Only use the device if sufficient safety precautions were taken at the surveyed location (e.g. when performing measurements along public roads, on building sites etc.). Otherwise do not use the device.
Observe the storage and operating conditions as given in the Technical data chapter.

Intended use

Only use the laser distance measuring device BD11 for measuring distances, areas and volumes by means of the integrated laser and within the measuring range specified in the technical data. Observe and comply with the technical data.
To use the device for its intended use, only use accessories and spare parts which have been approved by Trotec.

Improper use

Do not use the laser distance measuring device BD11 in potentially explosive atmospheres or for measurements in liquids. Never point it at people or animals. Trotec accepts no liability for damages resulting from improper use. In such a case, any warranty claims will be voided.
Any unauthorised modifications, alterations or structural changes to the device are forbidden.

Personnel qualifications

People who use this device must:
be aware of the dangers that occur when working with laser measuring devices.
have read and understood the operating manual, especially the Safety chapter.

Residual risks

Warning of electrical voltage
There is a risk of a short-circuit due to liquids penetrating the housing! Do not immerse the device and the accessories in water. Make sure that no water or other liquids can enter the housing.
Warning of electrical voltage
Work on the electrical components must only be carried out by an authorised specialist company!
Warning of explosive substances
Do not expose the battery to temperatures above 45 °C! Do not let the battery come into contact with water or fire! Avoid direct sunlight and moisture. There is a risk of explosion!
Warning of laser radiation Laser class2, Pmax.: <1mW, λ: 650nm,
EN60825-1:2014
Do not look directly into the laser beam or the opening from which it emerges. Never point the laser beam at people, animals or reflective surfaces. Even brief eye contact can lead to eye damage. Examining the laser output aperture by use of optical instruments (e.g. magnifying glass, magnifiers and the like) entails the risk of eye damage. When working with a laser of class2, observe the national regulations on wearing eye protection.
Warning
Risk of suffocation! Do not leave the packaging lying around. Children may use it as a dangerous toy.
Warning

Device description

The laser distance measuring device BD11 is used to determine distances, areas and volumes in interior spaces. Indirect measurements are carried out employing the Pythagoras function.
The multi-line, illuminated displayindicates the determined values.
Owing to the dust- and splash-proof housing (IP54), the device is also suited for use on construction sites.
Measuring distance
The range of the device can be gathered from the Technical data chapter. Under certain conditions – e.g. at night, in twilight or when the target is hidden in the shade – greater distances are possible even without target plate. During the day use a target plate to increase the distance for poorly reflecting targets.
Target surfaces
There might be measurement errors when the laser encounters colourless liquids (e.g. water), dust-free glass, styrofoam or other semi-permeable materials. The measurement result may also be falsified if the laser encounters a high-gloss surface and is deflected by it. Non-glossy, non-reflective or dark surfaces can extend the measurement duration.
