MeasureTech™
The Ryobi Electronic
a fast, convenient distance measure, or with a laser
pointer which shows exactly the location where the
measurement will be taken. It features a sleek,
high-impact case.
For damage caused by usage other than intended,
the user is responsible.
VERIFYING IF THE UNIT WORKS
• After battery is installed,press the “READ”
button. If numbers appear on the LCD display,
then the unit is working properly.

FEATURES
• Instant measurement
• Dynamic measurement capability of 50 feet
(15 meters)
• Selective measurement reference: top or bottom
of the case
• Computation of area and volume
• 5 digit LCD for easy read screen
• Built in laser pointer
• Conversion ft-in to metric
MEASUREMENT REFERENCE
• Press “SET” button to select measurement
base: top or bottom of case.
•To change from feet to meters, or vice versa,
press the “set” and “X/=” button simultaneously.
NOTE:
The
MeasureTech™
measurement unit is
defaulted in ft-in.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES
• Select the measurement reference.
• Point the unit perpendicular to the target. The
laser will show where the estimator is pointed
and is on only while a reading is being taken.
Caution: Do not stare into Laser beam. Hold
unit with beam above or below eye level.
• Press the “READ” button to take the measurement.
• Hold the “READ” button for continuous
measurement.
Finding square footage/meters and
cubic footage meters
• After taking initial measurement, press the “X/=”
key. Take the second measurement and again
press the “X/=’’ key. LCD display will show
“SQ.M”. Take a third measurement and again
press “X/=” key. LCD display will show “cu.ft”. or
“cu.m”.

HINTS
• Any large obstacle found within + 5° for the viewing angle of the unit might be regarded as the
target.
• Large, flat, hard surfaces usually give more
accurate results.
•To measure small, irregular or soft objects, place
a piece of cardboard in front of the object.
• Change of measurement base does not affect old
readings.
• The unit cannot measure through glass.
ERROR DISPLAY
The unit will give inaccurate readings if:
• The battery runs out of power
• The distance to be measured is less than 2’
(0.6m) or
• There is another ultrasonic source in the vicinity.
• “ERROR” will be displayed if the reflected
ultrasonic pulses are not strong enough.
This may happen when:
-The measuring distance is out of working range.
-The target is not a good ultrasonic reflector
(e.g. thick carpet, irregular wall paper, etc.)
-The unit of the multiplication result is higher than
cube.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY
• Slide back of unit off to replace battery.
• Snap 9-V battery into compartment, terminal side
first, matching (+) and (-) terminals from battery to
case.
• Replace the back by sliding into grooves. Alkaline
battery life is approximately 7000 measurements.
• The battery should be replaced when battery
indicator is on.

(*)For measuring long distance from 40 ft
to 50 ft (2m to 15m), the relative humidity
should be 50% or above and target size
should be at least 10 ft. by 10 ft (3m by
3m).
Situations Possible Causes Solutions
Inaccurate readings
of distance
• Battery runs out of power
• Measured distance is < 2’ or > 50’
(< 0.6m or > 15m).
• Another ultrasonic source is nearby
LCD displays “Error”
• Measured distance is < 2’ or > 50’
(< 0.6m or > 15m).
The target is not a good ultrasonic
reflector. (e.g. thick carpet, irregular
wallpaper, etc.).
• The unit points to the target ob-
liquely.
• Computation is out of the specified
range.
WARNING: To avoid risk of eye injury, do not stare directly into beam. Never point the beam into anyone’s
eyes. Do not permit children to use this device. It is not a toy.
• Replace new battery
• Make sure measured distance is within range
• Remove the ultrasonic source and try again.
• Make sure mearured distance is within range.
• Place a piece of cardboard in front of target.
• Make sure computation is within range.
