*Important: Under unfavorable conditions, such as in bright sunlight or when measuring poorly
reflecting or very rough surfaces, the tool’s measuring range and accuracy will be reduced. In
such circumstances, please use a reflector (available separately) when taking measurements.
The reflector is a target to be used with the Laser Distance Finder/Measuring Tool to increase
the intensity of the reflected light.

SAFETY GUIDELINES
WARNING!
Safety symbols in this Instruction Manual are used to flag possible dangers. The
safety symbols and their explanations require your full understanding. The safety
warnings do not, by themselves, eliminate any danger, nor are they substitutes for
proper accident prevention measures.
WARNING!
This Safety Alert Symbol indicates caution, warning, or danger. Failure to obey a
safety warning can result in serious injury to yourself or others. To reduce the risk of
injury, fire, or electric shock, always follow the safety precautions.
Become familiar with the Laser distance finder/measuring tool
Before using this Laser Distance Finder/Measuring Tool, read this Instruction Manual carefully.
Keep this Manual in a safe place for future reference.
Important
This device should only be serviced by a qualified service technician. For more information, call
the toll-free helpline at 1-800-689-9928.
Read all instructions thoroughly
Save these instructions
CAUTION!
Do not attempt to use this laser distance finder/measuring tool until you have
read all instructions, safety rules, and warnings carefully and thoroughly. Keep this
Instruction Manual and review it frequently for reference.
WARNING!
Be sure to read and understand all instructions in this manual before using this
product. Failure to follow all instructions may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
WARNING!
Laser radiation. Do not stare into the beam. Turn the laser beam on only when
using this tool.
CAUTION!
Do not attempt to modify the performance of the laser device in any way. This may
result in a dangerous exposure to laser radiation.
WARNING!
Use of controls, adjustments, or the performance of procedures other than those
specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
WARNING!
The use of optical instruments, such as, but not limited to, telescopes or transits to
view the laser beam will increase eye hazard.
This laser distance finder/measuring tool has a built-in laser light. The laser is a Class II and emits
output power of a maximum 1 mW and 620-690 nm wavelengths. These lasers do not normally
present an optical hazard. However, do not stare at the beam, as this can cause flash blindness.
The following label is on your laser distance finder/
measuring tool. It indicates the location from which
the laser distance finder/measuring tool emits
the laser light. Be aware of the laser light location
when using the tool. Always make sure that any by
standers in the vicinity of use are made aware of the
dangers of looking directly into the laser.
• Do not remove or deface any product labels.
• Avoid direct eye exposure. The laser beam can
cause flash blindness.
• The laser tool is not a toy. Always keep it out of the reach of children. The laser light emitted
from this device should never be directed toward any person for any reason.
• Do not operate the tool around children or allow children to operate the tool.
• Do not place the tool in a position that may cause anyone to stare at the laser beam, whether
intentionally or unintentionally.
• Do not use on surfaces such as sheet steel that have shiny, reflective surfaces. The reflective
surface could reflect the beam back at the operator.
• Always turn the laser tool off when not in use. Leaving the tool on increases the risk of
someone inadvertently staring into the laser beam.

• Do not attempt to modify the performance of this laser device in any way. This may result in
a dangerous exposure to laser radiation.
• Do not attempt to repair or disassemble the laser distance finder/measuring tool. If
unqualified persons attempt to repair this product, serious injury may occur. Any repair
required on this laser product should be performed only by qualified service personnel.
• Do not operate the tool in combustible areas, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust.
• Use of other accessories that have been designed for use with other laser tools could result
in serious injury.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children.
• Do not direct the laser distance finder/measuring tool towards the sun or other sources of
bright light. This may cause an Error reading or inaccurate measurements.
• Do not use the laser distance finder/measuring tool as a leveling tool.
• Do not operate the laser tool in wet, dusty, sandy, or other adverse environments. Such
conditions may damage inner components and affect measuring accuracy.
• When the laser distance finder/measuring tool is brought into a warm environment from very
cold conditions, or vice versa, allow it to come to the surrounding temperature before use.
• Measuring errors can occur when measuring toward colorless liquids (e.g., water), clean
glass, Styrofoam, or similar translucent or low-density materials.
• High-gloss surfaces will deflect the laser beam and result in Error measurements.
• Very bright surroundings combined with a very low reflecting surface will reduce the
measuring range and accuracy.
• Do not immerse the tool in water. Wipe off dirt with a damp, soft cloth. Do not use aggressive
cleaning agents or solutions. Treat the optical surfaces with the same care that you would
apply to eye glasses or cameras.
• The accuracy of the tool must be checked before use after it has been dropped or subjected
to other mechanical stresses.
