Hazards in use
CAUTION:
Watch out for erroneous distance measurements if the instrument is defective or if it has been dropped or has been misused or modified.
Precautions:
Carry out periodic test measurements. Particularly after the instrument has been subject to abnormal use, and before, during and after important measurements.
Make sure the Leica DISTO™ optics is kept clean and that there is no mechanical damage to the bumpers.
