble, against or on the measuring points.

Measurement takes place at the centre of the la­ser beam, even when target surfaces are sighted
at an incline.

Influence Effects on the Measuring Range

The measuring range depends upon the light
conditions and the reflection properties of the
target surface. For improved visibility of the
laser beam when working outdoors and when
the sunlight is intense, use the laser viewing
glasses 24 (accessory) and the laser target plate

25 (accessory), or shade off the target surface.

Influence Effects on the Measuring Result

Due to physical effects, faulty measurements
cannot be excluded when measuring on differ­ent surfaces. Included here are:

– Transparent surfaces (e.g., glass, water),
– Reflecting surfaces (e.g., polished metal,

glass),
– Porous surfaces (e.g. insulation materials),
– Structured surfaces (e.g., roughcast, natural

stone).
If required, use the laser target plate 25 (acces-

sory) on these surfaces.
Also, air layers with varying temperatures or

indirectly received reflections can affect the
measured value.

Measuring with the Positioning Pin
(see figures C, F and G)

The positioning pin 15 is suitable for measuring
out of corners (diagonal within a space) or from
hard to reach areas, such as from roller-shutter
rails.

Slide the latch 16 of the positioning pin side­ward in order to swivel out the pin.

Set the corresponding reference level for meas­urements with the positioning pin by pushing
button 1.

The positioning pin 15 swivels back in again by
pushing it toward the housing to the stop. The
pin automatically locks in place.

Aligning with the Spirit Level

The spirit level 6 allows for simple levelling of the
measuring tool. This allows for easier sighting of
target surfaces, especially over longer distances.

In combination with the laser beam, the spirit
level 6 is not suitable for levelling.

Sighting with the Alingment Aid (see figure K)

With the alignment aid 8, sighting over larger dis­tances is a lot easier. For this, look alongside the
aligning aid on the top side of the measuring tool.
The laser beam runs parallel to this line of sight.

Working with the Tripod (Accessory)

The use of a tripod is particularly necessary for
larger distances. Position the measuring tool
with the 1/4" thread 17 onto the quick-change
plate of the tripod

23 or a commercially available

camera tripod. Tighten the measuring tool with
the locking screw of the quick-change plate.

Set the corresponding reference level for meas­urement with a tripod by pushing button 1 (the
reference level is the thread).

The target surface reflects
too intensely (e.g. a mir­ror) or insufficiently (e.g.
black fabric), or the ambi­ent light is too bright.

The laser beam outlet 21

The measuring tool monitors the
correct function for each meas­urement. When a defect is deter­mined, only the symbol shown
aside flashes in the display. In this

case, or when the above men­tioned corrective measures cannot correct an
error, have the measuring tool checked by an
after-sales service agent for Bosch power tools.

Accuracy Check of the Measuring Tool

The accuracy of the measuring tool can be
checked as follows:

– Select a permanently unchangeable measur-

ing section with a length of approx. 3 to
10 metres; its length must be precisely
known (e.g. the width of a room or a door
opening). The measuring distance must be
indoors; the target surface for the measure­ment must be smooth and reflect well.

– Measure the distance 10 times after another.
The measuring error must not amount to more

than a maximum of

± 2.0 mm. Keep a record of

the measurements in order to compare the ac­curacy at a later time.
