Safety Information
A Warning identifies hazardous conditions and
procedures that are dangerous to the user.
W* Warning
To prevent eye damage and personal injury:
• Read all safety information before you use the
Product.
• Carefully read all instructions.
• Use the Product only as specified, or the
protection supplied by the Product can be
compromised.
• Do not use the Product around explosive gas,
vapor, or in damp or wet environments.
• Do not use the Product if it operates incorrectly.
• Do not use the Product if it is damaged.
• Disable the Product if it is damaged.
• Do not look into the laser. Do not point the laser
directly at persons or animals or indirectly off
reflective surfaces.
• Do not look directly into the laser with optical
tools (for example, binoculars, telescopes,
microscopes). Optical tools can focus the laser
and be dangerous to the eye.
• Do not open the Product. The laser beam is
dangerous to eyes. Have the Product repaired
only through an approved technical site.
• Remove the batteries if the Product is not used
for an extended period of time, or if stored in
temperatures above 50 °C. If the batteries are not
removed, battery leakage can damage the
Product.
• Replace the batteries when the low battery
indicator shows to prevent incorrect
measurements.

Before You Start
Before You Start
This section has basic information about the batteries and
measurement reference point. It also describes the Meter
keypad and display.
Batteries
Replace the batteries when blinks in the display.
To install or replace the batteries:
1. Remove battery compartment lid. See Figure 1.
2. Attach the handstrap.
3. Install two AAA (LR03) batteries with the correct

Multifunctional Endpiece
The 419D and 424D Meters adapt to multiple
measurement situations with the multifunctional endpiece.
See Figure 2:
• For measurements from an edge, fold out the
endpiece (90 °) until it locks into place. See Figure 3.
• For measurements from a corner, fold out the
endpiece (90 °) until it locks into place. Push the
endpiece lightly to the right side to fold it out fully. See
Figures 2 and 4.
• A built-in sensor automatically senses the orientation
of the endpiece and adjusts the zero point.
