This symbol on the device or the package indicates that disposal of the device after its lifecycle could harm
the environment.
Do not dispose of the unit (or batteries) as unsorted municipal waste; it should be taken to a specialised
company for recycling.
This device should be returned to your distributor or to a local recycling service.
Respect the local environmental rules.
If in doubt, contact your local waste disposal authorities.
• This tachometer for professional use consists of long-life high-quality components and the housing is made of
light but rugged ABS plastic. The device handles comfortably thanks to the ergonomic housing.
• Wide measuring range and high resolution.
• Clearly legible LCD display.
• The last displayed value and the min/max values are automatically stored in the memory and can be displayed by
pressing the memory (MEM) button.
• Indicator for low battery voltage

3. Memory Button (MEM)
The last measured RPM value is automatically stored in the memory. Look at the example in figure 1 on page 2:
DTO6234N_v2 VELLEMAN
Three values are stored in the memory:
measuring time = meetduur = durée de mesurage
min. value = min. waarde =
last value = laatst gemeten waarde =
• Press the MEM button to display the maximum value, the minimum value and the last measured value
respectively.

4. Battery Replacement
a. the battery symbol ( ) is displayed when the batteries need to be replaced (battery voltage < ± 5V).
b. open the battery compartment and remove the old batteries.
c. insert 1 x 9V battery. Faulty installation can permanently damage the device.
d. remove the batteries if the device is not to be used for some time.

6. Use
Attach a small strip of tape to the target surface. Press the MEAS to switch on the tachometer. Select whether to
measure the RPMs (RPM) or the revolutions (REV) with the MODE button. Point the tachometer at the strip of tape
and hold the MEAS button pressed. The indicator should appear on the display when you point the beam at the
strip of tape.
7. Measuring Tips
Reflective Tape
Cut a square of tape of ± 1cm² and attach it to the target surface.
• the piece of tape should never cover more than half of the target area.
• a target surface that is reflective of its own accord should be painted black or covered with black tape prior to
applying the tape.
• make sure the target surface is smooth and clean when you apply the tape.
DTO6234N_v2 VELLEMAN
Measuring Low RPMs
It is fairly easy to measure fast speeds. When measuring extremely low rpm's you would do well to apply several
squares of tape to the target surface. You can then divide the displayed value by the number of squares.
Also note that this technique makes for more precise measurements as the measuring error is now also divided by
the number of squares of tape.
Use this device with original accessories only. Velleman nv cannot be held responsible in the event of
damage or injury resulted from (incorrect) use of this device.
