Do not subject the measuring tool to extreme temperatures
or variations in temperature. As an example, do not leave

it in vehicles for longer periods. In case of large variations in
temperature, allow the measuring tool to adjust to the ambient
temperature before putting it into operation.

General Safety Rules

Caution!

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
AND INCLUDE THEM WITH THE MEASURING TOOL WHEN
GIVING IT TO A THIRD PARTY.

All instructions must be read and observed in order to work safely
with the measuring tool. Never make warning signs on the
measuring tool unrecognizable.

The use of other operating or adjusting equipment or the
application of other processing methods than those mentioned here
can lead to dangerous radiation exposure.

APPLICATIONS

DESCRIPTION

SPECIFICATIONS

Using alkaline batteries is recommended for operation of the
measuring tool.

The safe use of this product requires an understanding of the
information on the tool and in this instruction manual, as well
as knowledge of the project you are attempting.
Before use of this product, familiarize yourself with all
operating features and safety rules.

OPERATION

The measuring tool is provided with a warning label.

If the text of the warning label is not in your national language,
stick the provided warning label in your national language over
it before operating for the first time.

Do not operate the measuring tool in explosive
environments, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dusts. Sparks can be created in the

measuring tool which may ignite the dust or fumes.

If laser radiation strikes your eye, you must deliberately close
your eyes and immediately turn your head away from the
beam.

The measuring tool is intended for determining and checking
horizontal and vertical lines.

The measuring tool is suitable exclusively for operation in
enclosed working sites.

Do not allow children to use the laser measuring tool
without supervision. They could unintentionally blind other

persons or themselves.

Do not use the laser viewing glasses as safety goggles or
in traffic. The laser viewing glasses are used for improved

visualisation of the laser beam, but they do not protect against
laser radiation.

Have the measuring tool repaired only through qualified
specialists using original spare parts. This ensures that the

safety of the measuring tool is maintained.

Do not make any modifications to the laser equipment.

Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals
and do not stare into the direct or reflected laser
beam yourself, not even from a distance. You could
blind somebody, cause accidents or damage your
eyes.

1. Press the latch of the battery lid (4) to open the battery cover.

2. Insert 2pcs new battery according to the polarity indicators in
the battery compartment. Be sure the polarity (+/-) is correct.

3. Close the battery lid and lock it securely in place.

When inserting, pay attention to the correct polarity according
to the representation on the inside of the battery compartment.

Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use
different brands or types of batteries together.

Do not leave the switched-on measuring tool unattended
and switch the measuring tool off after use. Other persons

could be blinded by the laser beam.

Protect the measuring tool against moisture and direct
sun light.

Remove the batteries/rechargeable batteries from the
measuring tool when not using it for longer periods.

When storing for longer periods, the batteries can corrode and
self-discharge.

Always turn off the tool before installing or replacing the
batteries.

SWITCHING ON AND OFF (Fig. 1)

WORKING WITH TRIPOD (Fig. 2)

HOLDING LATERALLY AGAINST A WALL OR OBJECT
(Fig. 3)

The use of a tripod (available separately) is particularly helpful
for greater distances. The laser distance measure can be
screwed onto a commercially available tripod using the 1/4”
thread on the bottom side of the housing.

Place the measuring tool via the tripod mount (7) on to the 1/4"
male thread of the tripod and screw the locking screw of the
tripod tight.

WARNING!

When turning the laser on, always be aware of

protecting your eyes and the eyes of those around you. Never
point the laser light at anyone’s face, including your own.

This laser distance measure has been designed to be a
low-maintenance tool. However, in order to maintain its
performance, you must always follow these simple directions.

1. Always handle the tool with care. Treat it as an optical device,
such as a camera or binoculars.

2. Avoid exposing the tool to shock, continuous vibration or
extreme hot or cold temperature.

3. Always store the tool indoors. When not in use, ALWAYS store
the tool in its protective case.

4. Always Keep the tool free of dust and liquids. Use only a clean,
soft cloth for cleaning. If necessary, slightly moisten the cloths
with pure alcohol or a little water.

5. Do not touch the lens with your fingers.

6. Check the batteries regularly to avoid deterioration. ALWAYS
remove the batteries from the tool, if it is not going to be used
for an extended period of time.

7. Replace the batteries when the battery icon is continuously
empty displayed on the LCD.

8. Do not disassemble the laser measuring tool; this will expose
the user to hazardous radiation exposure.

9. Do not attempt to change any part of the laser lens.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

MAINTENANCE

For quick checking of heights, the measuring tool can be held
by the contact surfaces (6) laterally against a vertical wall,
cabinets, etc. Take care to hold the measuring tool straightly and
calmly.

WORKING ADVICE

INFLUENCE EFFECTS ON THE WORKING RANGE

The working 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 (accessory) and the
laser target plate (accessory), or shade off the target surface.

Avoid heavy impact to or falling down of the measuring
tool. After severe exterior effects to the measuring tool, it is

recommended to carry out an accuracy check each time
before continuing to work.

To switch on the measuring tool, push the on/off switch (3) up.

To switch off, slide the on/off switch down.

SELF LEVELING

1. Place the self-leveling cross-line laser level on a flat, smooth
surface that is within ±4° of horizontal.

2. Turn the tool on by sliding the on/off switch to the up position.
The self-leveling cross-line laser level will automatically level
within 5 seconds. The automatic leveling (2) indicator will turn
to green.

3. If the self-leveling cross-laser is placed on surfaces out of the
leveling range, the automatic leveling indicator will turn to red
and the laser line will blink.
